Worked on addressing hallucinations in Large Language Models with post-editing models. The correction model I developed improved the factuality rate of multiple industry-leading LLMs by 10-15%. Additionally, I optimized the workflow to significantly reduce memory usage and cut inference latency by 87%.Read more on the link below.

Advisors: Prof. Gary Cottrell, Prof. Virginia De Sa, Prof. Taylor Berg-kirkpatrickWorked on building a more brain-like CNN at Gary's Unbelievable Research Unit (GURU). In short, this is achieved by using neural data to constrain the representations learned by the CNN which improves its performance on downstream tasks and against adversarial attacks.This.

Advisor: Prof. Melissa GymrekI worked on developing a haplotype-based fine-mapping tool that uses conditional regression models to pinpoint the sets of variants in a cohort of related individuals that are the most predictive of certain phenotypes.

Advisors: Prof. Kelly Frazer, Prof. Graham McVickerJoined Frazer Lab in the School of Medicine. My research focuses on using machine learning to predict the effects of genetic variations on enhancers and promoters. A journey into an unfamiliar territory of Machine Learning in Epigenomics.This is a collaboration project with the McVicker Lab at the Salk.

I worked on using Natural Langauge Processing and Graph Neural Networks in predicting the home locations of Twitter users using their tweets, profile metadata, and social network graph. This research has significant implications for various online services, such as targeted advertising, opinion mining, and event detection. Advised by Prof. Sanasam Ranbir.

This was my first formal experience in Machine Learning. The goal of this project was to explore the usage of Reinforcement Learning in the image classification task and compare its efficacy with existing Supervised approaches. Advised by Prof. Aditya Nigam.1. Designed a Reinforcement Learning (RL) based Image Classification pipeline in TensorFlow and.

1. Improved Shadow Analysis software runtime by 15% by optimizing the data processing pipeline and migrating CPU-intensive jobs over to GPU with CUDA and Python.2. Implemented a stochastic disaggregation procedure for generating synthetic sets of hourly solar irradiation values, suitable for use in solar simulation design work. Achieved a mean percentage.
