About

Machine Learning | AI for Engineering | Filtration Optimization I have a strong background in machine learning, deep learning, and AI-driven optimization for filtration systems. My expertise lies in applying data-driven insights and cloud solutions to enhance product design, improve efficiency, and drive innovation in industrial applications. Key Highlights: 🔹 SmartFE – AI-Optimized Filtration: Built ML-driven workflows to optimize filter design, reducing development cycles from months to weeks. Deployed on Azure with a Streamlit interface for real-time AI recommendations. 🔹 autoDHC – ML for Filter Media Performance: Predicted pressure drop & dust holding capacity (DHC) using Darcy’s Law & regression models, integrating ANSYS CFD simulations and MLflow tracking. 🔹 AI Segmentation of Fibers (CT Scans): Developed a 3D U-Net deep learning model to segment mixed fibers in filter media CT scans, deployed as an Azure-based batch-processing system. 🔹 autoGrid DP – Predicting Pressure Drop: Created an ML tool to estimate pressure drop in irregular filters, extracting C1 & C2 resistivity coefficients via clustering & regression for CFD simulations. I am passionate about AI-driven engineering solutions, constantly exploring ways to improve predictions, optimize designs, and enhance performance. Looking forward to connecting and collaborating on cutting-edge innovations!
