Kunal Mehta

Dynamic Software Engineer with a proven track record at Oracle, skilled in Python and Java. Successfully built predictive models and innovative tools, enhancing performance analysis and reducing bottlenecks. Adept at collaborating in teams and delivering impactful solutions.

Designed and implemented a distributed object detection framework comprising frame extraction, concurrent object detection (via multiple Dockerized containers in a Kubernetes cluster), and frame combination.

Evaluated system performance by testing various configurations—adjusting the number of object detection servers and video quality—resulting in significant processing time reductions.

Analyzed scalability and optimization strategies for real-time object detection applications, providing insights to enhance accuracy and efficiency for fields like security, autonomous driving, and robotics.

Orca call detection using CNN and Spectrograms, 10/19, 03/20, Designed a CNN model and showed its effectiveness when combined with template matching, allowing us to reach an accuracy of 92% even after being trained on a limited dataset (https://ssrn.com/abstract=3572303)., Compared the accuracy with the following machine learning models: HMM, GMM, RNN, ResNet-512 and found CNNs to be the most effective.

Mastek's Deep Blue Plastic waste brand detection, Keras, Tensorflow, scikit-learn, Python, Git, Spearheaded a team of two, using Agile methodology, trained Faster R-CNN model that identifies 45 different brands of plastic with 86% accuracy., The model can differentiate between plastic and cardboard wrappers of the same brand having similar images., The Android application has been used by around 50 students and has significantly reduced plastic waste near University. E-commerce, PHP, CakePHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS, Git, Devised an eCommerce website leveraging CakePHP, an MVC framework, with search and order placement functionality., Developed standalone backend and frontend connected via an API interface and wrote automated tests using Selenium., Wrote unit tests and integration tests, GitHub actions, and created a CI-CD pipeline for automatic deployment.
