I build AI automations that do real work: LLMs wired into business workflows, n8n pipelines that remove manual steps, and models trained well enough to win.

ner-pk: named entity recognition for Pakistani news

A fine-tuned XLM-RoBERTa-large model that finds 20 kinds of entities in Pakistani news text: people, government bodies, political parties, laws, CNIC numbers, money and more.

Training data came from two LLM labellers with agreement filtering, plus synthetic pattern sentences, trained in two stages. A regex rules layer and a document-level consistency pass sit on top, and it ships as a CPU-ready command-line tool that reads text, JSONL or CoNLL.

    Smart EV Charging Station Planning

    Two linked problems on a Karachi road network. Kruskal with Union-Find builds a minimum spanning forest and repairs it after road failures; an exact 0/1 multiple-knapsack DP assigns charging requests to stations within capacity. About 340 automated tests and a Next.js results dashboard.

    Student Mental Health Screening System

    PHQ-9 and GAD-7 screenings with risk levels, advice and counsellor booking; high-risk results alert counsellors. Built around Singleton, Factory Method and Strategy patterns and documented with ten UML diagrams.

    Object-Oriented Analysis & Design · Java 17 / Spring Boot / React / Supabase

    EchoLens, an AI research assistant

    A cross-platform assistant on the Gemini API that researches the web in real time and answers with citations, to cut hallucinations. OTP sign-in, saved history, PDF reports and usage limits.

    Team project · Flutter / Gemini / Firebase

  4. 05

    API Incident Triage Expert System

    A rule-based "virtual SRE". You describe what's broken and answer a few yes/no questions; a forward-chaining engine with 60+ hand-written rules names the root cause, the failing layer, the fix and its reasoning.

    Smart Parking DFA Simulator

    An interactive deterministic finite automaton for a parking controller: each sensor event is an input symbol, with an animated state diagram, step-by-step trace and Mealy/Moore outputs.
