About
I'm a Computer Science undergraduate who enjoys building software and exploring how things work under the hood. I'm always curious about new technologies and enjoy turning ideas into practical projects.
B.Tech. in Computer Science
Dayananda Sagar University · Expected 2027

Currently splitting my time between deepfake detection research and building full-stack projects while exploring different areas of software engineering. I'm evaluating spatial, temporal, and hybrid computer vision architectures to better understand what makes them effective for real-world deepfake detection. I enjoy balancing research with hands-on projects, experimenting with new ideas, and constantly learning along the way.

Projects

TaskManager
A Spring Boot integration layer for Trello: browse boards, view cards, and create tasks through a custom UI backed by the Trello REST API. Server-rendered Thymeleaf pages and JSON endpoints; no local database, Trello stays the single source of truth.
- Java
- Spring Boot
- Trello REST API
- Thymeleaf

PaperPilot
An AI-powered platform that converts uploaded research papers into publication-ready IEEE, Springer, or ACM formats without LaTeX expertise. LLM-driven analysis flags citation gaps and critiques each section, while a containerized LaTeX pipeline handles formatting and collaborative editing.
- React.js
- FastAPI
- Docker
- Groq LLM API

Node Eventa
A multi-page event discovery platform where users browse a live feed with date-based filters, view details, and register when logged in. Organizers publish events through a dedicated flow. Built with vanilla JavaScript and Supabase for auth, data, and registrations.
- JavaScript
- Supabase
- PostgreSQL
- REST API

Galactic Laser Tag Simulation
Built for the 2024 NASA Space Apps Challenge: an interactive site for a fictional microgravity laser tag tournament. An animated solar system hub with eight DOM-generated orbiting planets routes to station-specific schedules, rules, and a concept art gallery.

Benchmarking Deepfake Detectors: Comparative Analysis of Spatial, Temporal, and Hybrid Architectures
Benchmarks spatial, temporal, and hybrid deepfake detectors — including Xception, a 3D temporal network, and a transformer-based KGTT model — under one shared pipeline. KGTT reached over 95% accuracy, while a lightweight MobileNetV2 + TinyViT hybrid gave the strongest accuracy-to-efficiency trade-off, showing hybrid architectures generalize best.

Tests whether standard preprocessing — grayscale, deskewing, denoising, thresholding, morphological closing — actually improves Tesseract OCR accuracy, benchmarked on five clean SROIE receipt scans via CER/WER. Counter to most prior work, preprocessing increased error rates on these already-clean scans, arguing it helps conditionally rather than by default.
