Projects

Research Projects

Backdoor Attacks on Fine-Tuned Llama-LLM for Twitter Sentiment Analysis
This project focuses on studying backdoor attacks on a fine-tuned Llama-LLM model used for Twitter sentiment analysis. The project code is provided in the "alpaca-fine-tuning twitter sentiment 1.6M.ipynb" Jupyter notebook. The goal is to investigate the potential vulnerabilities of the model to backdoor attacks and explore the use of the Alpaca LoRa framework for model quantization. Model Weights available @ HuggingFace HuggingFace.

Real-Time Bangla Finger Spelling for Sign Language
The Real-Time Bangla Digit and Alphabet Detection project aims to develop an advanced computer vision system capable of accurately detecting digits and alphabets in Bangla sign language. Leveraging the power of YOLOv5, a state-of-the-art object detection algorithm, this project will enable real-time recognition of Bangla sign language gestures for digits and alphabets. The system's ultimate goal is to utilize these real-time detections to spell out words, enhancing communication and facilitating meaningful interactions for individuals with hearing and speech impairments.
Training and Dataset Available @ RoboFlow Roboflow.

Enhancing Face Captioning using facial attributes
The goal of this project is to generate accurate and descriptive captions for facial images using a combination of facial attributes and natural language processing techniques. By incorporating facial attributes, the model can generate more contextually relevant captions for each image.
Dataset Available @ Zenodo Zenodo.
