Neelabh Pant is a Director of Global AI for Retail at Cloudera with a decade of experience applying ML and generative AI to real-world retail problems like real-time video analytics, personalized customer journeys, and in-store safety. He previously spent seven years at Walmart Global Tech advancing forecasting, legal document automation with LLMs, and multivariate time series solutions, rising to Senior Manager of Data Science. Holding an MS and Ph.D. in Computer Science (ML & AI) from UT Arlington, he blends academic rigor with hands-on model development and production deployment. He also contributes practical deep learning projects on GitHub—experimenting with Keras networks and ARIMA/SARIMA time series forecasting—showing a preference for both classical and deep approaches. Based in Texas, he focuses on translating cutting-edge research into measurable business impact across global retail operations.

Contributions summary:Neelabh's contributions focused on building and improving machine learning models using the Keras library within the context of the provided deep learning repository. They developed a one-layer neural network using Keras to solve a classification problem, specifically predicting the survival of passengers on the Titanic dataset. The user also refined this initial model, added a second layer, experimented with different model parameters, and compared the performance of multiple models, including those using Adam and SGD optimizers. Furthermore, the user also implemented time series forecasting models using ARIMA and SARIMA approaches.
