About.

Hello, my name is Darpan Mehra and I am a final year student, pursuing Bachelor of Engineering in Information Technology from the University of Mumbai.

For some time now, I’ve been working closely on my final year project. The project aims to forecast an event of heart attack using fourteen different parameters. I am currently experimenting with the data using convolution neural networks and random forest algorithm, achieving a prediction accuracy of above 90%

When coding, my goal is to implement and hand off compliant and pixel-perfect UI for software with backend functionality.

My short term plan is to take up a Masters’ in CS course to aggrandize my knowledge, learn more things, research using various technologies and ultimately achieve my career goal.
