Speaker
Bhairav Phukan is a Master’s student in Computer Engineering at Columbia University. With a strong foundation in AI and embedded systems, Bhairav focuses on building scalable, socially impactful technologies at the intersection of deep learning, human-computer interaction, and assistive tech.
He is a winner of multiple international hackathons, including the prestigious 2022 ASME-CIE Hackathon, where he led his team to 1st place against MIT Boston, becoming the sole undergrad student to defeat PHD students in the conference organised by American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
Bhairav has also contributed to impactful academic research. His first publication, in collaboration with IIT Madras and the Director General of Police, Tamil Nadu, examined the impact of COVID-19 on maternal healthcare using a novel deep learning architecture combining Feedforward Neural Networks and Auto-Regressive models. This work was published in PLOS ONE and used Neural Prophet for causal time-series analysis.
In his second research project, Bhairav developed a YOLOv8-based pothole detection and depth estimation system that has been integrated into a patent-pending smart assistive device for the visually impaired. The device also includes additional features such as LLM-enabled SPO2 monitoring for broader accessibility and healthcare use.
