Projects and Brainchildren

InsightBot • Implemented a multi-layered RAG-based chatbot at UBHacking to query YouTube playlists. The video transcripts were fetched via YoutubeTranscriptsAPI, utilizing PineCone for vector storage and Llama LLM for generating contextual response.

Epidemic outbreak study using Sentiment Analysis and Predictive Modelling
• Performed sentiment analysis and classification on COVID-19 twitter dataset with BERT to demonstrate the enhanced contextual representation achieving a model accuracy of 95%.
• Devised a deep learning ensemble model trained using the stacked result set of predictions from TensorFlow’s CNN, LSTM and MLP to forecast COVID-19 cases resulting in a robust model with an average r2-score of 0.98.

PlagiaScan • Orchestrated a data structures and algorithm project to determine percentage plagiarism of a text document with an accuracy of 92% using the Rabin Karp algorithm and rolling hash data structure for string pattern matching.

GeoMapper • Developed a GIS-based web application using Leaflet to visualize and analyze spatial data, incorporating file upload functionality to process and display GeoJSON datasets.

PhishNet • Pre-processed over 5 lakh URL records and extracted relevant features to train machine learning models in Pyspark for phishing URL detection.Developed and deployed the solution as a web extension powered by a Flask server.
