Hi, I’m Berkay Arda.

This team project focused on developing an intelligent surveillance system that leverages real-time weapon detection and human behavior analysis to improve public safety. My role involved training and evaluating object detection models (YOLOv8–v12) using custom-labeled CCTV datasets and implementing a VideoMAE-based architecture for suspicious behavior recognition. I integrated these models into a modular pipeline and built a mobile-friendly notification system with Firebase to deliver alerts instantly.

This interdisciplinary research project explores how artificial intelligence and bioengineering can be combined to create fire-resistant forest ecosystems. As part of a multidisciplinary team, I contributed to an early-warning system that analyzes environmental and vegetation data to detect wildfire risks using Random Forest models.

We also proposed integrating AI-based risk analysis with genetically engineered tree species that exhibit fire-resilient properties, plus a monitoring infrastructure using thermal cameras and drone surveillance.

Developed a comprehensive event scheduling and notification platform using C# (WinForms) and ASP.NET MVC, integrated with an SQL database. Implemented key features such as user registration, role-based access control (admin/staff/user), real-time event editing, and automated notification alerts.

• 👤 Role-based user registration (Admin, Staff, Participant)
• 📅 Event creation, editing, and scheduling
• 🔔 Notifications for updated/canceled events
• 📈 Filters and sorting for event tracking

EasyAssign is a lightweight Windows application developed to help educators evaluate programming assignments efficiently. It supports multiple languages and provides a structured workflow from submission to grading.

• 📁 Automatic ZIP processing from student submissions
• 💻 Compilation and execution
• 📊 Output comparison against expected results
• 🛠️ Error reporting for compile/runtime issues

During my internship at Teracity, I developed a complete 2D action-adventure game using Unity and C#. This included movement, combat, inventory management, wave-based spawning, boss battles, weapon switching (sword/bow), and UI with TextMesh Pro.

Kormos is a 3D adventure game where players control a supernatural detective with abilities like clone summoning and time manipulation. Enemies include close-range rats and ranged priests, ending with a Rat King boss encounter.
