Arjun Watane

To a future REU student, fellow researcher, the admissions committee of "insert program/university name here", or simply to someone who wants to know more about me, my name is Arjun Watane. I just completed my freshman year at UCF, majoring in Computer Science and minoring in Bioengineering, at the beginning of this REU. My goal is to attend medical school (I'm in the UCF BMS Program, Google it), and use my skills in CS, computer vision, and machine learning to further medical research and create useful medical applications. As a result, I selected my project to be "The Classification of ADHD Subjects Using MRI Data". My main methods include applying deep learning techniques and feature classification through an SVM classifier on structural MRI and functional MRI data with the guidance of my mentor, Soumyabrata Dey. Through this project, I hope to find a biological marker signifying the occurrence of ADHD in the subject. You can contact me at arjunwatane@knights.ucf.edu for further information. Below are my weekly presentations. Thank you!
