I'm Saud — an AI/ML engineer who likes hard, load-bearing problems: retrieval that can't hallucinate, risk engines that can't miss, vision that runs where there's no internet. Most of what's below started as a hackathon sprint and got hardened into a system — eval harness, ablations, latency budget and all.
- 🧠 Applied AI — hybrid RAG (dense + sparse + cross-encoder rerankers), deterministic risk engines, agentic tool-calling
- 👁️ Vision at the edge — TFLite / MobileFaceNet fully on-device, YOLOv8 in the loop
- 🔩 The unglamorous parts — eval harnesses, ablation studies, property-based tests, offline reproducibility
- 🛡️ Upstream OSS — memory-safety & validation patches merged into

Compound-risk intelligence for industrial safety. A deterministic engine fuses gas sensors, hot-work permits & CCTV into one risk score — LangGraph agents explain the decision, they never make it. Replayed against real disasters (Texas City '05, Jaipur '09), it fires minutes before any single sensor.

Plain English in → Bureau of Indian Standards codes out. Four-stage hybrid retrieval: FAISS (bge-m3) + BM25 → reciprocal-rank fusion → cross-encoder rerank, with a whitelist guard so it can't hallucinate a standard. Auto-clamps to available VRAM, all the way down to CPU.

Security-hardening patches in C/C++ libraries that ship inside browsers, games and image pipelines:
| PR | What it hardens | |
|---|---|---|
 |
strukturag/libheif #1840 | Enforces security limits on icef unit allocation — no unbounded memory from crafted HEIF files |
|
assimp/assimp #6705 | Validates B3D chunk sizes against buffer & parent chunk — stops oversized allocations from malformed models |
 |
AOMediaCodec/libavif #3272 | Adopts the __counted_by bounds-safety model on core data buffers |
