Howdy! I am Shrey Shah, a Computer Engineering student at Texas A&M University, Class of 2021. Machine Learning and Cloud Computing excite me. I am currently working on a self-driving car's image recognition system under Dr. Song. I am also a Magician. 馃帺

ABOUT

I was born and brought up in a tiny little town in India called Vapi. All my family members are doctors but, I was always interested in engineering. I have been making robots since 7th grade and my first functional robot was a nuclear leak sealing robot made out of LEGO Mindstorms. Ever since then, I have been interested in Computer Science and Electronics. To pursue this to fruition, I moved to Mumbai for 11th and 12th grade and then decided to move to the US. I moved to Plano, TX in November 2017 and joined Texas A&M University in January 2018.

Projects

Bush School Capstone Sorting

Bush School of Government and Public Service

Working on a Capstone Sorting algorithm for the Bush School that makes their process of sorting students into Capstone projects much easier.
I have implemented 3 different algorithms that render different kinds of student groups per project and then all the school has to do is choose the one that fits their needs the best.
Working on this project with Thomas McDonald.
Here is the GitHub Repository.

NET360 - A data dispersion and visualization tool - Hackathon Winner

Aggies Invent

Led a team of 6 people in AggiesInvent to create this AR-based data management tool to support various Network Operation Centers (NOCs).
This tool directs information to the right individual at a much faster pace using an algorithm that is based on NLP confidence ratios with databases of keywords and personnel information in a black box system in the NOC.
Here is the news article about us after winning the event.

Here is a 90-second pitch video about the product made by me:



Here is a prototype video of our tool:

Aggie Coding Club - Workshops Officer

Aggie Coding Club

Hosting workshops on various essential topics like Git, Docker, Developing an API, Using an API, GitHub Pages, Cloud Computing, and Machine Learning.
Helping students to have coding experience outside of schoolwork via projects.

Interests

When I am not studying, I love to indulge in: Here is an image I took while on a trip to Historic Texas.


On First Fridays (an event in Bryan downtown on the first Friday of every month), I perform magic to entertain the Bryan-College Station community. This helps me build my public speaking skills while also allowing me to help bring some joy into the BCS community.
Here is a video of me performing magic on First Friday.
