Research Assistant @ Quantumweave Intelligence

Hi, I'm Aswin P T

AI/ML Engineer & Drone Vision Researcher

Graduate student in Machine Intelligence at Digital University Kerala (DUK). I develop real-time computer vision pipelines for aerial drone surveillance (YOLOv8, CSRNet on Jetson Orin Nano at 42 FPS) and privacy-preserving Federated Graph Neural Networks with Differential Privacy (ε = 0.5).

01. Background & Philosophy

Bridging Research Rigor with Production Engineering

I am a Machine Intelligence graduate student at the Kerala University of Digital Sciences, Innovation and Technology (DUK) and a Research Assistant at Quantumweave Intelligence. My work focuses on building robust computer vision systems that run in resource-constrained environments and scalable distributed AI frameworks.

At Quantumweave, I engineer end-to-end UAV surveillance pipelines—combining real-time object tracking (YOLOv8 + ByteTrack) with crowd density estimation (CSRNet), optimized for low-latency onboard inference on NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano hardware.

In parallel, my research delves into Federated Graph Learning, where I design privacy-preserving algorithms enabling multi-institutional fraud detection under strict Differential Privacy budgets without exposing raw records.
