Research Video Highlights

Selected short video highlights connected to my research projects.

Research on detecting vulnerabilities in distributed networks using tools i.e., Nmap & CVE mapping. Focused on building lightweight, automated frameworks for on-site threat detection.

Applied deep learning and transfer learning to diagnose prostate cancer from MRI scans. Combined medical imaging with neural networks to improve early-stage detection accuracy.

Designed blockchain-based access control systems for peer-to-peer networks. Worked with smart contracts, consensus protocols, and governance models for secure decentralized architecture.
