I'm Karthikeyan Selvamani — an aspiring AI & ML engineer who turns research into working hardware. I build autonomous rovers that see structural cracks, RAG pipelines that read the law, and dashboards that forecast the future. Published researcher at ICICEA'26. Currently leading 80+ students as General Secretary of CSEA, Annamalai University.

B.E. CSE (AI & ML), Annamalai UniversityI'm a graduate of Computer Science and Engineering (AI & ML) at Annamalai University with a habit of turning coursework into hardware. My final-year project, BuildScan Rover, fuses robotics, IoT, computer vision and deep learning into an autonomous inspection robot — the work was accepted and published at ICICEA'26 in April 2026.
Outside the lab, I lead as General Secretary of CSEA at the Department of Computer Science & Engineering, coordinating 80+ office bearers across technical symposiums, AI summits and department-wide events. I've also volunteered to build a free academic utility platform used by students across 13 departments, and interned on generative AI systems at Live Stream Technologies, Coimbatore.
I care about shipping things that work end-to-end — from a YOLO model running on an NVIDIA RTX 3050, to the ESP32-CAM streaming its feed, to the PDF report that lands in someone's inbox. Currently exploring LLM fine-tuning, agentic AI and MLOps.
From pixel to prediction — the tools behind every project below.
Real-time detection & segmentation for physical-world inspection systems.
Model training, fine-tuning and evaluation for vision and language tasks.
RAG pipelines, LLM apps and generative architectures grounded in real data.
Embedded firmware and sensor fusion bridging hardware and intelligence.
Shipping models and apps to production infrastructure.
Wrangling, forecasting and visualizing data that drives decisions.
Enrolled at Annamalai University, Tamil Nadu. HDCA Diploma completed the same year at TCES I.T. Education, First Class.
Began an ongoing fellowship exploring full-stack development and Industry 4.0 technologies.
Built and deployed responsive, cross-browser websites using HTML, CSS, JavaScript and GitHub Pages, remotely.
Took charge of the Computer Science Engineering Association for AY 2025–26, leading 80+ office bearers across technical and cultural events.
Built GANs, VAEs and Transformer-based models for image synthesis, text generation and chatbot applications in Coimbatore.
Organized and coordinated multi-day AICTE-recognized student engagement summits, symposiums and cultural events as General Secretary.
"BuildScan Rover: AI-Based Autonomous Robot for Indoor Structural Health Inspection" accepted and published, ISBN 978-93-5717-038-3.
Scored 81.254 percentile in TANCET PG 2026. Set to graduate with First Class, CGPA 7.09.
Four systems, four different problems — all shipped end-to-end.
Autonomous & Bluetooth-controlled robot that inspects structural surfaces in real time — ESP32-CAM streaming into a YOLOv8n-seg crack-segmentation pipeline, with severity scoring and auto-generated PDF inspection reports.
Legal & cyber-law intelligence platform. A Retrieval-Augmented Generation pipeline ingests statutes and case material, then answers legal queries grounded in the retrieved source — running entirely on local LLMs via Ollama.
A CGPA/OGPA calculator turned academic support platform for FEAT, covering all 13 departments and 8 semesters — semester planning, classification prediction and PDF report downloads, built solo in one sleepless night.
An interactive dashboard analyzing global pandemic data — 30-day case forecasting with Prophet, growth-rate tracking, and an animated global spread visualization.
