Education: 2005 (Anticipated) Master of Science (Computer Science) Rochester Institute of Technology, NY. Current GPA – 3.5/4 1998 – 2002 Visveswariah Technological University India B.E. (Computer Science & Engineering) First Class with Distinction Skill Set: Languages: C#, Java, VB.NET, ASP.NET, C, C++, Transact SQL, VC++ Databases: SQL Server 2000, MS Access Operating Systems: Windows XP, NT / 2000, 98, Linux, Unix, Application Tools: C#, Visual Basic. Net, ASP. Net, Matlab Configuration / Source Control: VSS (Visual Source Safe) Web Servers: IIS 6.0 Reporting Tools: Crystal Reports 8.0 Research & Projects Genetic algorithm for Rock, Paper and Scissor. Implemented Genetic algorithm in C# in a game of Rock Paper and Scissor in a way such that Computer learns the strategy or pattern with which the human is playing and as the game progresses the computer wins more number of times. In basic rock paper scissors game where truly random games allow each player to win 33.3% of the time and puts a GA to work to find strategies for real human players. Real humans do not play randomly and as a matter of fact; strategies have been devised for this game. Technology: C#, Windows2000 Phone Book Flat Database: Implemented a flat database of phone book in C# accessible locally or as a web service, both, from an application and from a web page using Facade Design Pattern. Created web pages using ASP.NET.Database is represented as a List of tuples, i.e., arrays of as yet unknown objects with some methods for adding tuples, returning array for matched tuples on some criteria, removing the tuples by the Match argument. Match and Report are types intended to conceal what the tuples mean, i.e., they should be delegates that are applied to one tuple at a time Technology: C#, ASP.NET, Windows2000 Automatic Object Tracking and Interpretation in Video Sequences (AOTIVS). Implemented AOTIVS to detect, track and classify both salient and non-salient objects in video sequences. Modeled and interpreted the object’s behavioral activities. The objects may include individuals, small groups of individuals, crowds and vehicles. Modeled behaviors will be used as a video indexing method. During the first phase of the project a stationary camera will be used to collect the video sequences. During the second phase networks of collaborating cameras and non-stationary cameras will be used. Technology: Image Processing Toolkit in Matlab. Crowd Detection to detect the gross motion of a crowd using optical flow algorithms and then many different activities could be determined from it like disturbance in crowd. Technology: Image Processing Toolkit in Matlab. License Plate Recognition in Matlab. The idea is to extract the license plate from a given image and then draw a rectangular box around it. The strategies adopted for extracting the license plate are extracting the candidate regions of license plate (white background), Template Matching, Region Growing. Character Recognition using Neural Networks in Matlab. A network is designed and trained to recognize the 26 letters of the alphabet and 10 digits (from 0-9). Technology – Neural Network Toolbox in Matlab. Knowledge of various Design Patterns in C# like Factory, Façade, Model View Controller etc. Professional experience: HandsOn Technology & Engineering July 2002 – June 2004 India Junior Design Engineer Worked on all phases in Product Development Cycle like Feasibility of Idea , Requirement Analysis and Specification, Design & Implementation, Change management, System integration testing. Involved in the project Heart Attack Monitor and Asthma Predictor that predicts Heart attack, asthma attack and monitor fitness level of the user. I was involved in design and development of Communication module between the front-end and the back-end. Technology used- C#, SQL Server 2000 Defence Research & Development Organization Feb 2002 – June 2002 India Research trainee Developed PC Based Radar Analog Display. The idea is to realize a raster scan display system that emulates an analog display. Analog monitors are those with high persistence, on which the dot with appropriate intensity, depending on the strength of radar return signal is displayed. The information then could be used for operations like search and track the targets. Technology – VC++(DirectX),Windows NT. Extracurricular activities: President of editorial board of Computer Science Departmental Students’ chapter. Awarded with a certificate from Indian Association of Physics Teachers for being in top 1% in IAPT exam. Awarded Certificate for securing the first prize in Carom championship in college. Participated in college festivals (dramatics).
