- Developed a modular algorithm for black border classification and distance mapping using R-tree spatial indexing and connected component analysis, enabling automated focus correction in eBeam-based reticle inspection systems - Optimized image acquisition and inspection workflows by implementing multithreaded spatial processing and synchronization, achieving a speedup of ~32% for real-time inspection use cases in high-throughput eBeam systems - Integrated algorithm into RSARTE modeling software, ensuring seamless data flow through the software stack, and validating functionality across simulators and live inspection tools to support real-time focus correction.
- Guided 60 students in circuit prototyping, microcontroller programming & device development through skill demos - Mentored teams in designing and implementing semester-long projects and fostered inventive problem-solving skills - Created 9 labs that test basic circuitry, pulse width modulation, communication protocols, & interrupts mastery.
- Led weekly office hours to accommodate 200 students with special day-long sessions for course review. - Created lab slides and guides, homework, quizzes, and exams on Digital Logic, LC-3 processor, assembly, and C. - Wrote Python testing scripts to auto-grade submissions for LC-3 assembly and C programming assignments.
- Tutored NCAA athletes for introductory Math courses like Calculus I and II
- Developed a 3D-CNN model to predict future instability in experimental Nuclear Fusion chambers using spatiotemporal features from a live video feed, reducing technical monitoring hours by 60%. - Identified salient features using advanced data visualisation techniques such as Class Activation Maps and Feature Importance, and applied heuristic methods to improve model evaluation and interpretability. - Deployed face tracking and emotion detection on an AI-powered video kiosk by layering MediaPipe and DeepFace libraries, tracking 10+ emotions and maintaining object permanence for every individual in the frame.
