Projects

šŸ§‘ā€āš•ļø Cough Sound Classification (Healthcare AI)

Designed and developed a machine learning system to classify cough sounds into various disease categories, including asthma, croup, pneumonia, LRTI, URTI, and normal.

šŸ” **Tech Stack**: Python, MobileNetV2, MFCC, Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD)
šŸ“Š Achieved 70% accuracy using a lightweight CNN model (MobileNetV2) trained on MFCC images extracted from audio data.
šŸŽÆ Purpose: To explore AI-based non-invasive techniques for early disease screening via cough analysis. This project contributes to affordable digital healthcare solutions, especially in rural areas.

🌿 Coconut Leaf Disease Detection (Agricultural AI)

Built a computer vision model to identify five common diseases in coconut leaves: caterpillar damage, drying of leaflets, flaccidity, leaflet bending, and yellowing.

šŸ” **Tech Stack**: Python, Deep Learning, CNN, OpenCV
šŸ“· Captured and processed images of infected leaves, applied image pre-processing techniques, and trained a CNN classifier to predict the type of disease.
🚜 Purpose: To empower farmers with an easy-to-use mobile tool for early detection and treatment of crop diseases, enhancing agricultural productivity.
