Projects

Here's a little about the projects that I worked on in the past.

Migraine Prediction Engine

We incorporated user diary data from American participants in conjunction with wearable sensor data to predict migraine episodes using an LSTM. We're presently in the development phase of an app, aiming to scale this project to the populace in Pakistan.

Urdu Chatbot for Self-attachment Theory

We are creating an Urdu chatbot, in continuation to the project led by the Algorithmic Human Development, Imperial College London, on the subject of attachment thory. Chatbots were previously developed for Mandarin, Russian, and Farsi audiences, setting a foundation we aim to build upon. The chatbot leverages the Self-Attachment Technique (SAT), which is proving to be a valuable tool for self-regulation and enhancing emotional stability.
