About

Welcome to my LinkedIn profile! I'm Garima. A Data Scientist and Machine Learning researcher, passionate about blending cutting-edge AI with real-world applications. With over eight years of hands-on experience and a strong track record of publishing in prestigious ML conferences, I specialize in Deep Learning and Computer Vision, driving impactful solutions from model development through deployment. Currently, I’m working at the AWS Generative AI Innovation Center, where I apply state-of-the-art AI to create transformative solutions for businesses and industries worldwide. My expertise lies in translating complex data challenges into practical, scalable models that power decision-making and innovation. Previously, I served as a RA at IIIT Hyderabad’s Machine Learning Lab, collaborating with the University of Leicester on medical imaging automation projects. This work has led to six publications and opportunities to present at top-tier conferences and forums. *Research Highlights* I’ve had the honor of being invited to speak about my work at: - The Parliamentary & Scientific Committee's "STEM for BRITAIN" event. - The "Women in Vision UK, 2020" at "100% Optical," the UK’s largest optical event, Future Practice Hub. *Awards & Recognitions* - Six National & International Awards: Recognized for research excellence in Machine Learning. - Medical Research Council (MRC), UK - Confidence in Concept Award: Received funding for innovative research in Healthcare. - Best Abstract Presentation: Honored at BCOVS & IOVS conferences. - Intel AI Ambassador: Actively promoted AI advancements and developments at Intel Corporation. I’m also a contributing writer for Towards Data Science and Analytics Vidhya on Medium, where my articles garner 100K+ views each, showcasing insights on AI, ML, and data science trends. *Technical Skills* Proficient in API frameworks (Flask/FastAPI), cloud platforms (AWS/GCP), and version control (Git), I leverage cloud infrastructure to manage the scale and complexity of today’s data. My toolkit includes Python, PyTorch, OpenCV, and specialized libraries for Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision, and Biomedical Imaging. *Areas of Interest* Machine Learning | Deep Learning | Generative AI | Computer Vision | Statistical Analysis | Biomedical Imaging | AI in Healthcare | Whether you're interested in collaborating, discussing ML innovations, or exploring potential AI solutions, I’d love to connect!
