Labeling Experience

Machine Learning Engineer (AI Training and Data Labeling)

ImageObject Detection
As a Machine Learning Engineer at Kaeberlein Lab, I developed scripts to mine and generate annotated image datasets for training AI models. I created a screening tool utilizing Yolov3 and Google Colab to detect lifespan extension in yeast cells based on transfer learning and pre-generated compatible weight files. Additional software tools for tracing tracks in agar images were built in Matlab to assist in image analysis and labeling tasks. • Wrote custom Matlab and Python scripts for mining, curating, and labeling archival image data. • Labeled experimental images for object detection analysis using Yolov3. • Generated and preprocessed datasets to train image detection models. • Built tools for faint track tracing in C. elegans experiment images.

Research Assistant/Undergraduate Researcher (Experimental Data Annotation)

ImageClassification
As an Undergraduate Researcher at Kaeberlein Lab, I improved manual data processing workflows and annotated experimental data from biological experiments. I introduced ergonomic data sorting and annotation tools to streamline experiment labeling. My annotated data contributed to validating experiments on yeast aging and DNA damage traces. • Annotated more than 40 experimental datasets by manually labeling images and results. • Developed and used internal data sorting and annotation tools. • Supported genetic and age-related experiment analysis with accurate dataset labeling. • Helped create dual reporter lines tracking mitochondrial and genomic DNA damage.
