Hi, I'm Milan Mathew

I build machine learning for the real world: identifying Indian languages from speech, reading coral reef health from images, and predicting crop yields with honest uncertainty.

CoralSense AI

Ongoing · Oceanic AI Lab · Team of two

Problem: Reef-health surveys are expensive and sparse, so bleaching often goes unrecorded.

Approach: A low-cost drifting buoy with underwater imaging, temperature/pH/salinity sensing and GPS. I'm building the AI pipeline: underwater image enhancement followed by U-Net segmentation of coral as Healthy, Bleached or Dead, trained on Coralscapes (2,075 annotated images).

Result: Geo-referenced reef-health records; presented orally at OCEANAI-2026. Software stage nearing completion, hardware integration next.

Spoken Language Identification

NIT Goa Research Internship · Summer 2026

Problem: Identify which of 8 Indian languages is spoken in an audio recording.

Approach: MFCC features from the IIT Mandi ReadSpeech dataset; 8 classifiers benchmarked with 5-fold cross-validation and confusion-matrix analysis.

Result: Tuned SVM reached 91.99% test accuracy, deployed in a Flask web app.

CVV Hostel E-Outpass System

Completed 2026

Problem: Hostel outpasses ran on paper, email and WhatsApp, with no reliable approval trail.

Approach: Parent OTP login, role-based approval routing to teachers and wardens by academic-calendar rules, and QR e-outpasses scanned at the main gate for exit and return.

Result: Submitted to the college administration for adoption as the official outpass system.

Crop Yield Prediction

Problem: Predict crop yields, and say how confident each prediction is.

Approach: End-to-end ML pipeline on 1M+ rows with Linear Regression and XGBRFRegressor, extended with conformal prediction intervals.

Result: R² ≈ 0.91, deployed as a Flask web app; the uncertainty work became a BDA 2026 paper.
