Rameen Mahmood

I'm a PhD student in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at New York University (Tandon). I am part of mLab, where I'm advised by Professor Danny Huang. Prior to this, I earned my BSc in Electrical Engineering (Honors) at New York University Abu Dhabi.

My research lies at the intersection of machine learning and computer networks, with a focus on clinical applications. My work aims to leverage network traffic analysis as a non-invasive tool for inferring health markers, potentially contributing to the understanding of mental health, neurodegenerative diseases, and other clinical indicators.

I also work extensively with large language models, including tasks such as fine-tuning, prompt engineering, and jailbreaking. Currently, I am fine-tuning Llama 3.1 8B for multi-class device classification using IoT Inspector's device database.
