Directly responsible for: 
  • Developing MATLAB script to generate ~100 ground truth image masks for a machine learning training set
  • Learning code base, machine learning libraries (Keras and Tensorflow), model parameters, loss functions and optimizers to better understand and implement changes in the model
  • Updating code to reflect most recent Keras-Tensorflow integration
  • Utilizing remote shared computing cluster to make training 12 times faster and expand model capabilities
  • Utilizing TensorBoard library to visualize loss and accuracy per epoch
  • Successfully generalizing model to predict more accurate results in a mixed image dataset
