R-SAMSAMI/README.md

Hi, I'm Reihaneh (Rei) Samsami

AI Engineer building applied AI, ML, and analytics products for construction and field operations.

Assistant Professor at the University of New Haven
Ph.D. in Civil Engineering | M.S. in Data Science (Expected Spring 2026)

I build AI systems for construction safety, inspection, document intelligence, and operational decision support. From Civil Engineering to Construction Management, an MBA, and now Data Science, my journey reflects how much I love learning, adapting, and growing across disciplines.


Focus Areas

  • Applied AI and ML product development
  • Multimodal AI for image, document, and field workflows
  • Predictive modeling and explainable risk analytics
  • Document intelligence and grounded LLM applications
  • Construction safety, inspection, and operational decision support

Featured AI / ML Projects

AI-powered inspection reporting app that turns field photos into structured defect findings, GPS-aware map context, and report-ready summaries.

Inspection Report Generator demo

What it shows: multimodal prompting, structured outputs, EXIF GPS extraction, map-aware review, and AI-assisted reporting workflows.
Tools: Python, Streamlit, OpenAI Responses API, Pydantic, Pillow, pandas, geopy

AI document Q&A copilot for construction specs, safety manuals, and method statements with grounded answers, summaries, and source excerpts.

Construction Docs Copilot demo

What it shows: grounded LLM workflows, document parsing, structured answer design, source-backed responses, and report generation.
Tools: Python, Streamlit, OpenAI Responses API, Pydantic, PyPDF, python-docx

Interactive ML dashboard for predicting schedule delays and budget overruns from project planning data.

Project Risk Predictor demo

What it shows: supervised learning, risk scoring, what-if analysis, explainability, and product-style ML presentation.
Tools: Python, Streamlit, scikit-learn, pandas, NumPy, Plotly

Interactive SQL dashboard for analyzing construction near misses, incidents, hazards, and corrective actions.

Construction Safety SQL demo

What it shows: relational data modeling, SQL analytics, KPI design, trend analysis, and operational dashboarding.
Tools: Python, SQLite, SQL, pandas, Streamlit

Multimodal safety copilot for analyzing site images and generating structured observations, follow-up questions, and report-ready outputs.

Construction Safety Copilot demo

What it shows: vision-language workflows, safety-oriented AI assistance, structured reporting, and applied product thinking for field teams.
Tools: Python, Streamlit, OpenAI API, multimodal prompting, structured outputs

A Quick Note On My Public Work

I have worked on many more AI and engineering projects than what is visible here. Some of that work cannot be shared publicly because of funding restrictions, ownership, collaboration agreements, or client constraints. I still keep GitHub updated with representative public projects that reflect the kinds of systems I build and the problems I enjoy solving.

Fun Fact

I make one of the best baklavas in the world, and yes, precision matters everywhere.
