Full-stack On-Premises MLOps system for Computer Vision

Fully operating on-premises MLOps system tailored for Computer Vision tasks from Data versioning to Model monitoring and drift detection with the concept: 1 config, 1 command from Jupyter Notebook to serve Millions of users". This system equips you with everything you need, from a development workspace in Jupyter Lab/Notebook to production-level services and it only takes "1 config and 1 command" to run the whole system from building the model to deployment! I've integrated numerous best practices to ensure scalability and reliability while maintaining flexibility. While my primary use case revolves around image classification, this project structure can easily adapt to a wide range of ML/DL developments, even transitioning from on-premises to cloud!

Real-time Webcam Background Replacement Web Application

A web application with the Zoom-like feature: Real-time webcam background replacement with a Web UI + Cartoonification + Image filters built with FastAPI using WebSocket (Also, utilizes JavaScript for frontend functionalities).

Key Features

Dymanic background: Replace the webcam background with a selected prepopulated image or one uploaded by the user.
Background model options: Two available models for background segmentation: Mediapipe (default) and ‘apple/deeplabv3-mobilevit-xx-small’ from Hugging Face.
Cartoonification: Cartoonify webcam stream with two options: OpenCV (Sequence of image processings) and CartoonGAN (Deep learning model).

Docker-based: The entire app is dockerized.

A web application login page including face verification (1-to-1 to verify whether the person who is logging in is really that person), for security purposes, with liveness detection mechanism (to check whether the person detected on the camera is a REAL person or FAKE (eg. image, video, etc. of that person)) for Anti-Spoofting (Others pretending to be the person). After the login page, a webpage placeholder is also provided for future use.

Competitions

There are a lot of competitions I have attended, but here are the ones I’ve learned the most from and I’m allowed to open-source the work.

Thailand Machine Learning for Chemistry Competition (TMLCC)

TMLCC is a new type of Data Science competition in which competitors need to use Machine Learning techniques in order to build and develop mathematic models with the ability to learn and understand the relationship between structural properties of Metal-Organic frameworks (MOFs) and their Working Capacity. The developed models need to be able to predict this property of other MOFs accurately and precisely. Briefly given a number of features of chemistry properties and molecule files, the goal is to predict the CO2 Working Capacity (how much the MOFs can absorb CO2) in mL/g. Hence this is the regression task.

We placed in 6th place from over 200+ teams nationwide. Here are the main techniques we applied that made us stand out:

Create many new features from feature engineering with domain expertise in Chemistry subject.
Fill missing values in some features with Multivariate Imputation by Chained Equation (MICE) technique and Chemistry formula.
Select features using backward elimination along with SHAP values.
Do hyperparameters tuning with Optuna.
Use DeepInsight to transform tabular data into images and train a downstream CNN model.
Use the trained CNN as a feature extractor to extract more features and append them to train along with other original features with LightGBM. This gave us the best standalone model!
Ensemble models with a weighted average strategy by giving higher weight to the results from more accurate models.
