Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMeruja Selvamanikkam is an AI engineer and research-focused machine learning practitioner with 8 years of experience applying deep learning and software engineering to medical imaging and AR products. Currently at the University of Alberta, she develops nnU-Net–based 3D CBCT segmentation pipelines and end-to-end DICOM/NIfTI data workflows to support clinical-grade adenoid hypertrophy detection and grading. Her background spans backend API engineering at WSO2—where she contributed integration tests and REST features for the widely used WSO2 API Manager—and immersive AR visualization for HoloLens 2 using Unity3D for stereoscopic 3DE datasets. Comfortable across Python, Java, C#, and modern ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow), she blends research rigor with production-oriented engineering, including Docker, Git, and performance/security fixes in customer-facing systems. Notably, she bridges domains by optimizing real-time rendering and network latency for interactive medical AR while also crafting robust ML evaluation strategies for diverse clinical images.
