Research Scholar — Selected as 1 of 31 nationally

• Modeled attention allocation from EEG using machine-learning classifiers at the Centre for Neuroscience.
• Demonstrated that individual variability, rather than measurement noise, limits cross-subject decoding accuracy.

Cross-Session EEG Biometrics

Independent Researcher

• Developed DA-EEGNet for cross-session EEG biometrics using recordings from 83 subjects.
• Achieved 85.11% leave-one-session-out accuracy; submitted the work to IEEE TNSRE.

Project 2AS

Team Lead, AI

• Led AI development of EEG-based adaptive learning tools for autistic children.

Posthumous

Data Ethics · Machine Learning · Web

• Created a public archive writing individual letters to 620 anonymous subjects whose brainwaves appear in open EEG datasets.
• Each letter pairs an emotion classifier’s prediction with an explicit account of its unreliability, treating dataset subjects as people rather than records.
