Robotics & 3D Printing Internship Projects
During my R&D internship at New Bedford Research & Robotics, I developed and deployed robotic solutions, including automated pick-and-place systems, object position prediction, and custom 3D-printed components.
One of the highlights was using the robot in a ribbon-cutting ceremony event, which was covered in local news.

RAGNovel: Retrieval Augmented Summarization and Question Answering of Literary Texts
This project utilizes an end-to-end Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) model powered by LangChain, alongside traditional NLP techniques like TextRank, SimHash, and MinHash to summarize and analyze literary texts. Results demonstrate that RAG outperforms traditional methods in both summarization and question answering tasks.

Calorie Counter Application using NoSQL
This project is a calorie tracking app that allows users to log meals, track calorie intake, and receive health feedback. It features CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations for meal management, user registration, and integrates with a food database. Built with Python, Kivy, and MongoDB, the app helps users monitor their health over time.

Time Series Analysis for Gold Price Forecasting
This project analyzes gold price trends using historical data and applied SARIMAX and LSTM models for forecasting. Results highlighted SARIMAX is better accuracy in capturing patterns, revealing factors like seasonality, demand, and mining challenges impacting gold prices.
This project experiments with derivative-free optimization methods in MATLAB to estimate VFA T1 mapping in MRI. Results demonstrate that Novifast outperforms traditional techniques in both accuracy and speed, providing efficient T1 estimation even under varying signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs).
