Hello World! I'm Shoumik 👋

Profile picture

I build things because curiosity won't let me sit still, and I break them because Stack Overflow said it should work 😅. I love solving real problems, chasing clean abstractions, and learning things I swear I already knew last semester 📚. I forget to push to GitHub, but not before I write a README that says "WIP" for six months 📝🤡. (def not written by GPT )

Research and Projects

Memz AI (Hackathon Build)

Co-authors: Yash Jain, Kushal Konad, Rushil Desai

2024

MemZ uses AI to bring memories to life, transforming the way Alzheimer's patients interact with their past.Tools and Frameworks used: NeRF Studio, AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, EC2, React, Typescript, Groq, Hume.

Mechanistic Interpretability of Vision Language Action Model

Co-authors: Amil Dravid, Bear Haon

2024

Applied existing Mechanistic Interpretability techniques to retrieve interpretable visual and language representations of ascending VLA model reasoning informing final VLA model output [robot actuation commands]. Engineered novel interventions- inspired by existing Mechanistic Interpretability techniques - to make VLA models safer.

Spatial Mapping of Entities Using WIFI

Co-authors: Nihal Bonia, Wills Stern

2023

Developed an automated novel neural-network architecture and pipeline, aimed to quantitatively derive insights on router placement. Inspired from DensePose From Wifi(Geng, J. et.al)

Xnet: A Novel Generative Deep Learning Architecture for Fast MRI Reconstruction

2022

Developed pipeline for simulating subsampled sparse k-space data, for fast MR reconstruction. Designed and developed a new GAN architecture, to simulate L-1 loss, via TensorFlow, with two groundbreaking innovations: introduction of a new perception loss function, and cross pollination of tensors. (ACM Cutler-Bell Winner)

AutoDC: Automated data-centric processing

Co-authors: Zac Yung-Chun Liu, Scott Tarlow, Akash Nair, Shweta Badhe, Tejas Shah

2021

An automated data-centric tool (AutoDC), similar to the purpose of AutoML, aims to speed up the dataset improvement processes. In our preliminary tests on 3 open source image classification datasets, AutoDC is estimated to reduce roughly 80% of the manual time for data improvement tasks, at the same time, improve the model accuracy by 10-15% with the fixed ML code.

A Modular Framework to Predict Alzheimer's Disease Progression Using Conditional Generative Adversarial Networks

Co-authors: Shounak Roychowdhury

2020

Designed and engineered a series of CDCGANS simulating the rate of progression of Alzheimer's Disease and the atrophy of the brain over time. (Published IEEE IJCNN 2020)
