About me

Profile Image

In 7th grade, my parents set a lock screen on Windows XP because they believed that using a computer would lead me to neglect my studies. To overcome this, I installed Ubuntu on an SD card as a means to access the computer without needing the password. This was the starting point of my journey with computers.

In the 9th grade, I found myself drawn to the world of Android OS upgrading and began developing third-party Android ROMs. It was during this time that I realized the need to expand my knowledge in order to fully satisfy my passion. This realization ultimately motivated me to pursue a master's degree in computer science.

Covid-19 Fake News Detector

Conducted research on identifying misinformation about Covid-19 using Python and Spark. Utilized PySpark.ml to pre-process tweet data and employed GloVe 100D and Universal Sentence Encoder to map cleaned tweets to vector space. Trained the model using DNN from Spark NLP, resulting in a 91.89% F1-score. Implemented Spark-Streaming to detect fake news in real-time.

Reverse Visual Search

Designed an image search engine, implemented with Python and TensorFlow. Detected and cropped the facial part of images using multiple pre-trained neural networks. Constructed K-nearest neighbors indexes for images in a target dataset based on the extracted features. Searched the top similar images for the target image using KNN, and achieved 85% accuracy on the LFW dataset.

Salient Object Detection

Detected salient objects without prior knowledge by calculating regional contrast values, implemented the algorithm using C++ and OpenCV. Improved calculation speed by quantizing into 12 colors and computing pixel saliency in the CIELAB color space. Optimized pre-processing tasks for various computer vision applications to enhance efficiency on large industrial datasets.
