Adejare Adelugba

ML Engineer & Data Scientist

I build ML systems that work on real, messy data — not clean benchmarks. Most recently: 87.1% ROC-AUC on multimodal cancer detection, and electoral data infrastructure spanning all 36 Nigerian states.

Case Studies

The two projects that best represent what I build and how I think.

Research • Medical AI

Multimodal Breast Cancer Detection

PyTorch • MedCLIP • TabNet • Early Fusion

Designed a fusion architecture combining ultrasound image embeddings (MedCLIP, 512-dim) with clinical tabular metadata (TabNet) to overcome the limitations of single-modality screening. Early fusion outperformed late fusion and both unimodal baselines.

Nigeria Electoral Data Infrastructure

Python • Selenium • PostgreSQL • Click CLI

Built a multi-layer Selenium scraper navigating dynamically rendered state portals across all 36 Nigerian states. Standard scrapers fail at depth 3+ due to session token handling — solved with explicit wait chains, exponential backoff, and a resumable CLI.
