Professional Experience

Research Assistant, University of Arkansas

Virtual Try-On (ongoing)

Mar 2025 - Present

Developed an interactive visualization tool to overlay human parsing masks on real-world images for manual correction and refinement, enabling better training data quality. Leveraged segmentation classes from the GP-VTON (CVPR 2023) model to structure parsing data for general-purpose virtual try-on systems. Worked in implementing preprocessing pipelines for 80k unlabeled images and 12k labeled human parser images, achieving 56 mIoU on a 2k-image test set using a custom-trained parser model.


Automated Chicken Gait Estimation

Sep 2024 - Feb 2025

Developed a machine learning-based system for real-time chicken gait analysis to identify leg diseases using Meta Detectron2 pose estimation model, in collaboration with Cobb. Curated and utilized a dataset of 4,250 annotated images for training(2646) and validating(1604) the model, ensuring high accuracy and reliability in gait assessment. Achieved outstanding model performance with YOLO11n-Keypoint, reaching AP50: 99.01%, and mAP(50-95): 91.83%.
