Teaching Assistant for "CS104 - Applications of Information Communications Technologies (ICT)" course.

Worked on a research project between Intelligent Machines Lab and ETRI (South Korea) on 3D reconstruction and neural rendering.• The group focused on 3D computer vision, neural rendering, neural radiance fields, and real-time 3D reconstruction.• To train and benchmark novel 4D radiance fields, we developed a synthetic 4D temporal dataset featuring multiple highly realistic indoor scenes in the Unity3D Game Engine using the Perception toolkit.• The dataset incorporates various animations and physics-based 3D interactions, generating ground truth data for different modalities, including RGB-D sequences, Videos, Segmentations, and Rt transformations.• Iteratively evaluated our dataset on state-of-the-art 3D reconstruction models (SfM, COLMAP) and neural radiance fields (NeRF, 3D Gaussian Splatting) to ensure high-quality 3D reconstruction of a given time stamp.• Trained, Tested, and Benchmarked temporal view syntheses models like, Dynamic 3D Gaussian Splatting and D-NeRF: Neural Radiance Fields for Dynamic Scenes on our dataset on Large-Scale Distributed GPU Clusters.Under the supervision of Dr. Mohsen Ali (PhD, University of Florida USA) and Dr. Rehan Hafiz (PhD, University of Manchester UK).

• Worked on a research project as a collaboration between LUMS and Imperial College London on a psychotherapy chatbot for the Urdu language.• Developed an Urdu language psychotherapy chatbot for mental health support.• Leveraged state-of-the-art NLP and HCI techniques to integrate sentiment analysis, embedding generation, and language processing for Urdu, fine-tuning models such as BERT, MuRIL, GPT-2, Whisper (OpenAI), and M4T on our custom Urdu dataset to enhance their performance.• Developed the entire backend of the chatbot in Python, collaborating with a team to design a user-friendly interface using Flutter for seamless user interaction specifically designed for native Urdu speakers.Under the supervision of Dr. Agha Ali Raza (Ph.D., Carnegie Mellon University USA), Professor Abbas Edalat (Professor, Imperial College London UK), and Dr. Syed Ibrahim Ghaznavi (Ph.D., Imperial College London UK).

Engaged in immersive research on the application of VR in pain management, produced technical reports about the BOLT EV Mobile app, contributed articles on the subject of quantum computing, and participated in the development of a holistic electric vehicle ecosystem.

Python instructor for Seed Programming, a company that aims to introduce young children to programming. Helped many students in learning the basics of Python from the start, encouraging their coding passion and developing their skills in a positive learning environment. Helped students to build logic and visualize the working of Python code with graphics using the Pygame library. Structured and managed the entire content of this 3-month course including lectures, documents, assignments, quizzes, and more.

Developed a Hyper Casual Game named “Eat Your Greens” for Rookie Game Jam 2021' while working in a team of 4 members including developers, designers & artists.As a part of Fellowship training, I learned 3D Modeling, Texturing, Shading & tools such as 3D Max, Unity Engine, and developed soft skills.Explored Game Development /Design/Art training modules in mentorship sessions with experienced professionals from the industryGained understanding of gaming industry dynamics, teamwork, management, and insights into a professional working environment.Click the link below to view my Game Project named “Eat Your Greens”.-> https://youtu.be/kSm2oakPqYQ
