I worked on implementing deep learning code for three projects and led the development of two projects AgriVulture and Urvolution. AgriVulture(2018-2019): Collecting temporal multispectral data, and modeling deep learning/ computer vision tools to track the growth of crops in India from 2000-2017. Developed 3D CNN models for temporal modeling of farmlands in India Urvolution(2017-2018): Understanding the growth of urban infrastructure from 2000-2016 using high resolution satellite images. Collected and cleaned the satellite data for 5 major cities in India and trained a semantic segmentation CNN model Legal Document Summarizer: Using historic judicial documents to create summaries of new judicial proceedings in an automated way. Developed tokenization tools using regex, Part of speech tagging and baseline summary forming algorithm Show less

I worked under the guidance of Dr. V.K. Dhar and understood the utility and working of Energy based deep learning models. I also developed the implementation of Deep Boltzmann Machines and several functional wrappers for the model in MATLAB. I worked under the guidance of Dr. V.K.
