Autonomous Drone for Nuclear Safety Inspections Capstone (2023)

Designed and developed a cutting-edge drone for nuclear safety inspections. Equipped with CV object detection (YoloV5), the drone can read critical data from radiated zones, while its visual SLAM enables accurate localization, RRT* allows for obstacle-free path planning and precise way-point motion planning for navigation through these zones.

RoboSoccer Fieldline Detection (2020)

Developed a computer vision software using Python, OpenCV, and ROS for soccer field line detection. Utilizes a point cloud approach for improved accuracy, with 2D points transformed to 3D points in the robot’s frame of reference, allowing for definition of field lines with known thickness.

MakeUofT - Best Unconnected Hack (2020)

Designed and created an innovative autonomous flower pot that uses computer vision and environmental sensors to track and move toward optimal sunlight and water locations.

TOHacks - Winner (2018)

Programmed an android app using IBM Watson API to deliver a satisfying user experience for connecting top applicants with top companies.

NoFADE: Analyzing Diminishing Returns on CO2 Investment

Published in Climate Change with Machine Learning workshop at 35th Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS2021-CCAI), 2021

Climate change continues to be a pressing issue that currently affects society at-large. It is important that we as a society, including the Computer Vision (CV) community take steps to limit our impact on the environment. In this paper, we (a) analyze the effect of diminishing returns on CV methods, and (b) propose a \textit{``NoFADE’}: a novel entropy-based metric to quantify model–dataset–complexity relationships. We show that some CV tasks are reaching saturation, while others are almost fully saturated. In this light, NoFADE allows the CV community to compare models and datasets on a similar basis, establishing an agnostic platform.
