About

Master’s thesis focused on building and deploying a gait-based biometric authentication system using mobile accelerometer time-series data as an alternative to passwords/2FA. Emphasized real-world robustness by addressing sensor noise and variability (phone placement, walking speed, footwear) and improving safety using biometric metrics like FAR/FRR and EER, while collaborating closely with a non-ML thesis advisor.

Key Strengths

  • Built and deployed an AI-powered gait authentication system (master’s thesis) using accelerometer time-series data
  • Handled noisy/variable real-world sensor data via preprocessing (filtering, stride segmentation) and salience-based logic
  • Applied biometric-specific evaluation metrics (FAR/FRR, EER) to reduce false acceptance and improve decision safety
  • Structured AI workflow design with staged pipeline approach and edge-case testing
  • Strong research-driven approach (reviewed 12–15 papers per step) to select methods and validate decisions
  • Able to communicate ML/biometrics concepts to non-technical stakeholders (explaining why EER matters vs accuracy)
