Research in Progress & Upcoming Publications
1️⃣ Regression-Based Machine Learning Framework for Accurate Financial Risk Prediction
Developing a regression-based hybrid ML framework that improves the accuracy of financial risk prediction for small and mid-sized U.S. enterprises. The model integrates historical FDIC, BLS, and FRED datasets with macroeconomic indicators to help identify early warning signals of financial distress.
Tools: Python (Scikit-learn, XGBoost), Power BI, SQL
2️⃣ Comparative Analysis of Transformer and LSTM Architectures for Cybersecurity Threat Detection
Conducting a comparative study of transformer-based deep learning and LSTM models for detecting complex cybersecurity threats and financial data breaches. This research emphasizes explainability (XAI) and the interpretability of AI systems in high-risk sectors.
Tools: TensorFlow, PyTorch, Explainable AI (SHAP), Python
3️⃣ AI-Driven Complaint Analytics Using CFPB Consumer Database (2020–2024)
Applying Natural Language Processing (NLP) and sentiment analysis to identify fraud-related complaint trends from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) data. The dashboard aims to help regulators and banks strengthen consumer protection frameworks and detect emerging financial risks.
Tools: Power BI, Python (NLTK, TextBlob), SQL
4️⃣ Enhancing Financial Decision-Making Through Behavioral Data Integration
This ongoing study extends the Leveraging AI and Behavioral Analytics research presented at IEEE ICECET 2025. It explores how AI models can incorporate behavioral finance variables to forecast consumer credit behavior and reduce bias in decision-making algorithms.
Tools: Python, Pandas, Behavioral Data APIs
