Personal Projects and Education

The main areas I'm trying to improve are math, statistics, machine learning, data engineering, and programming.

Currently, I'm traveling the world and working on image recognition projects.

In-Progress

Projects:

• MyTrailCamera.com

  • Users will upload thousands of trail camera photos/videos and receive automated species recognition and data analysis

  • Goal: this site to serve as a data collection and labeling mechanism for animal pictures that I then can use for novel model development

  • Infra: JavaScript, Python, Google Cloud, Firebase, Typesense, Helm

Writing:

• Mixed Reality Market Structure - this is 95% done I really need to spend a couple of weeks to finalize this

Travel:

• I'm currently traveling the world and trying to learn Spanish

Docket

Projects:

• Wildlife Image Recognition

  • Want to be able to identify animals in images. This is a part of a much larger project but step 1.5.

• ML Test Data Suite

  • A repository of ML datasets to test on along with me creating synthetic datasets for testing

• ML Model Testing Suite

  • Using the ML Test Data Suite a way to test different ML models and determine their strengths and weaknesses on various datas

• Ethereum wallet relations

  • Determine interconnectedness of Ethereum wallet addresses (similarity coefficients), will hopefully de-anonymize some additional wallets to add to my database

    • Multiple papers on this, but it will be a good way to apply machine learning to blockchain data and learn how to create the cool node graphics 

Education:

• Math:

  • Linear Algebra

  • Calculus 3

• Programming

  • Algorithms

Completed

Writings:

• Circle's Implications of the Fed's Repo Facility and Raised Interest Rates

• Principles -> a bit of a cliche topic but was a good introspection exercise

• Lucid Dreaming Again -> how to habitually lucid dream

Projects:

• Regression Model for GDP Prediction using Country Data 

• Ethereum Analytic Database
