Portfolio

  • From CNNs to Transformers: Top-k Image Retrieval in a Competition Setting
    2025
    Machine-learning
    We implemented and evaluated multiple deep learning models, including CLIP, DINOv2, EfficientNet, ResNet, and GoogLeNet. Each model extracts feature embeddings from query and gallery images using a pretrained or fine-tuned encoder. Retrieval is performed by ranking gallery images according to cosine similarity with the query embedding. We tested both frozen and fine-tuned variants, and evaluated the impact of different pooling strategies (GAP vs. GeM) on retrieval performance.
  • Podcast Analytics & Recommendation Platform
    2025
    Big data technologies
    The system ingests both real-time events (from users) and batch transcripts + metadata (about podcasts), processes the data using Apache Spark, stores it in a Delta Lake, and then exposes structured insights and personalized recommendations via MongoDB to be consumed by frontend applications.
  • Israel–Palestine Conflict & Reddit Discourse
    2025
    Computational social science
    This project analyzes how public discussion on Reddit responds to real-world conflict events in Gaza and the West Bank. We combine data from Reddit (online discourse) and ACLED (verified conflict events) to examine temporal relationships using Python-based data science methods.
