About

Santhosh B is a highly skilled Senior Machine Learning Engineer with over 8 years of relevant experience in the field of AI Computer Vision. He has a strong background in Artificial Intelligence, Computer Vision/Image Processing, NLP, and Deep Learning domains. He has worked in the Printing industry for over 4.5 years and has extensive experience in Object Detection using traditional computer vision algorithms. Santhosh has used different image descriptors such as color channel statistics, color histograms, Hu moments, Haralick texture, local binary patterns, histogram of oriented gradient (HOG), and keypoint detectors like Fast, Harris, GFTT, DOG, Fast Hessian, Dense, Brisk, ORB, and feature extraction algorithms like SIFT, SURF, RootSIFT. Santhosh's passion for software programming, mathematics, and analyzing patterns to solve puzzles has made him curious to learn Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning. He has successfully completed a Deep Learning specialization course on Coursera, where he worked on programming assignments that are very close to real-time applications on Video/Image processing using OpenCV. Santhosh's skill set includes Python (NumPy, OpenCV, Pandas, Matplotlib, NLTK, Spacy, Scikit-learn, Tensorflow, Keras), C++, SQL, Git, Docker, and algorithms such as Logistic regression, K-Nearest Neighbor, support vector machines, Decision trees, Random forests, K-Mean Clustering, Linear Regression, ensemble models, XGBoost, ANN, CNN, RNN, LSTM, Bi-directional LSTM, Encoder-Decoder architecture. Currently, Santhosh is working as an Advanced Data Scientist (Computer Vision | Machine Learning) at Honeywell. He has previously worked at International Institute of Information Technology Bangalore as a Machine Learning coach and at Tech Mahindra as a Senior Data Scientist (Computer Vision | Machine Learning | Deep Learning). At Tech Mahindra, he analyzed different varieties of images and worked majorly on pre-processing, where it involves understanding of the images and used different image Segmentation, Image Enhancement algorithms to make sure a perfect cleaned image is processed to the ML models. He also created a Single pipeline where it involves a blob detection, table detection, circle detection for extracting specific ROI and then run the model to extract specific text from the Image. Santhosh has a Bachelor's Degree in Computer and Information Sciences and Support Services from Vishveshwaraiah Technological
