Work History

Machine Learning Intern

  • Applied state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) such as gemma-2-2b-it, joeddav/xlm-roberta-large-xnli, and mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1 to perform zero-shot text classification on engineering reports, categorizing content into “Factual Information” and “Actions Recommended.”
  • Conducted preprocessing and tokenization of large datasets into sentence-level inputs; implemented batch prediction and data persistence pipelines using Python and Pandas.
  • Leveraged both rule-based filtering and semantic analysis to isolate and analyze relevant text segments from high-frequency technical documents.
  • Implemented unsupervised sentence clustering using HDBSCAN and TF-IDF vectorization; later upgraded to sentence embedding techniques using Alibaba-NLP/gte-large-en-v1.5 to improve semantic grouping accuracy.
    Tuned HDBSCAN hyperparameters (e.g., min_samples, min_cluster_size, distance metrics) to optimize clustering performance on sentence embeddings.
  • Built scripts to evaluate cluster cohesion using LLMs for semantic similarity scoring, helping to quantify the interpretability of unsupervised groupings.
