Projects

AI Cricket Coach — Computer Vision Batting Analysis Platform, Python

OpenCV, MediaPipe, YOLO, PyTorch, Computer Vision 

A computer vision platform that transforms smartphone cricket videos into automated biomechanical analysis and coaching feedback using pose estimation and object detection.

  • Built an end-to-end AI pipeline that converts batting videos into pose analysis, impact detection, biomechanical metrics and automated coaching reports.
  • Integrated MediaPipe Pose (33 landmarks) with custom YOLO object detection models trained on 2,700+ labelled bat, ball and batter images.
  • Designed a hybrid dual-YOLO detection pipeline achieving 93–100% batter detection and up to 87% accepted bat detection on real batting footage.
  • Developed six biomechanical batting metrics, automated shot-phase detection and evidence-based coaching reports with prioritised improvement recommendations.
  • Engineered a modular Python architecture comprising 58 source modules, 14 command-line analysis tools, and 76 automated unit tests.
  • Implemented multi-stage ball tracking and temporal validation to reduce false positives and improve bat–ball impact detection reliability.
  • Built a human-in-the-loop validation framework supporting coach verification and future model calibration.

Technologies: Python, Ultralytics YOLO, Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, Git, Pytest.

AI Banking Risk Intelligence Platform, Python

FastAPI, MLflow, Docker, GitHub Actions.

Designed and developed a production-oriented machine learning platform for financial risk prediction using modern MLOps practices.

  • Built an end-to-end machine learning pipeline covering preprocessing, feature engineering, training, evaluation and deployment.
  • Achieved approximately 83% classification accuracy with 0.93 ROC-AUC using ensemble learning models.
  • Developed FastAPI inference services exposing production-ready prediction endpoints.
  • Integrated MLflow Model Registry for experiment tracking, model versioning and deployment management.
  • Containerised the platform using Docker and Docker Compose.
  • Automated testing and deployment using GitHub Actions CI/CD workflows.
  • Designed modular software architecture enabling future retraining and scalable deployment.

Technologies: Python, Scikit-learn, GitHub Actions.
