Background
I am a Computer Science undergrad and researcher at IIIT Hyderabad, with a strong focus on Systems, Backend Development, and Algorithm Optimization. My work involves designing distributed databases, building custom operating system kernels, and analyzing complex network flows.
Technical Arsenal
02. Projects
ML-Driven Equity Trading Strategy
End-to-end quantitative trading pipeline with a 22-feature cross-sectional model across 100 equities. Rolling ensemble of Ridge + LightGBM + CatBoost achieving 410% cumulative return vs. 320% benchmark.
NLP Pipeline — iREL
Full-stack NLP pipeline extracting concept dependencies from code-mixed educational videos. Whisper ASR + GPT-4 extraction + DAG validation with interactive graph visualization.
Quantitative Research Suite
Credit risk modeling (0.9999 ROC-AUC), FICO score bucketing via L-BFGS-B optimization, commodity price forecasting with harmonic features, and gas storage contract DCF valuation.
PokéNetDB
A distributed relational database modeling complex datasets. Enforced data integrity using constraints, triggers, and stored procedures for analytical workloads.
C-Shell Implementation
Built a custom Unix shell in C supporting piping, I/O redirection, background execution, and robust signal handling using system calls.
xv6 OS Enhancements
Extended the xv6 kernel (RISC-V) with custom CPU scheduling policies and additional system calls. Developed kernel-level tests to evaluate fairness.
Distributed File System
A Google Docs-like multi-threaded file system enabling concurrent multi-user access over a network with strict locking mechanisms.
Max Flow Analysis
Implemented and benchmarked Ford–Fulkerson, Dinic’s, and Push–Relabel algorithms to analyze asymptotic complexity on diverse graph structures.
03. Roots
Origin: Ujjain
Hailing from the historic city of Ujjain, I find inspiration in the balance between ancient heritage and modern logic. Just as the Jantar Mantar (Observatory) in Ujjain was built to calculate time and astronomical positions with precision, I strive to build software systems that are precise, efficient, and enduring.
