Research Projects
I have been fortunate enough to do research with friends and colleagues. Below are some of the research projects that I have done, under supervision.

In this research, I trained custom and pre-existing convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to find astronomical transient point sources in a small subset of images from Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics (MOA) survey between 2012 and 2016.

In this experiment, we explored the application of vibrational spectroscopy
methods, specifically mid-infrared (mid-IR) spectroscopy, to detect anomalies and homogeneity in pharmaceutical substances. Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) is the primary technique used in mid-IR spectroscopy throughout the course of this experiment. The primary objective is to detect the anomalies found in the given two powdered mixtures and to detect homogeneity by analyzing the unique vibrational fingerprints of four pure samples and comparing it to the mixtures.
