Hi, I’m Dipesh.

AI · ML · Computer Vision · NLP · Full-Stack Software · research & applied engineering

I’m an AI/ML researcher and M.S. Computer Science student at NYU, building computer-vision and language systems for scientific data, from two-photon neuron segmentation and cross-modal registration to GraphRAG retrieval. I also ship production software: as founding engineer at EEVSEC I built CyberSuraksha end to end, a school learning platform now onboarding its first three schools.

Research & Experience

Where I’ve worked

Founding Engineer · EEVSEC Private Limited

Apr 2026 - Present

eevsec.com · school cyber-safety & computational-thinking platform, Classes 3-10

  • Sole engineer on Cyber Suraksha, a cyber-safety and computational-thinking platform for Classes 3-10 now onboarding 3 schools; built on Next.js, TypeScript, and Cloudflare Workers over a 19-table multi-tenant Cloudflare D1 schema, with PBKDF2 authentication, hashed server-side sessions, and role-scoped student, teacher, and school-admin dashboards.
  • Shipped a Class 10 mathematics course spanning 18 interactive topics, 9 narrated animated lessons, and 95 auto-graded questions, plus 4 gamified Class 3 modules; grading runs server-side against a version-controlled question bank, with a single-attempt rule enforced by a database uniqueness constraint so marks cannot be replayed or forged from the client.
  • Engineered a retrieval-grounded AI assistant that answers student questions from course handbooks with inline source citations, plus progress rollups that report per-topic and per-chapter mastery to teachers in a single indexed read instead of scanning raw attempt history.
  • Hardened delivery with 45 automated tests and browser gates covering auth boundaries, grading integrity, layout regressions, and cross-browser media playback on Chromium and WebKit.
  • Designed and shipped eevsec.com end to end, a 20-page product marketing site covering product, pricing, and audience pages with responsive dark-mode layouts and search-optimized metadata, driving 500+ waitlist signups before launch.

Research Assistant · Neuroinformatics Lab, NYU

May 2026 - Present

New York, USA · two-photon neuron segmentation & cross-imaging matching

  • Built a two-photon neuron-segmentation pipeline for 3D reconstruction, converting 7,407 VIA polygons into Cellpose masks and linking z-slice annotations into 2,548 tracked cells for registration and model training.
  • Developed a soma-print spatial-registration model with Fused Gromov-Wasserstein optimal transport to match neurons across in-vivo and ex-vivo imaging, replacing ICP; achieved 95% rank-1 matching without rigid pre-alignment and 92% pooled rank-1 across datasets of 873 and 691 cells.
  • Fine-tuned Cellpose-SAM on 7,407 annotations from 75 two-photon images, raising leakage-controlled held-out ex-vivo AP@50 from 0.14 to 0.55.
  • Trained a unified Cellpose-SAM across 7 datasets with distributed GPUs, raising cross-dataset AP@50 from 0.28 to 0.40; reduced out-of-domain failure and standardized annotations with neuroscience researchers.

AI Engineering Intern · Dalhousie University

Oct 2024 - Dec 2024

Halifax, Canada · resume-job relevance modeling

  • Built an HR resume screener that assigns resume-job pairs to 3 relevance classes; trained a PyTorch CNN-Transformer with DistilBERT embeddings and 1D convolutions, reaching 94% held-out validation accuracy.
  • Generated weak labels by pairing 1,962 resumes with 1.6M+ job postings using TF-IDF skill similarity; used synonym augmentation, resampling, and loss tuning to reduce false positives and prioritize high-fit candidates.

Computer Vision Intern · Centre for Airborne Systems, DRDO

Dec 2023 - Jan 2024

Bengaluru, India · aerial object detection

  • Developed and fine-tuned an Oriented R-CNN to identify and classify small, arbitrarily rotated ground targets in aerial imagery using Midpoint Offset Representation and rotated RoI Align.
  • Optimized 1024×1024 inference with model pruning and CUDA parallelism, reaching 92.8% region-proposal recall and 15.1 FPS for near-real-time surveillance.
