Projects

Federated & Distributed ML
01

Federated Text Classification with Blockchain Logging

Modular federated learning system using DistilBERT across 3 clients with FedAvg aggregation. Integrated blockchain-inspired logging for traceability. Achieved 81.5% accuracy (+1.7% vs centralized baseline) on AG News.

Reinforcement Learning
02

RL Tennis Agent

PPO agent trained to compete in a Unity tennis environment. Designed a 13-feature observation space and 4-action policy with custom reward shaping and TensorBoard monitoring.

Natural Language Processing
03

Multi-Task NLP Toolkit

Multi-task NLP system covering sentiment analysis, zero-shot classification, semantic similarity, and extractive QA. Built modular pipelines with interactive Gradio interfaces.

Machine Learning
04

Diabetes Prediction Model

Predictive models on the Pima Indians Diabetes dataset. Applied preprocessing, cross-validation, and compared Logistic Regression vs KNN performance.

Extended Reality
05

VR 3D Word Puzzle

Immersive VR word puzzle game with 3D mechanics, object interaction systems, and spatial audio cues — merging gaming with cognitive challenges.

Game Development
06

3D Shooter Game

Physics-based 3D shooter demonstrating player control systems, projectile mechanics, and core gameplay loop design.

Research

Technical PaperComputational Complexity · AI Planning

Boolean Satisfiability Problem (SAT)

A technical paper on the Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) problem — a foundational NP-complete problem in computational complexity. Analyzed CNF transformations, brute-force vs. optimized solving approaches, and the role of SAT solvers in AI planning, constraint solving, and automated reasoning.
