Research and critical technology development for iDocument project. The project involves building software for
taxonomical classification of electronic documents based on their content. The goal of the project is to properly index
the documents for better searching ability. Also there were additional benefits of integrating the core engine with MS
WORD so as to catalog the documents when created.

Responsibility/Description
Research about Machine Translation techniques and in
particular about techniques using parsing. Evaluation
of the translation process is crucial for improving
translation techniques using parsing. Our project
contributes to the process by enhancing Multi-Tree
Viewer, a toolkit developed by NLP lab at NYU in

Build a website for online survey using session
variables for controlled navigation through the survey
pages.
The project is about collecting and analyzing statistical
information about how users react to different
scenarios. The project was done as part of the course
in User Interface Design.

Implementing the research paper – Fast queryoptimized kernel machines using incremental
approximate nearest support vectors.

Improved the idea by improving computational
complexity thus saving computational time.

Implementation was done in MATLAB using SVM
package and C as supplements.

Research the intrusion detection techniques that
use data mining.

Understand how contrast classifiers (a special
technique that uses unlabeled data to improve
classification prediction).

Use the contrast classifier technique for building
network intrusion predictor. The data used was
from University of California, Irvine KDD cup 1999
data.
