Work Experience

College of Engineering Karunagappally (Feb 2021 - Aug 2021)
Project Fellow (KSCSTE)

KSCSTE funded Research project, "Development of a fully automated Indigenous software for Efficient Karyotyping for Chromosome abnormality detection", under Mrs. Remya R. S, Assistant Professor CSE Dept.

Research Highlights:

Used 30+ semantic segmentation models to compare and analyze the performance and developed a novel U-Net based lightweight encoder-decoder model with very good results, for the removal of interface cells from metaphase images.
Developed a novel translational Conditional-GAN model to perform segmentation of overlapping chromosomes.
Worked on enhancing chromosome metaphase images using image processing techniques and developed a technique to improve the classification performance to over 95% after enhancement.

Zellab Dynamics Pvt. Ltd. (Aug 2020 - Present)
Founder

Led the Engineering Team in developing a Multi-Tenant eCommerce Platform.
Defined and implemented product development standards up-to-date coding methodologies and best practices.
Defined the technology stack and implemented an agile development culture.
Designed and developed the User interface (UI) for the platform.
Developed a platform for Virtual conference management.

Publications

Deep Learning based Semantic Segmentation of Interphase Cells and Debris from Metaphase Images (In Production)

R S Remya, S Hariharan, Hari Prasad, C Gopakumar

(International Journal of Imaging Systems and Technology, 2022)

Inspired by the results of UNet, a lighter version L-UNet is developed and experimented with. It shows IoU (Intersection over Union) of 0.9809 and F1-score of 0.9903.

Chromosome Image Enhancement for Efficient Karyotyping

R S Remya, Hari Prasad, S Hariharan, C Gopakumar

(IEEE ICITIIT, 2022) https://doi.org/10.1109/ICITIIT54346.2022.9744195

Image processing methods are systematically extended for the preprocessing of chromosome images, and a novel approach for denoising and enhancing the chromosome images is proposed.

Projects

6 DOF Robotic Arm-based Extended Autonomous 3D Printer (2019 - 2020)

This Project solves the basic imitations of a 3D Printer by using a 6 DOF Robotic Arm. The Project overcomes several issues of conventional 3D printers by combining the Robotic Arm with the existing 3D Printing technology. The resulting System overcomes the dimensional limitation of the printed object using the help of a 6 DOF robotic arm. The final result is an extended 3D printer with the ability to print any sized object.

Internships
