Implemented Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient from first principles — actor-critic updates, experience replay, soft target network updates derived directly from the original paper. No library abstractions. Pure math. Bellman equations · Policy gradient theorem · Off-policy stability |
High-accuracy CNN for medical image classification on imbalanced clinical data. Studied architectural tradeoffs: depth, skip connections, pooling. Containerized with a real-time prediction interface. |
Farmer-first AI platform delivering real-time mandi price queries in Indian regional languages. Voice-based queries with on-device NLP via Ollama — built to work in low-connectivity environments. |
