Projects

MCQ Generation using T5 & Distractor Generation using Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Question Generation
NLP
LLM
RAG
HF Transformers

A multiple-choice question generation system using a T5 Transformer model combined with retrieval-augmented generation for distractor generation. Fine-tuned with SciQ corpus and a custom domain-specific corpus created from a Cambridge Biology textbook and constructed a vector-based retrieval pipeline to generate semantically relevant distractors.

Air-written Burmese Alphabet and Numeral Dataset

Computer Vision
Dataset
Python
OpenCV

This dataset was created for an OCR system that can recognize air-written Burmese symbols. It includes all Burmese alphabets and numerals recorded in 83×84 resolution, with 30 images per character.

Burmese Alphabet and Numeral OCR

Computer Vision
OCR
Python
OpenCV

An OCR system that recognizes air-written Burmese alphabets and numerals using webcam-based finger tracking and machine learning. Built a real-time model predicting Burmese symbols from gestures.

Student Information System (SIS)

Backend
Python
Flask
Bootstrap

A server-side rendered web application built with Flask. It provides functionalities like assigning students and teachers to class sections, calculating marks, managing courses, and generating academic records.
