Work Experience
MS in Computer Science - IIIT Hyderabad (July 2018)
1) Multi Agent Reinforcement Learning in Pommerman
Pommerman is a multiagent game where you use 2 cooperating agents to play against 2 competiting agents and partial observations of the agents and communication between cooperating agents. We first use the agent provided by them which used graph algorithms to take an action and make an imitation model for our agents. The infrastructure uses CNN to encode the grid data and lstm for the inclusion of previous timesteps and runs a actor critic model to train. Then we play our agents against different kind of agents and our own agents(curriculum learning) to improve our actor critic model .
2) Constructing an AI to reduce errors in track detection in flights PAN India
We first use hybrid clustering and use it along with the input data. We construct a POMDP ( Partially observable markov decision process) structure and learn the transitions through ensemble learning of SVM, xgboost and LSTM which gives the confidence in our data point and then cluster the seperated tracks of a single flight together.
3) Find objects in images
We use a combination of 4 cues - edge density, multi scale saliency, superpixel and color contrast to find the windows containing objects and then use non max suppression sampling to find the optimal windows and train a naive bayes model with a training set of window corner locations.
4) Scene Text Detection
We use stroke width transform in an edge map and use connected components to detect text in natural images like sign boards on roads. We then identify the characters using spacing and recognize words in the text using Resnet neural network architecture.
