@yasinduliyanage
Data science and computer vision engineer focused on practical impact.
What I'm looking for
I am a motivated data scientist and computer vision engineer specializing in building practical, production-ready solutions using deep learning, classical ML and modern tooling. I have contributed to industry internships and multiple projects — from vision-based vehicle and activity recognition to time-series forecasting and generator performance analysis — consistently delivering actionable insights and improvements.
My academic background in Computer Science & Engineering (specializing in Data Science & Engineering) and a minor in Mathematics underpin my technical work. I combine hands-on experience with Python, TensorFlow/PyTorch, YOLO/OpenCV, OCR tools and web/database stacks to produce models, datasets and systems that solve real-world problems and accelerate decision-making.
