Some things I care about (or used to do) during my free time...

Open Science Effort to Accelerate Multilingual AI

Project Aya - Sinhala/සිංහල

Working alongside likeminded Sinhala speaking individuals who'd love to see our language thrive in the current NLP advancement landscape.
(2023 - Present)

Audiobook library

Manusath Handa

We built on online platform to gather and disseminate audiobooks (Sinhala/Tamil) to visually impaired students.
(Contributed while I was an Undergrad).

Some Visualization Tools I've built

Algorithm
Visualizer

D* Lite Algorithm

As part of my internship, I wanted to implement the D* Lite algorithm, with dynamic obstacle creation aspect. (WebAssembly)

Convolutional NN Visualizer

Project Intelliscope

As part of a medical research, built a model visualization tool to get more intuition on what sort of learning has the model performed. (TensorSpace.js)

Multi-Core Processor

FPGA Group Project

To test our ISA and the functionality of any assembly code, I developed a tool to simulate the activity of each core. (p5.js)
