Data Scientist specializing in machine learning and AI applications.
What I'm looking for
I am a passionate Data Scientist with a strong foundation in machine learning and AI technologies. My academic journey culminated in a Master's degree in Data Science from NUST Pakistan, where I developed a hybrid CNN-RNN architecture for emotion detection using gait analysis, achieving an impressive 86% classification accuracy. My work not only showcases my technical skills but also my commitment to advancing the field of data science through innovative solutions.
Throughout my career, I have held various roles, including Sr Machine Learning Engineer and Machine Learning Engineer, where I specialized in dataset analysis, model optimization, and deployment using advanced technologies such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Docker. My experience includes fine-tuning AI models for domain-specific applications and conducting training sessions to enhance team proficiency in NLP and audio technologies. I am dedicated to leveraging my skills to solve complex problems and contribute to impactful projects.
