Projects

I have done a couple of cool projects. Find them here.

1. Automatic sentiment, brand identification and headline generation pipeline

This was done as a part of a InterIIT Tech Meet’21 challenge. We made this over 25 days in a team of 7. We were awarded a Silver medal among top teams from 18 IITs. More info here

2. Reproducing BioBERT paper for NER task

This was done in an effort to become more familiar with finetuning BERT on harder tasks like NER. Starting from scratch, I tried to finetune BERT on the datasets used in the paper. Moreover I wrote accurate evaluation scripts which can be a bit confusing in NER. More info on Github here

3. Twitter BERT Visualizer

The idea here is to visualize the public opinion around a hashtag in a convinient and semantic manner. I built a system to retrieve some recent tweets of a hashtag, pass them through BERT to get embeddings and then plot them in 2D using T-SNE. Gives a nice plot with tweets arranged according to their sentiment. Sample plot here. More info here
