Projects
Research projects spanning XAI, biomedical applications, cybersecurity, RL, and visualization — most either published or under submission.
Computational Biology
XAI on Biomedical VLMs
2024–25 · Lead
GradCAM-based interpretability of BiomedCLIP on imbalanced radiology OOD. Surfaces failure modes and proposes clinical-robustness probes.
Biometrics & Cybersecurity
DepthPulse+ · Liveness Detection
2024–26 · Lead
Depth maps + rPPG vital-sign signals for robust face presentation-attack detection on print/replay/mask attacks. Continues MSc thesis.
Reinforcement Learning
RL for Imbalanced Biomedical Classification
2023–24 · Lead
Uses RL to learn per-class reward weights for imbalanced biomedical classification — a flexible alternative to hand-tuned loss reweighting.
Combinatorial Optimization
Multi-task Classifier Group Selection
2023 · Lead
Selects the best group of base classifiers for a given set of related tasks via combinatorial search over performance/diversity trade-offs.
Cybersecurity
Secret Messaging via MPC
2022 · Lead
Multi-party computation primitives composed for low-overhead covert messaging between mutually distrustful parties.
Tools / Visualization
Visualizing Temporal Interval Hierarchies
2024 · Front-end Dev · Smith ECE
Python Socket IO + D3 visualization for streaming PID controller data. Supports live formal-methods analysis.
NLP · Medical Education
Resident EPA Evaluation from Assessor Notes
2023–24 · BAM Lab · Cross-aff Faculty of Health Sciences
Automated extraction & evaluation of resident Entrustable Professional Activities from assessor notes — sentiment analysis + Spearman correlation against committee comments.
