- Probabilistic Modeling & Latent Space Geometry: Architected a custom von Mises-Fisher Mixture Model (vMFMM) via Expectation-Maximization to cluster 128-dimensional hyperspherical embeddings from ArcFace/CCE losses — 98% Top-4 Macro recall, 85% Top-1 Macro, a 1–5% improvement over Euclidean GMM baselines across 6 architectures on 500K+ images.
- Data Pipeline & Incremental Learning: Engineered a 200-day continuous learning simulation benchmarking 6 ML architectures (XGBoost, SVM, Random Forest, etc.); demonstrated peak accuracy within a 50-day window, directly informing deployment timelines and data collection strategy.
- Hyperparameter Ablation: Executed ablation studies across 380K+ training samples; statistically validated a 5-component vMFMM as optimal for long-tail imbalanced class distributions.
- Robustness & OOD Testing: Stress-tested the vision pipeline with targeted label corruption and Gaussian feature noise; validated zero-shot OOD generalization under sensor degradation conditions.
