Raghava Vinaykanth Mushunuri

Specialization: Data Scientist / Software Engineer
— I am a PhD candidate in the Department of Computer Science at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, with strong expertise in Python, C++, MATLAB, and Computer Vision, as well as hands-on experience in embedded C, hardware–software integration, digital signal processing for ultrasound and ECG, 3D visualisation, and medical imaging technologies. — With a passion for AI applications in healthcare, I have worked on deep learning and computer vision projects across multiple medical imaging modalities, while also developing a strong interest and industry experience in embedded systems, cross-platform development, Edge AI, and software engineering in medical domains. — My background in startup environments has enabled me to work both independently and collaboratively within cross-functional teams, making me adaptable and self-driven.

● Working on detecting pulse during CPR by analysing blood-flow velocity patterns from carotid Doppler ultrasound and estimating key clinical metrics from average velocity envelopes. ● Developed deep learning models for predicting Return of Spontaneous Circulation (ROSC) using Doppler ultrasound during CPR. Classification models to detect ROSC vs other signals (completed), segmentation model to predict the average velocity envelope (in progress), and peak detection model. ● Implemented CUDA convolution kernel for training with C++ and developed models with C++ PyTorch layers and implemented TensorRT inference pipeline for edge devices. Developed MATLAB GUI for data annotation and signal preprocessing. Working on multimodal AI systems combining ultrasound and ECG signals for ROSC detection and implemented signal processing and noise reduction algorithms. ● Published research in Resuscitation Plus and MIDL conference. Supervised 3 master’s students in AI-based medical imaging projects. Projects: ● Immune System Response in Polytrauma (12 CP): used deep learning and machine learning to predict complications in polytrauma patients and identify key biomarkers. Individual project. Published a paper in the Frontiers in Immunology Journal. ● Super-Resolution of 3D DWI MRI: led the development of a UNet-based model for super-resolving diffusion-weighted MRI volumes (DICOM), resulting in a publication at the EUSIPCO conference. ● Derived Data Prediction for DWI: developed deep learning models to generate diffusion tensors and brain tracts from MRI data, along with a Qt5-based GUI for visualization. ● Hand Movement Classification: built an LSTM model in MATLAB for classifying hand movements from sensor glove data, incorporating signal processing techniques; published in MDPI Sensors. ● Personal Projects (OpenGL/Vulkan/VR): building 3D visualization tools using Vulkan, OpenGL, C++ and Android NDKs out of personal interest along with online courses (hobby coding). ● Developed Android apps using OpenGL, Vulkan SDK for 3D visualization with native C++.
