    Predicting Workload Instability in Cloud VMs

    Solo project · M.S. AI, UT Austin

    Rather than react to CPU thresholds after they're crossed, this project models VM telemetry to predict spikes before they happen, forecasting whether a cloud VM will exceed 85% CPU within 15 minutes. A Random Forest reached 99.66% accuracy, and SHAP analysis identified short-term workload momentum as the dominant signal.

    • 99.66% Accuracy
    • 0.9999 ROC AUC
    • 0.964 F1

    Improved Pneumothorax Classification using DCGAN Augmentation

    Solo project · M.S. AI, UT Austin

    A DCGAN synthesizes pneumothorax chest X-rays to balance a scarce SIIM dataset, and a ResNet-18 classifier is fine-tuned on the augmented data, reaching 98.6% accuracy and a perfect ROC-AUC. Grad-CAM and t-SNE confirm the model learned real clinical features.

    • 98.60% Train Accuracy
    • 1.000 ROC AUC

    Mitigating Answer-Length Bias in Fine-Tuned ELECTRA

    Solo project · M.S. AI, UT Austin

    A single ELECTRA-small model is fine-tuned on SNLI and SQuAD, then evaluated past its headline scores. The model degrades on long answer spans, with exact match dropping from 81% to 60% past six tokens. Targeted oversampling recovers some long-answer performance at a measurable cost to overall accuracy.

    • 90% SNLI Accuracy
    • 85.9% SQuAD F1
    • 78.1% SQuAD EM
