Developed a hybrid ensemble–deep learning framework for credit card fraud detection on highly imbalanced transaction data. Built and evaluated multiple machine learning models including Logistic Regression, Random Forest, SVM, XGBoost, and a custom Deep Neural Network architecture. Applied SMOTE-based oversampling, feature preprocessing, hyperparameter tuning, and model optimization to improve fraud detection performance. Designed a Deep Learning + XGBoost hybrid model achieving 0.77 F1-score, 0.79 PR-AUC, and real-time inference latency suitable for production environments. Implemented the solution using Python, PyTorch, Scikit-learn, XGBoost, Pandas, NumPy, and Machine Learning pipelines. Collaborated with a team member to conduct experimentation, performance analysis, and comparative evaluation on the Kaggle Credit Card Fraud Detection dataset.

About

Computer Science graduate specializing in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, with a passion for building intelligent systems that solve real-world problems. I have hands-on experience developing and deploying machine learning solutions using Python, PyTorch, and modern AI frameworks. My key projects include a Retinal OCT Analyzer that achieved 94% accuracy on a dataset of 84,000+ medical images and a Heart Disease Prediction System built using end-to-end machine learning pipelines. My technical expertise includes Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Python, Java, SQL, Data Structures & Algorithms, PyTorch, and AWS Cloud technologies. I enjoy tackling complex challenges, optimizing model performance, and developing scalable, data-driven applications. I hold the Oracle Generative AI Professional certification and the Amazon Web Services Cloud Practitioner certification. Additionally, I have solved 100+ coding problems on LeetCode to strengthen my problem-solving and software engineering skills. Currently seeking opportunities in AI/ML Engineering, Software Engineering, and Data Science, where I can contribute to impactful projects, continue learning, and grow as a technology professional.
