Senior year, focused on web development and bioinformatics. Senior thesis was on temporal prediction of heart defects with the CheXchoNet dataset (CNN, AUC 0.79–0.84), supervised by prof Baseem Al-Athwari. Current research extends that toward waveform-level signals: non-invasive intracranial pressure estimation.

Senior thesis · Kyungdong University · Supervisor: Prof.Baseem

• Deep-learning model for temporal prediction of heart defects on the CheXchoNet dataset.
• Used CNNs to analyse chest X-ray data alongside temporal metadata.
• Achieved AUC 0.79 to 0.84.
• Pointed me toward waveform-level clinical signals, which the current ICP research builds on.

Ongoing research · Kyungdong University · Supervisor: Prof. Z. I. Mannan

• Training LSTM (bidirectional, attention), TCN, Transformer, and Hybrid models on ABP and CBFV waveforms (10 s windows, 125 Hz).
• Trained on PhysioNet's pediatric neurocritical-care waveform release; cross-dataset validation against PhysioNet CHARIS.
• Leave-one-patient-out cross-validation across 12 patients, ~18,500 windows.
• Best LSTM result: MAE 2.92 mmHg, median AE 1.97 mmHg, RMSE 4.03 mmHg.
• Stack: PyTorch, NumPy, Pandas, SciPy, custom WFDB / signal-processing pipeline.
