Background

About

About

I'm a software engineer with extreme passion for research, Now I'm a research engineer in COM-IoT Technologies where I work on distracted driver detection and tracking, previously I was a part of the research team in Myocardial Solutions, Inc., my professional experience is mainly in research areas related to the usage of computer vision in 3D reconstruction of underwater scenes and cardiac segmentation from MRI, I'm also doing research in the use of NLP in enhancing text retrieval and query-focused multi-document summarization, and I'm a huge fan of Manchester United.
Research Area

Research Area

  • DeepSENC, Real-Time Left Ventricle Segmentation From Strain-Encoded MRI Using U-NET

    Oct 2015 - May, 2016 8 months

    We developed a novel pipeline for SENC images segmentation using a histogram based region proposal and a UNET for segmentation, and we were able to run this pipeline in real-time on a 4-core CPU.

Work Experience

Work Experience

  • Research Engineer , Myocardial Solutions, Inc.

    Jan, 2018 - Present2 months

    • Researching deep learning techniques for the automatic segmentation of the myocardium from MRI .
    • Used encoder-decoder networks like SegNet, U-Net.

  • R&D SW Engineer | Computer Vision & Deep Learning , MCS Enterprise

    Aug, 2016 - Jan 20176 months

    • Implemented a preprocessing tool for underwater image restoration to enhance feateure extraction, this tool is written in C++ .
    • Parallelized the implementation using CUDA and OpenMP.
    • Used a convolutional neural network (CNN) for better scene matching, achieved 86%, this technique had reduced searching time for matching scenes dramatically vs SIFT based techniques.
