I received B.Sc (Special) in Computer Science degree from the University of Sri Jayewardenepura, Sri Lanka in 2014.
I have worked in different academic institutions and industry to recieve years of experience:
IEEE Member - Sri Lanka Section - 2018, 2021
Fruit Disease Identification using Machine Leraning, 2019 (Co-Supervisor) - This Research Project was carried out at the Sabaragamuwa University of Sri Lanka, under the supervision of me and my colleague. The study consisted of deploying a protoype system that is able to detect disease of a given fruit image. This has used latest machine learning algorithms and was developed using Tensorflow.
Impact of Social Media Usage on Students' Academic Performance in Sri Lanka, 2018 (Principal Supervisor) - This Research Project was carried out at the Sabaragamuwa University of Sri Lanka, under my supervision. The study consisted of deploying a structured questionaire among recent school leavers after their G.C.E. Advanced Level Examination to collect information on the social media usage during the examination period. The responds were analysed using statistical software and made conclusions including recommendations for proper utilization of social media among those students.
