Erie, PA
05.2025 - Current
  • Synthetic Data Generation: Created 3,000 emails (1,000 per domain; 50% phishing) using Claude 3.5, simulating realistic threat patterns for the healthcare, financial, and retail sectors.
  • Data Preprocessing: Cleaned and structured datasets by removing missing values and duplicates using Pandas; ensured high-quality inputs for modeling and LLM inference.
  • Chain-of-Thought Prompt Engineering: Designed structured reasoning prompts to guide LLMs (GPT-4, DeepSeek, LLaMA, Gemini) for accurate phishing vs. legitimate classification.
  • LLM-Based Evaluation: Benchmarked and compared model performance across domains using classification metrics—precision, recall, F1-score.
  • Deep Learning Integration: Utilized TensorFlow and PyTorch for baseline model comparison and feature vector analysis alongside LLM outputs.
  • Domain-Aware Threat Analysis: Identified the most effective model for each domain, and extracted domain-specific phishing indicators from classification results.
  • Experimentation and Automation: Conducted all experiments in Google Colab, and automated workflows from data preprocessing to model inference and evaluation.
  • Excel Reporting and Visualization: Generated automated XLSX reports and comparison charts (via XlsxWriter and Matplotlib) to visualize model accuracy and domain effectiveness.
