I am experienced in Data Science / Health Data Science / Machine Learning / Computer Vision. I'm currently building on a few machine learning projects. I aspire to do software engineer work as well, and am currently learning C/C++.


Experience

Deep Learning Research Assistant

Carl E. Ravin Advanced Imaging Laboratory

A one-year-long project that uses state-of-the-art objection detection machine learning tools, including YOLO, RetinaNet, Faster R-CNN, on breast cancer imaging. Currently I am implementing baseline CNNs to first detect benign/malignant images. Ideas that are going to be tested are FPN, Focal Loss, or Non-Local Network.
