I build systems that connect software, data, and applied AI: production-oriented APIs, cloud data pipelines, multi-tenant web apps, and computer-vision research that ships as reproducible code.
Computer Science graduate from the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay with five industry internships (Schneider, Brown County, Faith Technologies, WiSys, UWGB) and two arXiv preprints. I care about why a system exists as much as how it works.

| SLAPBench: Benchmarking Multimodal LLMs for Four-Finger SLAP Fingerprint Verification Pyakurel, Murshed · arXiv 2026 · first author |
First benchmark for MLLM-based SLAP fingerprint verification on NIST SD302b. 7,832 pairs, five models (InternVL3, Qwen2.5-VL, Qwen3-VL, Gemma-3, Claude Opus 4.8), three prompting strategies, and a demographic fairness probe. Shows prompt-driven verification collapse. | arXiv · PDF · Code |
| Pixel-Level Pavement Distress Assessment Using Instance Segmentation Dewick, Pyakurel, Yang, Choudhury, Murshed · arXiv 2026 |
Mask R-CNN on the field-collected UWGB-StreetCrack dataset across four distress classes. Best backbone (ResNet-101 FPN) reaches 84.23% precision, 90.04% recall, 87.04% F1. | arXiv · PDF |
Interests: applied computer vision · multimodal LLM evaluation · algorithmic fairness · biometric verification · foundation-model benchmarking · prompt sensitivity · domain shift · reproducible ML

- Author. Published यथार्थ (Reality) in 2020, a Nepali book on love, society, and inequality. It taught me that empathy and nuance matter as much as functionality.
- Community. Founded and led the Nepalese Students' Association at UW–Green Bay. Three years as a Resident Assistant.
- Teaching. Teaching Assistant for Python labs, mentoring 30+ students and helping raise the lab pass rate from 20% to 45%.
Trained as a software developer, poet at heart. If you also think exploration is where impact begins, say hi.
