About Me
Learn more about my background and experience.
Hi, I’m Kaung Myat Kyaw, a Machine Learning Engineer with a strong foundation in building scalable, data-driven systems. I’m pursuing an M.S. in Computer Science at the University of Colorado Boulder (GPA: 4.0), where I focus on machine learning, deep learning, and big data systems. I’ve applied my skills across impactful projects—from deploying a lung cancer detection model with 99% accuracy to building the Flow State App, a productivity tool for students in Myanmar IDP camps. I also volunteer as a software engineer, improving platforms and tools that serve real-world communities. My toolkit includes Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face, AWS, and MLOps practices for production-ready ML solutions. I’m passionate about using AI to solve meaningful problems and enjoy working on teams that value innovation, performance, and social impact.

A showcase of my recent work and personal projects that demonstrate my skills and creativity.
Flow State App
Flow State App
Designed and deployed a full-stack productivity app combining Pomodoro timer, meditation, and task-linked focus cycles, tailored for displaced students in Myanmar IDP Refugee camps. Used static generation and cloud deployment with CI/CD via GitHub and Vercel. Supported 100+ users; aimed to enhance focus, engagement, and mental health using behavioral reinforcement loops.
Customer Segmentation with Unsupervised Learning
Customer Segmentation with Unsupervised Learning
Segmented customers in an online retail dataset using K-Means and Hierarchical Clustering; applied EDA, outlier detection, transformation, and standardization; tuned hyperparameters using Elbow and Silhouette methods to identify meaningful clusters for business insights. Engineered features and removed outliers to boost cluster interpretability by 50%
Lung Cancer Detection (CT Image-Based)
Lung Cancer Detection (CT Image-Based)
Trained multiple supervised models on lung CT scan data to assist physicians in early cancer detection. Achieved 99% accuracy with SVM; documented full model evaluation in published report. Compared models using ROC and precision-recall; aimed to reduce clinical turnaround time
BBC News Classifier with Supervised and Unsupervised Models
BBC News Classifier with Supervised and Unsupervised Models
Built a news classification system trained on the BBC dataset using both supervised (SVC: 98.5% accuracy) and unsupervised (NMF: 95.5% accuracy) methods. Preprocessed and vectorized news articles to categorize into business, politics, tech, and sports.
Personal Portfolio Website
Personal Portfolio Website
Built and deployed a fully static, SEO-optimized developer portfolio site with custom project showcase and continuous deployment.
