PAL
RAG Chatbot
  • Engineered an Internal Policy chatbot, deploying RAG pipeline, resulting in a 40% reduction in policy-related inquiries and saving 25 hours per week for the HR team.
  • Orchestrated creation of data connectors and mount points for departmental blob storages, including Active Directory onboarding and cloud data migration
  • Integrated internal identity access management with the cybersecurity team, ensuring secure authentication processes
  • Developed a comprehensive data ingestion pipeline, including document parsing, metadata extraction, data cleaning, semantic chunking, embedding models, and vector indexing
  • Architected a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline with LangChain and GPT-4 Turbo for chat functionality, evaluated using RAGAS framework
  • Designed and executed unit test cases for each component, ensuring reliability and quality
  • PAL
    CLIP FOR AUTOMOTIVE PARTS
  • Collected a comprehensive dataset consisting of high-resolution images of automotive parts, ensuring diversity in components
  • Initial annotations are done using vit-gpt2-image-captioning and Azure Cognitive Services , quality of annotations has been maintained by manual verification and edits
  • Albumentations are used for Data augmentation and Adopted the CLIP architecture
  • Explored the potential for transfer learning by adapting the fine-tuned CLIP model for specific automotive applications, such as automated inventory management, quality control, and part identification in assembly lines
  • Implemented interpretability techniques, such as attention visualization, to provide insights into the model's decision-making process, enhancing trust and transparency in its predictions
  • PAL
    Quality Check Recommendation System
  • Implemented a Recommendation System for Predictive Quality, significantly enhancing failure prediction. Achieved a 30% reduction in rework.
  • The motivation is to develop a recommendation system using collaborative filtering to recommend the component failures during assembly in the production plant in-order to reduce the finances on rework rate
  • Created profiles based on unique vehicle configuration and calculated defect rate of failures
  • Also used Association rules and DBSCAN clustering to find the associated failures

    Lane Segmentation for Country Road Scenarios
  • Volunteered to enhance the Lane Segmentation model, optimized performance for country road and rough road scenarios improving F-measure by 7%
  • The idea is to improve the performance of the lane detection for country road scenarios using ERFnet and PIDNet architectures
  • Challenges are to overcome the scenarios like Sharp turns, adverse weather conditions and non stability of the input camera mounted on truck for off road
  • Fine-tuned MAXIM model for low light image enhancement and adverse weather conditions
  • Collected and augmented data to overcome uneven data distribution for sharp turns
  • PAL
    Orientation Aware Scene Text Detection
  • Conducted research and developed an architecture for orientation-aware scene text detection, resulting in a patent and improving text detection F-measure to 93%
  • The motivation is to develop a Text Detection architecture which should be able to detect the orientation of the text from (0 to 360 degrees) along with the Text Instance
  • As part of our research , developed an architecture which is able distinguish the text between 0 and 180 degrees.This helped us to extend our pipeline to identify the orientation of the text from (0 to 360 degrees) without disturbing the text instance detection
