Experience

Concept Extraction from Videos

A complete set of ML models to extract concepts from video data, including transcripts, audio tracks, thumbnails, and the actual video footage.

The concepts include:

• Emotions
• Activities
• Sentiment
• Objects
• Movement

Quantized Neural Network for Object Detection

This work was done as part of a project with a self-driving car company where the aim was to take a pre-trained model and try to run it as fast as possible and as light as possible to be used for real-time object detection.

The model used is a MobileNetV2 pre-trained model on ImageNet with an SSDLite object detector. We trained the model in an FP32 data format.

I applied several model compression techniques to reduce the model's size and monitor its performance.

Some of the methods we used are:
• Quantization
• Pruning
• Fused convolution
• Knowledge distillation

The work concluded that the model could reliably detect objects in images with the same accuracy as the FP32 version while going as low as the INT8 data format.

Casual Language Model Fine-tuning

Iteratively fine-tuned a GPT-like simple language model on a large dataset to be deployed on a blockchain network. The training procedure included using DeepSpeed for model parallelism and custom loggers for monitoring using the weights and biases service.

Legal Case Classification

This project was threefolds:

• EDA on unstructured messy text data to understand what can be done with the data

• Build a model that would classify a legal case based on the description entered into several categories. This part aimed to provide a tool to help lawyers classify cases faster and more easily.

• Extract the entities from the case description relevant to the classification to help counterarguments.

Custom Language Model Training Framework

https://github.com/pegesund/nor_bert

A dataset agnostic training framework for transformer-based language models, and this project was to help bridge the performance gap between English and non-English language models. The final library should be integrated into the famous SentenceTransformer NLP package to be used directly.

Multi-modal Text Classifier

A machine learning model for extracting multiple labels from input streamed text data and I oversaw building this model end to end. The objective is to use the output of this model as a feature for another classifier.

Twitter Sentiment Analysis

A text classification model that classifies the sentiment of a single tweet or a hashtag on Twitter, where the model is a transformer-based BERT model fine-tuned on a sentiment analysis dataset. The model is hosted using Streamlit.

Running Neural Networks on Edge Devices

https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/9664700

I developed a novel technique for successfully executing parts of a single model through multiple devices like IoT, edge, and cloud while respecting each device's resource limitations and for that, I introduced a new offloading mechanism where, during computation, a decision can be made to offload work, together with the ability to exit early in the computation with intermediate results, where the decision itself is tuned through deep Q-learning.

Norwegian Sentiment Analysis Model

A Transformer based neural network for classifying the sentiment of financial news into three main categories:
• Positive
• Neutral
• Negative.

The main difficulty was finding a good Norwegian labeled sentiment analysis dataset and fine-tuning an existing multilingual model.
