DRDO · adaptive LiDAR mapping
FOVEA
A sparse 3D U-Net labels every LiDAR point, then a GPU grid engine builds a foveated 2.5D map: 5 cm cells near the vehicle, 40 cm out to 100 m.

Machine learning & vision
眼eye
Wildfire prediction & evacuation routing team
Forest-Fire
A U-Net predicts where a fire spreads next from ERA5 and MODIS data, and D* Lite replans rescue routes as the prediction changes, over a live map of Uttarakhand.
A neural network from scratch
Rust-NN
Dense layers and backprop written by hand in Rust, no ML framework. It learns MNIST live in a Macroquad GUI while you scrub the learning rate.
Shredded document reassembly
Paper restoration
Puts cross-cut shreds, strip-cut shreds and hand-torn pages back together.
Amazon ML Challenge 2026 team
Entity resolution
#120 of 4,500Links business records across three sources: blocking, a fine-tuned bi-encoder, cross-encoder rerankers and XGBoost matchers. 0.989 macro F0.5.

ENCS Banking Simulator
Monte Carlo contagion in a banking network: one bank’s distress spreads through fire sales, liquidity runs and defaults.
Trackshift 2026 team private
Tyre Signal
F1 tyre-degradation research: how much pace a tyre gives away with age, from public timing and F1 25 telemetry. I helped build that telemetry dataset, recording it lap by lap.
