Experience
AI Chatbot with RAG and Vector Search
Retail Sales Forecasting for Demand & Inventory Optimization
The system was built on historical sales, pricing, and inventory data. I performed exploratory analysis to identify demand trends, seasonal patterns, and correlations between variables. From this, I engineered time-based features (day, week, month, quarter), lag variables, and rolling-window statistics to capture underlying sales dynamics.
Multiple models were implemented and benchmarked, including Linear Regression and Random Forest for interpretable baselines, XGBoost for advanced ensemble performance, and LSTM networks for sequence modeling. Models were evaluated on R², MSE, RMSE, and MAE, along with computational efficiency in training and prediction.
The outcome was a robust forecasting pipeline capable of delivering accurate sales predictions and actionable insights for retail decision-makers. Key findings included the influence of pricing strategies and inventory availability on sales, providing guidance for procurement and stock management.
Multi-tenant AI Support Chatbot Platform
Speech-to-text Generative AI Chatbot
Crop Disease Detection Using Deep Learning
The project involved preparing a large dataset of crop images, organizing and splitting them into training and testing sets, and ensuring class balance for accurate model training. Using transfer learning with DenseNet121, I built a convolutional neural network capable of classifying multiple disease categories. The model architecture combined a pre-trained backbone with custom fully connected layers for multi-class prediction.
To optimize performance, I applied normalization, caching, and prefetching strategies for efficient training.
The model achieved high accuracy on unseen test data and provided robust predictions with class-specific probabilities. Additionally, I implemented a prediction pipeline to process new images and display results with confidence scores, making the system deployable as a practical decision-support tool.
