Sea Weather Prediction Model

Tools: Python, scikit-learn, XGBoost, Random Forest, LSTM, Pandas, Matplotlib

• Built a machine learning pipeline to predict beach and sea weather conditions for fishermen and beach visitors using environmental and oceanographic datasets.
• Implemented Random Forest, XGBoost, and LSTM models, evaluating accuracy and robustness for time-series forecasting.
• Applied interpolation and statistical imputation to handle missing values, improving dataset completeness and model performance.

Real-Time AI Inference Diagnostics Tool

Tools: Python, PyTorch, OpenCV, NumPy, Pandas, torchvision, JSON, PIL

• Engineered a real-time image classification system using ResNet18 that processes live webcam input and tracks model confidence for each prediction.
• Integrated entropy-based uncertainty quantification and confidence-gap analysis to flag low-confidence outputs for review.
• Logged flagged predictions with associated metadata (top predictions, confidence scores, confidence gap, entropy, timestamp, image snapshot) in JSON format for downstream retraining and debugging.
• Designed for deployment in embedded AI environments, including robotics and edge vision systems, to mitigate silent model failures.

CommentGuard – WordPress Spam Detection Plugin

Tools: JavaScript, PHP, WordPress Plugin API, HTML, CSS

• Created a WordPress plugin that detects automated spam by monitoring user interaction patterns such as typing speed and clipboard pasting events.
• Developed server-side validation hooks in PHP to block suspicious comments in real-time based on client-side behavioral signals.
• Combined browser-based human activity detection with backend enforcement, significantly reducing automated spam with minimal false positives.
