Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
I am a reliable professional eager to learn and looking for opportunities in AI/ML applications for engineering. I have more than five (5) years of engineering experience and have explored leveraging AI for various aspects of engineering analysis and design. During my co-op term at EPCOR Drainage, I assisted in optimising delivery procedure and capital project expenditure. In the last four years, I have dived into both geotechnical and hydrotechnical field. I had managed monitoring 300+ geotechnical instruments for major tailing and mine waste structures, participated in design for major tailing storage facilities in Canada and Dominican Republic, and assisted project managers with various project management tasks from proposal preparation to client communication to project closeout. Aside than geotechnical work, I have also involved in various water resources related projects across Canada from water crossing design, dam scour assessment and hydrology assessment.
Research focus: Automating Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) data processing for detection and classification of geomorphic processes using Machine Learning. other on-going research: -Alberta wildfire prediction with advanced convolutional neural networks in junction with Positive Unlabelled Learning (PUL) techniques. -Probabilistic inferencing for extreme flood events in SW Alberta using Bayesian neural networks. ----- Currently expanding my Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning knowledge skillsets through self-learning and graduate-level courses from the Department of Computer Science and Department of Software Engineering at the University of Alberta. I am applying such to applications in natural science and engineering. Relevant Courses taken: MEC E 788 - Advanced Topic in Artificial Intelligence: Applied Machine Learning in Engineering COMPUT 656 - Advanced Topic in Artificial Intelligence: Knowledge Graph
