Akash C
@akashc
Applied Machine Learning professional specializing in energy-prediction models and interpretable regression solutions.
What I'm looking for
I am an applied Machine Learning professional focused on building robust regression models for real-world energy consumption prediction, with hands-on experience in end-to-end ML pipelines for smart city applications.
At Cochin University of Science and Technology I contributed to an RUSA 2.0 funded AI/ML research project, developing season-specific models and evaluating algorithms including CatBoost, Random Forest, XGBoost, Gradient Boosting, and linear models to optimize R² performance.
I emphasize model interpretability through feature importance analysis and residual diagnostics, and I am actively seeking AI/ML roles where I can apply predictive modeling, energy analytics, and scalable ML solutions to impactful domains.
