Experience

Optical Character Recognition for Cursive Unsegmented Character

https://github.com/tmbdev/ocropy
OCR (Optical Character Recognition) for cursive characters is a challenging task for any machine learning researcher. Recurrent neural networks have demonstrated promising results on cursive connected characters. This project aims at using neural recurrent networks for unsegmented character recognition from images.

Object Detection and Tracking

Developed a module to detect specific objects inside images and track them across long video sequences. The module is used for tracking markers in crash tests of automobiles.

Movie Genre Analysis (Machine Learning/Data Mining)

Developed a python framework to extract main keywords from movie scripts. This data is then used to represent the movies as a Bi-Partite graph. These Bi-Partite graphs are later used for cluster analysis to see if similar genre movies form a cluster

Text Detection in Natural Scenes Using MSERs (Machine Learning/System Programming)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiYfxU68k3U
Python/OpenCV project to localize text in natural images and videos using Maximally Stable Extremal Regions (MSER). A demonstration of this project can be found at [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiYfxU68k3U]. (tried through a 8 mp mobile phone camera)
