def obsession(self):
return "Real problems → impact"I'm a third-year Computer Science student at Brainware University, Kolkata (SGPA 8.79) — specialising in AI and Computer Vision.
I've built systems that detect eye conditions without hardware, classify live traffic in real time, read market sentiment from raw text — and a complete personalised AI fitness platform powered by Claude AI.
I trained in Cryptographic Security at the Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata under a MeitY programme — and completed Qualcomm's Deep Tech Entrepreneurship course with a perfect 100% score.
I'm not interested in average things. I'm obsessed with the intersection of precision engineering and real human impact.

Ignite What You're Made Of.
Problem: Generic fitness plans ignore individual physiology. Solution: 7-step AI onboarding computes BMI, BMR, TDEE per profile → 30-day adaptive programme.
Powered by Anthropic Claude AI as in-app health coach. 3 progressive phases (VITAE → KRATOS → ZENITH). Gamified badge vault, streak counters, 30-day calendar. Full PWA — installable on iOS & Android.
Problem: Refractive error detection requires expensive equipment inaccessible to billions.
Software-only smartphone screening using photorefraction — n=92, r=0.9857, avg error 0.241D, 85.9% within ±0.5D.
Proprietary research — no hardware required. OpenCV + MediaPipe real-time pupil tracking, 5-level severity classification. Paper authored, advancing toward clinical trials.
Problem: Manual traffic monitoring is slow and error-prone in high-density urban environments.
YOLOv8 pipeline classifying 5 vehicle types from live feeds with REST API reporting. Built at Samsung R&D Institute, Kolkata.
Production-grade CV pipeline detecting two-wheelers, sedans, SUVs, buses and trucks — engineered inside a live R&D environment with professional engineers.
Problem: Manually reading thousands of customer reviews is a bottleneck for product teams.
NLP pipeline classifying reviews as positive/negative/neutral with real-time visualisations and CSV batch upload.
HuggingFace Transformers + VADER pipeline with interactive Plotly dashboards. Instant polarity analysis at any scale.
Problem: Sales teams waste time chasing low-probability leads without data-driven prioritisation.
GBM classifier scoring leads 0-100%. Real-world inspiration: 12% ROI improvement, Rs. 2.5L+ incremental revenue at MyGlamm.
Trained on 1,200 synthetic leads — full pipeline analytics and model explainability dashboard with feature importance visualisation.
"Precision over speed. Always."
Identify the real problem before writing a single line of code. Most failures are diagnosis failures.
Build with precision — every architectural decision is intentional, every trade-off is considered.
Test against real data. Measure outcomes, not assumptions. r=0.9857 or it ships again.
Deploy, monitor, iterate. The work is never truly done — only the version number changes.
"The path is made by walking."
Enrolled in B.Tech CSE at Brainware University, Kolkata. Currently maintaining 8.79 SGPA.
Market research across 50+ stores. 12% campaign ROI improvement, 18% customer acquisition rise, Rs. 2.5L+ incremental revenue.
Delivered production-grade Vehicle Classifier pipeline integrating YOLOv8 with REST APIs in a live engineering environment.
Built and deployed Ocular AI, Vehicle Classifier, Market Sentiment Analyser and Sales Lead Scorer — all live.
5-day MeitY-funded intensive on Privacy Preserving Cryptography, Advanced Encryption & Zero-Knowledge Proofs.
Qualcomm Deep Tech Entrepreneurship — 100% score. Microsoft × Simplilearn MS Excel. SEBI Financial Literacy Quiz 2026.
Launched IGNIS — full-stack personalised fitness platform on Next.js + Supabase + Claude AI. Upgraded Ocular AI to v2 on Vercel.
Completing B.Tech CSE. Actively seeking AI/ML roles, research collaborations, and ambitious problems worth solving.
"Tools are only as sharp as the mind wielding them."
"The best collaborations start with a single message."
Open to AI/ML roles, research collaborations, freelance projects, and conversations worth having.
