Prediction of Optimized Route for a Ship Traveling in a Seaway using Artificial Intelligence

• Developed and implemented a reinforcement learning model to optimize ship routing, minimizing travel time and enhancing safety by considering dynamic weather and ocean conditions.
• Utilized Deep-Q Network (DQN), Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO), and Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) algorithms, incorporating stochastic weather data and hydrodynamic factors into the simulation environment.
• Achieved significant reductions in travel time and wave heights, demonstrating the effectiveness of AI in dynamic maritime route optimization.

Art Generation with Neural Style Transfer

• Implemented Neural Style Transfer(NST) to generate a new Image from two different Images with the content of one image and with the style of the other.
• Used the Pre-trained VGG-19 Model to recognize a variety of low-level and High-level features
• Separately defined the Content Cost and Style Cost functions and took the relative weightage to Optimize the model

Wordle Solver | AI

• Solving popular five-letter word guessing game, Wordle using Information Theory and entropy.
• Deciding the best word based on information gained and choosing at each level to finally land on the target word.
• Added term frequency weightage to decide to guess the best possible most frequently used word.
• Created a Graphical User Interface to take manual input or choose the best possible next word.

Deep Audio Classifier | Deep Learning

• To identify which areas of forest have the greatest density of capuchin birds using audio clips of bird calls.
• Converted the audio data to waveform and transformed it into a spectrogram using Fourier Transform.
• Visualized the spectrograms and identified the unique signal patterns of capuchin birds.
• Built CNN model on spectrograms to classify whether it's a capuchin bird call (Binary classification).
• Predicted and counted no of capuchin bird calls in a given test audio clip and got an accuracy of 94%.
