Projects

IndieFake Dataset (IFD): Worked as part of my B.Tech final year project (Capstone Project). Developed IndieFake Dataset (IFD), a dataset for detecting audio deepfakes in Indian contexts. Evaluated deepfake detection models (such as LCNN, MesoNet, and RawNet3) using IndieFake against benchmark datasets like ASVspoof21 and ITW.

Work Experience

Accenture: Contributed to Amazon’s Clinic Project. Assisted in launching the Coupon‐Code feature, enabling patients to book in‐person consultations.
Samsung (Internship): Got to know about data padding in compilers and how it results in the allocation of additional memory. Optimized memory utilization of header files containing C structures using Python.
