Muhammad Inuwa Muhammad.
I turn raw signal into systems that ship.

I'm an AI/ML Engineer, published researcher, and technical educator building end-to-end systems across medical imaging, robotics, IoT, NLP, and agentic AI. I presented my MRI reconstruction research in France at MIRASOL 2026.

Research depth, engineering discipline.

I'm an AI/ML Engineer, published researcher, and technical educator studying Mechatronics Engineering at the Federal University of Technology Minna. I build intelligent systems that leave the notebook and reach real users, with hands-on experience in medical imaging AI, agentic systems, IoT, 3D printing, and autonomous robotics.

My physics-informed low-field MRI reconstruction research was presented at an international conference in France in 2026. I facilitate technical workshops for children and polytechnic educators, and serve as Technical Lead at Notion@FUTMinna. Earlier, I led a 13-person team building a road-hazard detection system, shipped a multilingual AI loan advisor for rural farmers, and scaled an agentic productivity bot to 65+ active users.

Physics-Informed Deep Learning for Accelerated Open-Source Low-Field MRI Reconstruction

Benchmarked five reconstruction paradigms (U-Net, CascadeNet, MoDL, DUN-DD, and E2E-VarNet) on real OSI² ONE 47 mT low-field MRI data using rigorous nine-fold Leave-One-Subject-Out cross-validation. The work is motivated by improving MRI accessibility in low-resource and rural settings where conventional 1.5–3T scanners are too expensive.

CascadeNet matched performance with ~15× fewer parameters. A zero-shot sweep evaluated acceleration factors from R=2 up to R=12 without retraining. Stack: PyTorch, E2E-VarNet, CascadeNet, MoDL, DUN-DD, U-Net, k-space processing, SSIM/PSNR, ISMRMRD HDF5, and Compute Canada GPUs.

Physics-Informed Deep Learning for Accelerated Open-Source Low-Field MRI Reconstruction

Tolough Nelson Aondongu, Muhammad Inuwa Muhammad, et al.

Affiliations: FUTMinna · University of Ilorin · McGill University · University of British Columbia · MAI Lab Lagos

Benchmarked five physics-informed reconstruction paradigms on the OSI² ONE 47 mT low-field MRI dataset. E2E-VarNet achieved SSIM of 0.8212 with a +7.50 dB PSNR gain over U-Net. CascadeNet provides near-equivalent quality with ~15× fewer parameters.

Milestones worth sharing.
