Postgraduate Researcher

University of Malaya

·

Oct 2023 - Sep 2024

  • AI-driven healthcare deep learning model for myocardial infarction detection using AP4-echocardiogram videos, running frame-by-frame analysis.

  • Utilized a pre-trained U-Net model to segment the left ventricle from A4C echocardiogram frames and extracted contours for GLS analysis.

  • Optimized an existing LSTM model to classify myocardial infarction from GLS time-series data across six ventricular regions, resolving performance and bug issues to make it workflow-ready.

  • Explored and utilized machine learning/deep learning libraries, including PyTorch, OpenCV, TensorFlow, and Scikit-learn, for model development and optimization.

  • Bridged communication between cardiologists at UiTM Hospital and the technical team, translating clinical jargons into computational requirements and ensuring alignment between medical expectations and technical implementation.
