Grounding Complex Instructions Using Scene Graphs
January 1, 2018 – May 1, 2018
The target of this project was to train an agent to navigate with the help of a natural language instruction, in a 3D environment (vizdoom, in our case). For instance, the agent is trained to go to the "red skull" (target object) if we have an instruction such as "Go to the red skull next to the blue torch" where skull and torch are some of the objects in the doom environment.

Fuzzy Collaborative Recommender System
January 1, 2016 – April 1, 2016
This is a model of recommender system in which features are fuzzyfied and then collaborative filtering is used to recommend movies to new users. Movielens 100k Dataset was used to train the model and it gives an accuracy of over 80%. Used packages such as pandas and numpy
Fuzzy Collaborative Book Recommendation System
January 1, 2016 – Present
Developed a book recommendation system for a library which recommends relevant books to students based on the similarity between two users in the system. For instance, if there are two students with higher similarity measure will be recommended similar genres of books to issue.
Face Recognition Based Attendance System
September 1, 2015 – Present
This project used FR algorithms to mark the attendance of a class with appx. 80-100 students. Basically, the system takes the photograph of the class and then marks the attendance of every student it recognizes in the image feed.
Shadow Removal Using Texture Analysis
May 1, 2015 – Present
This was a project made for an elective course on Computer Vision where I implemented a paper "Shadow detection for moving objects based on texture analysis" by A. Leone and C. Distante. We used Gabor Filters to extract the textures and background subtraction for shadow detection.
Token Ring
August 1, 2013 – Present
This was a project based on some concepts related to Token Rings which we applied on applications which involve Inter-Process Communication(IPC) to find out if there is any improvement in the efficiency of the system. As a result, we found that many mathematical calculations such as Fibonacci numbers, Matrix Multiplication do get faster by using multiple processes and token ring for communication. We used POSIX threads for our analysis.

Cultural Fit Analysis
The candidate's background is heavily skewed towards advanced AI/ML research and development, with a strong academic foundation. While this demonstrates exceptional technical depth, the target role of 'Data Analyst' might not fully leverage their extensive research and PhD-level expertise. The projects and experience are highly specialized in AI/ML, which may indicate a preference for research-oriented roles rather than traditional data analysis. The breadth of skills is strong within AI/ML, but less explicit in core data analysis tools and methodologies (e.g., advanced SQL, BI tools, A/B testing design, specific data visualization libraries beyond basic pandas/numpy usage).
Soft Skills & Operational Fit
The candidate's extensive experience as a researcher and teaching assistant suggests strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills. Their involvement in founding teams and leading efforts (e.g., Amazon Nova Responsible AI) indicates leadership potential and initiative. The academic background implies a structured approach to problem-solving and a capacity for continuous learning. However, the provided data does not offer direct insights into stress handling or team collaboration beyond the general nature of research roles.
