About
I am a final-year student at FAST NUCES with a strong interest in Deep Learning, NLP, and Computer Vision. My journey includes working on AI research, building intelligent systems, and experimenting with cutting-edge models. I enjoy solving real-world problems through technology and continuously expanding my skill set.
Skills
Things I’ve made trying to put my dent in the universe.
I’ve worked on tons of little projects over the years but these are the ones that I’m most proud of. Many of them are open-source, so if you see something that piques your interest, check out the code and contribute if you have ideas for how it can be improved.
Ad-Pilot
Created a marketing automation platform tailored for small businesses to manage ad campaigns across Facebook and Instagram.Ad-Pilot streamlines content creation, automated scheduling, real-time performance insights, and competitor analysis to enhance marketing efficiency.
GRU Based Roman Urdu Ghazal Generation
Created a deep learning-based Roman Urdu poetry generator using GRU neural networks. It generates ghazals in the style of renowned Urdu poets by leveraging datasets scraped from Rekhta and features an interactive Streamlit web interface.
Sarcasm Detection Tool for Urdu Text on Social Media
Developed an Urdu sarcasm detection tool that leverages a Gaussian Naive Bayes model trained on Urdu text data. It features a custom preprocessing pipeline for text normalization, stopword filtering, and tokenization to analyze social media content.
WhatsWhisper
Created a multi-featured WhatsApp bot that transcribes voice messages into text using advanced models like OpenAI's Whisper and Alibaba's ZipEnhancer. Ideal for noisy environments or when listening isn't possible, while also offering smart task scheduling and leveraging Acoustic Noise Enhancement for improved transcription accuracy.
Text Summarization Using Large Language Models
Developed a state-of-the-art text summarization system by fine-tuning BERT, GPT-2, and Llama to generate both extractive and abstractive summaries, leveraging advanced large language models in a Jupyter Notebook environment.

EnergyFormer: Energy Attention with Fourier Embedding for Hyperspectral Image Classification
Saad Sohail, Muhammad Usama, Usman Ghous, Manuel Mazzara, Salvatore Distefano, Muhammad Ahmad
IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters (IEEE GRSL) (2025)
This novel approach introduces Energy Attention, a mechanism designed to enhance feature learning by integrating energy spectral density into the attention process. Additionally, it leverages Fourier Embedding to capture spatial-spectral correlations, effectively improving classification performance.Why does this matter? Traditional attention mechanisms often struggle with the high-dimensional complexity of hyperspectral data. EnergyFormer overcomes this challenge by incorporating spectral energy information, making it more robust, efficient, and accurate.
