• Advanced Algorithms: Held weekly office hours for a class of over 40 students to guide the students betterunderstand the course material along with grading assignments.• Graduate Algorithms: Graded over 85 assignments or exams every week with detailed feedback.

• Proved that it is PSPACE-hard to approximate the Prophet Inequality problem under Matroid constraints.• Analyzed different approaches to approximate the Prophet Inequality problem with respect to Packing Integer Programs and Matching constraints.• Converted the project to a Master’s Thesis in progress to improve the approximation ratios.

• Published a paper in HCI International 2022 to demonstrate a noticeable gap between user perception and actual security awareness regarding QR Codes.• Conducted an anonymous survey to analyze the data of over 130 people to investigate user perception, awareness, and cyber-hygiene behavior towards QR Codes.

• Devised PhishMatch, a layered algorithm to detect phishing URLs directly in the browsers in real time.• Reduced memory consumption of the utilized pattern matching algorithm by a factor of 1.86 using novel ideas.• Developed PhishMatch as a Chrome browser extension which showed an accuracy of 99.51% using just 20 MBs of additional memory on real-world data as compared to a state-of-the-art deep learning framework with only 97.6% accuracy using over 200 MB of memory on the same… Show more • Devised PhishMatch, a layered algorithm to detect phishing URLs directly in the browsers in real time.• Reduced memory consumption of the utilized pattern matching algorithm by a factor of 1.86 using novel ideas.• Developed PhishMatch as a Chrome browser extension which showed an accuracy of 99.51% using just 20 MBs of additional memory on real-world data as compared to a state-of-the-art deep learning framework with only 97.6% accuracy using over 200 MB of memory on the same data.• Documented the novelties in PhishMatch and the bench-marking results in a 23-page journal-style paper on arXiv.
