- Auditing bank statements in natural language [C1] — parse
statement PDFs with a multi-tier parser (deterministic PyMuPDF for tabular pages,
LlamaParse for the rest), repair parsing errors heuristically, standardise the result into
PostgreSQL, and audit it in natural language with a SQL agent. We compared context-injection
strategies for the agent — zero context, RAG context, and execution feedback with an
agentic validation loop — and how far newer model generations reduce the need for a complex
architecture.
- Building-code compliance checking (in progress) — a code-generation
agent that produces reusable and one-time checkers for building-code clauses against
building models. Running experiments toward a conference submission in the LLM4Code
category.

- CRISPR-Cas9 off-target prediction [J1] — designed CRISMER to
predict off-target sites from a DNA–guide-RNA sequence pair: a multi-branch CNN that
extracts k-mer features from the encoded pair, coupled with transformer blocks
that capture long-range dependencies across it. Applied DeepSHAP and Integrated Gradients
to attribute predictions back to mismatch positions, and used the resulting model to drive
guide-RNA optimization.
- Achieved a 2–8% improvement in PR-AUC and F1 over recent
state-of-the-art baselines on genome-wide off-target datasets, after surveying CNN,
RNN/LSTM/GRU, transformer, and BERT-based architectures. Supported by the RISE BUET
Students' Research Grant.
