Hello there, I’m Obafemi
I’m a 4th year PhD candidate at Karen Panetta’s Vision Sensing and Simulation Lab at Tufts University, where I work on computer vision, multimodal machine learning and generative AI to address complex, real-world problems.
Research
My research is centered on developing cutting-edge machine learning, and deep learning techniques for vision and multimodal understanding (vision-language), toward deploying reliable, robust, and trustworthy models that achieve state-of-art performance.

Personal & Course-based Machine Learning Adjacent Projects
- My DDPM re-implementation (Github Repository here).
I re-implemented the paper denoising diffusion probabilistic model (DDPM) from scratch. The repository explores the strengths and weaknesses of DDPMs along with some ablation studies. - VisionTransformer (ViT) Re-implementation from Scratch (Github Repository here).
I re-implemented the paper An Image is Worth 16x16 Words: Transformers for Image Recognition at Scalefrom scratch. The repository explores the Vision Transformer Architecture in detail, mapping the theory into code and thus cementing my understanding of the components that make up this architecture. Probabilistic Model for Amur Tiger Re-identification my paper | course website
I developed an animal re-identification deep-learning model that classifies 107 amur tiger entities using a Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) estimation model to counter the overfitting challenge of traditional maximum likelihood estimation-based models with severely limited and imbalanced training data.
Instructor comment: “very nice overall! Would be excited to talk more if you want to follow up on this project. I think could be a great potential future CP for this class, among other things (maybe also a cool research paper)” ~ Michael C. HughesStatistical Pattern Recognition, Spring 2023
