An IT undergrad (B.Tech) student from Kolkata, India and a member of Google's Women Techmakers since 2025 and IEEE Robotics and Automation Technical Committee on Machine Learning for Automation.
I'm an aspiring ML/DL Engineer with strong research interests in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, exploring how intelligent systems can be applied to real-world challenges. Alongside my passion for AIML, I have hands-on experience in Web Development and enjoy problem-solving through Data Structures and Algorithms.
"Currently seeking opportunities in Software Engineering and Machine Learning, and additionally in Data Science, where I can build impactful, data-driven solutions."
Research & Publications
Architectural Paradigms for Sovereign AI: Mitigating API Fragility through Quantized Low-Rank Adaptation and 1.58-bit Ternary Models
A rigorous methodology for deploying Sovereign AI through Small Language Models (SLMs) to mitigate API fragility. Investigates the synergy between 4-bit NormalFloat (NF4) quantization, native 1.58-bit ternary architectures, and Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) for specialized domains.
- ▹Achieved a 93% reduction in inference OpEx for 7B–14B parameter models.
- ▹Demonstrated a TCO break-even at 450 million tokens vs. proprietary APIs.
Isolating Synthetic Fingerprints: A Frequency-Domain Approach to Robust Deepfake Detection using 2D FFT and Lightweight CNNs
A novel, lightweight deepfake detection engine that isolates synthetic fingerprints in the frequency domain. Employs a micro-blur preprocessing pipeline to suppress superficial high-frequency spatial noise, followed by a 2D FFT to extract underlying spectral magnitude maps.
- ▹Achieved 99.12% accuracy on FaceForensics++ and 98.45% on Celeb-DF v2.
- ▹Outperforms spatial baselines at 45 FPS real-time inference on edge devices.
