Research on EEG-based depression detection using deep learning architectures. I mainly work with AWS to ship useful AI products and workflow automation.

AI/ML Researcher at SVNIT (NIT Surat) focused on shipping production systems with end-to-end ownership.

I handled solution design, implementation, and delivery while collaborating with cross-functional teams to align engineering execution with business goals.

Scope: Research on EEG-based depression detection using deep learning architectures.
Ownership: architecture, implementation, and rollout
Context: high-impact business workflows and reliability requirements

Project 1

Business problem: Manual or slow workflow was limiting business throughput.
My contribution: Designed CNN-LSTM hybrid architecture for EEG-based depression detection achieving 90% accuracy — 15% improvement over state-of-the-art baselines.
Technologies: Python · TensorFlow · AWS EC2 · CNN-LSTM · Jupyter
Outcome: Delivered measurable reliability and speed improvements.

Automation Pipeline

Business problem: Manual or slow workflow was limiting business throughput.
My contribution: Engineered distributed TensorFlow training pipeline on AWS EC2, reducing training time from 12 hours to 7 hours.
Technologies: Python · TensorFlow · AWS EC2 · CNN-LSTM · Jupyter
Outcome: Delivered measurable reliability and speed improvements.

Challenge
