Support Vector Machine
Project Link
Motivation:
Throughout my journey of learning and applying AI & Machine Learning, I encountered a challenge: the absence of an open-source library in C/C++ for Supervised Learning algorithms. Driven by my passion for Support Vector Machines and the underlying mathematics, I made the decision to embark on the task of building such a library from scratch.
The journey has been both lengthy and enjoyable. I encountered several challenges along the way, each of which I successfully addressed. Despite the algorithm functioning perfectly, I opted to use OpenGL for display, and I am currently focused on refining the accuracy of the display, an aspect that continues to be a work in progress.
As of now, this project is limited to binary classification; however, it has demonstrated an impressive capability by achieving 100% accuracy on linearly separable datasets.
I am committed to further developing this project and aspire to extend its capabilities to handle multiple classifications simultaneously.

Phishing Email Filtering
Project Link
Motivation:
During my research collaboration with Dr. Khethavath on phishing email filtering, I have chosen to publish my findings on HuggingFace. The objective is to showcase how Supervised Learning techniques respond to various types of features present in contemporary emails.
I utilize Streamlit as the user interface, enabling users to upload their emails in the .eml file format. Through this interface, they can then interactively explore:
1.What are the features extracted?
2.Whether it's a phishing email or not based on model prediction?
Throughout my research, the models I trained have consistently achieved an accuracy rate exceeding 80%. I am committed to ongoing refinement, ensuring the continued improvement and optimal performance of the models.
