I have participated and won in a number of hackathons. Some of the interesting hacks include "A augmented reality translation app" which detects english text, translates into Hindi and overlays onto the initial text, "CV Miner" which helps companies shortlist resumes of potential employees, this is done by mining unstructured data from the resume and applying ML classification techniques. The other interesting hacks include "Route prediction for late packages" and "Severe event detection" using crawled data.
I am an avid book reader and love to play squash. In my free time you can often find me playing chess or listening to music or just hacking away at some new technology.
