Al Amir Kinann's Portfolio
About
Engineer at the crossroads of AI, signal processing, and business strategy — trained at Phelma/Ense3 with an IAE-MBA dual degree. I build projects where math meets the real world: from deep learning pipelines to physically-informed models.
Particularly drawn to NLP — two of my most impactful experiences revolve around it: detecting early Alzheimer's through language analysis, and building RAG & LLM architectures during my final internship at EDF.
What drives me? Pushing data science into domains that truly matter — medical diagnostics, biological modeling, nutrition science, and sports performance. Always exploring, always learning, always looking for the next problem worth solving.

Recent Works
Here are some of my favorite projects I have done lately. Feel free to check them out.
For my internships, the code was proprietary, so all projects here are personal projects or from Kaggle. This is why they don't match with some of my experience, which involved huge but proprietary projects.
-
Deep Learning🧠 Dementia Detection.
This project aims to create a predictive model that leverages both machine learning and generative AI (GAI) techniques. The model skillfully employs linguistic features extracted from text data to predict dementia diagnoses.
-
Development📑 PDF Reorganizer.
Created PDF tools that works Locally with streamlit for some friends who needed them because ilovepdf was banned from their workplace. A Streamlit-based tool for merging and reorganizing PDF documents by inserting multiple PDFs into a main document at specific positions.
-
Machine Learning🏦 Loan payback probability.
Kaggle playground, predict the probability that a borrower will pay back their loan using CatBoost + TabNet combination.
-
Development & NLP🧾 Expenditure Tracking.
A Python tool to categorize bank transactions using rule-based matching, the French Companies API (Recherche d'entreprises), and an LLM for understanding French transaction labels.
-
Deep Learning & Bioinformatics🧬 CAFA 6 Protein Function Prediction.
Deep learning solution for the CAFA 6 protein function prediction competition using ESM-2 transformers. Predicts Gene Ontology (GO) terms for protein sequences, addressing one of the fundamental challenges in computational biology.
-
Development🐍 Python Assembler.
With a team of 4, we developed a custom Python assembler, focusing on lexical and syntactical analysis of regular expressions and Python instructions. The code was pushed to the school's own GitLab instance, so I no longer have access to the repository.
