👋 I'm @sidgupta234. I ❤️ Computer Science and Cognitive Science! 👨💻
Interested in NLP, Linguistics, Behavioral Economics, Deep Learning, Analytics, and Academia. When I am not consumed with college assignments, I post YouTube videos, make Discord bots, write Twitter threads, work on automation/web app projects Github or try threading some words on Medium Blog.

- Song Analytics & Playlist Generator | Web App - Created dataset of Lyrics for 21K top billboard songs (out of total 28K). App shows various song properties: lyrics, audio properties, billboard rank over years; the app also create Spotify playlists based on the song.
- XKCD Comic Fetcher | Web App | Code - Give a keyword, and get the xkcd comic in response for your PPT needs :D.
- Indian English ASR | Code - An Indian English ASR system based on Hidden Markov Models (HMM) has been designed using Kaldi(Povey et al., 2011). Used available continuous English speech transcribed data obtained from non-native Indian English speakers in order to build an ASR system. This project was made as part of the IIIT Hyderabad Advanced Summer School on Natural Language Processing (IASNLP 2022).
- Automated Essay Scoring | Web App | Code - Assess the language proficiency of 8th-12th grade English Language Learners (ELLs). Given an essay, we need to come up with a model that can rate the essay on the basis of: cohesion, syntax, vocabulary, phraseology, grammar, and conventions. I operationalized vocabulary and conventions with basic heuristics. (App may not be accessible, thanks to Heroku calling off their free deployment tier)
