WORK

Research Intern

LUMS Computer Vision & Graphics Lab
Animal Detection in Camera trap Images & Image Deraining
Developed a deep learning pipeline for wildlife detection in camera trap images using YOLO and U-Net, reducing false positives caused by rain artifacts.
Built and trained a U-Net model for rain detection and integrated it with a YOLO-based object detection pipeline, achieving 98% rain vs animal classification accuracy.
Designed a synthetic dataset of 10,000+ rain-degraded images and implemented a CNN-based kernel estimator to improve image recovery from rain deterioration.

RAG Wikipedia Chatbot

Built a retrieval-augmented generation chatbot that dynamically fetches and indexes Wikipedia articles using a ReAct agent, grounding every answer in retrieved facts. Implemented the full RAG pipeline: Wikipedia ingestion, document chunking, local HuggingFace embeddings (BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5), vector indexing, and semantic similarity retrieval. Deployed session-isolated multi-user chat interface with model switching (LLaMA 3 / DeepSeek) via async Python and Chainlit's per-user session management.

Urdu News Article Classification

Machine Learning Student

Scraped and curated 1,000+ Urdu news articles from Geo Urdu, Jang, and Express News across five categories: business, entertainment, sports, science-technology, and world. Cleaned, standardized, and vectorized the text data, then trained logistic regression, multinomial Naïve Bayes, and neural network models for multiclass classification. Achieved a peak test accuracy of 97.4% with the neural network; multinomial Naïve Bayes reached 96.4%, and logistic regression reached 95% test accuracy.
