I’m Basel Al-Raoush, a Software Engineering student @ BME. My focus: building smart ML solutions and modern apps that solve real problems.
Projects across full-stack, mobile, ML, and data — built with a focus on impact and reliability.
AI-powered paper trading platform with $100K virtual balance and live market data via Finnhub WebSocket. FinBERT analyzes financial news sentiment (bullish/bearish). Includes pessimistic locking, idempotency keys, circuit breakers, and JWT auth with refresh tokens.
Full-stack app with tenant portals, lease tracking, and payments. Used Redux for real-time data updates across admin dashboards.
Cross-platform scheduling system designed for barbershops. Supports client, barber, and admin roles with real-time sync and push notifications. Currently in beta with 15+ users, reducing booking confirmation time by ~40%.
Custom watch-modding brand built from the ground up. Designed the branding, product visuals, and Shopify storefront to create a consistent identity and scalable online presence. Currently an active e-commerce store with a growing customer base.
Biometric authentication project distinguishing genuine from forged signatures using dynamic features such as pen position, pressure, and angles. Evaluated multiple classifiers with visual analysis of trajectories and pressure patterns.
Real-time handwritten digit recognition tool built with MobileNetV2. Uses transfer learning and augmentation for ~95% accuracy with response times under 200ms, deployed through a Flask API and JavaScript frontend.
NLP study comparing classical ML models and BERT for news classification. Built a clean preprocessing and evaluation pipeline with clear trade-off analysis; BERT achieved the top results.
Integrated crime index with population, GDP, education, and unemployment to explore global patterns and correlations. Produced interactive maps, scatter plots, and heatmaps to surface regional insights.
