• During my internship, I worked on developing firmware for ECG classification applications, gaining hands-on experience in AI acceleration and machine learning optimization techniques such as quantization (FP16, INT8, INT16, and INT32 operations) for efficient hardware inference. Additionally, I was involved in RTL design and simulation workflows and worked extensively with Vivado, deploying designs on VIRTEX and Zynq FPGA boards for hardware validation and performance benchmarking.
