Incoming Computer Engineering student at George Mason University's Honors College with a passion for machine learning, computer vision, and robotics.
Hey, I'm Malek Swilam, and I'm starting at George Mason University's Honors College for Computer Engineering this fall.
I did ML research at GMU; co-built OCRadar, an AI app that screens for oral cancer with 98% accuracy; and led software development for an FTC robotics team.
Outside of tech, I'm an Eagle Scout, where I built leadership, community service, and a love for the outdoors.
A macOS menu bar system monitor with iPhone and Apple Watch companions. Tracks CPU, memory, GPU, battery health, and thermals through live charts backed by a local history store, alongside alert rules, conditional keep-awake, and real fan control on Apple Silicon via a privileged helper daemon. A built-in MCP server lets coding agents check the Mac's capacity before starting heavy work, with per-session resource attribution, guardrails, and a kill switch. Everything stays on-device, with no cloud, accounts, or telemetry.
A voice-controlled robotic manipulation agent built in MuJoCo physics simulation. Natural-language commands are interpreted and executed by a Franka Panda arm in real time. An LLM breaks down commands into ordered sub-goals using chain-of-thought reasoning, detects mid-task failures, and replans autonomously to recover. Audio is handled end-to-end with speech-to-text and text-to-speech APIs. A separate LLM call verifies the live scene against the goal state before reporting success. Robot motion is solved with inverse kinematics via the mink library, and the simulation streams live through a FastAPI WebSocket portal.
Cross-platform iOS, Android, and web app for early oral cancer screening. Uses CNN-based computer vision to classify mouth images against thousands of labeled healthy, benign, and malignant samples, achieving 98% accuracy with Azure AI Vision. Featured by WTOP News, Korea Times, and FCPS News.
