Robust Estimation for the Erdős-Rényi Model

Oct 2024 - Dec 2024

  • Awarded Top Project in Robust Algorithms for Machine Learning for developing novel algorithms to estimate edge probability in adversarially perturbed Erdős-Rényi graphs.

  • Introduced the O(q,ε)O(q,\varepsilon)-adversarial model, and designed and implemented three novel robust algorithms

  • Conducted theoretical and empirical analysis to establish error bounds and runtime guarantees

Quantitative Analysis on the Socioeconomic Factors for Obesity

Aug 2024 - Aug 2024

  • Participated in the Citadel Invitational Datathon 2024

  • Conducted a predictive analysis on fast food access, socioeconomic factors, and obesity across U.S. states and counties

  • Developed and evaluated predictive models (e.g., Linear Regression, Random Forest, LSTM), identifying key obesity drivers using SHAP and LIME analysis

ImVisible/LYTNet (Publication)

Aug 2018 - Mar 2020

  • Designed and trained a novel lightweight CNN, LYTNet, to detect pedestrian traffic lights and position of zebra crossings

  • Achieved 30% lower error rate compared to existing methods (96% accuracy; angle error rate of 6.15), while running at similar inference speeds (16.34 frames/sec)

  • Coauthored 2 papers; keynote presentation at CAIP 2019 and poster presentation at ICCV workshop 2020
