In this project, the goal was to understand the influence of COVID-19 on social media discourse using Twitter. As a global and free platform for discussion, understanding the COVID-19 discourse on Twitter can provide public health scientists, economists and policy makers insights on the impacts of COVID-19.

Tasks:
- Classification (Hand-engineered features, Bag of Words, BERT features)
- Topic Modeling
- Trend Analysis
- Spatial Analysis
- Exploratory Analysis

Univate is a platform to connect, support and mould young student activist leaders in our community. This collaboration platform allows student activists to access resources, connect with other organizers and archive content.

Designed an intelligent agent that plays a complex two-player board game called Halma with carefully curated heuristic functions

We developed a robust framework that would detect anomalies from 13 anomaly classes including assault, accidents, arson etc in real-time thereby providing maximum security and benefit to the user. We also developed a specific anomaly detector that can detect road accidents through traffic surveillance cameras and trigger notifications to emergency services/ medical centers/police control rooms for quick response. The system is backed by a comprehensive data analytics platform that manages… Show more

We also developed a specific anomaly detector that can detect road accidents through traffic surveillance cameras and trigger notifications to emergency services/ medical centers/police control rooms for quick response. The system is backed by a comprehensive data analytics platform that manages historical data to provide insights and patterns to the user.

Tasks : Data analytics and Visualization, Data Collection, Video processing, Augmentation and Streaming, Database Management, Modeling Deep Learning Framework, User Interface Design and Web Application Development.

This project successfully found the underlying patterns in the daily load profiles of individual households using the K-Means clustering algorithm. It also extracted insights with respect to the user's electricity consumption behaviour.

In many developing countries, government programs targeting the poor face the
problem of identifying who they really are because income is usually unobserved for the
very poor. This project aimed to develop an algorithm to make significant improvements in identifying poor households in the population.
Tasks : Pre-processing, Feature selection, Model Selection, Evaluation and Performance Comparison

Designed a compiler which performs lexical analysis, syntax analysis, semantic analysis and intermediate code generation for the specific evaluation of arithmetic, trigonometric, mathematical and logical expressions including their combinations.

Computing devices have become an integral part of our lives . A suitable interface design for the
elderly users would facilitate efficient usage of computer resources which will improve their quality of
life. We designed a desktop environment customized for the elderly by making it simple , easy
to use and effective keeping in mind all the current problems in interface design for the same target
group. In addition , the design is evolvable as the environment is expected to learn… Show more

India is a home to nearly 20,000 startups. The startups being founded by young, first generation entrepreneurs often find it challenging to connect to the relevant players of startup ecosystem which includes technical domain experts, HR, markets, business services, networking platforms . This project proposes to come out with a comprehensive digitized platform for startups aiming to make a mark on this competitive ecosystem. The project aims in creating a registry for various startups with search ability and filtration techniques to spot and know about a startup based on location, domain, product, service offerings, valuation, investors from the perspective of an end user. Basically, the project indexes startups and provides different views and access privileges to different class of users. Show less
