May 2025 - June 2025
- Created for the CS 488 graphics course at the University of Waterloo
- Implemented the Möller–Trumbore algorithm for fast ray-triangle intersection
- Programmed Lambertian diffuse, specular refraction, and specular reflection behaviour, and support for spherical environment mapping
Software Raycaster
| JavaScript
[web]
{Github}
Sep 2024 - Oct 2024
- Implemented a software based raycasting algorithm with vanilla JavaScript where parameters and the scene can be manipulated
Renovating the Labyrinth
| JavaScript
[web]
{itch.io}
{Github}
Oct 2024
- Solo submission made in 72 hours with vanilla JavaScript on an HTML canvas for the UW Game Dev Club's fall 2024 game jam; voted winner of the technical achievement award
- Built a real time optimized ray caster with ordered Bayer matrix dithering
- Programmed 2D rigid body collision behaviour and a randomized Prim's algorithm for map generation
Bloom
| Godot
{itch.io}
{Github}
May 2024 - Jun 2024
- Team submission made in 72 hours with Godot for the UW Game Dev Club's spring 2024 game jam
- Implemented colour mixing, screen wrapping, movement, and flower spawning mechanics
Interplanetary File Explorer
| Go, Python, JavaScript
{web}
{Github}
{Devpost}
Jan 2023
- Visual file explorer of an IPFS written in Golang, Python, and JavaScript for the 2023 UofTHacks X hackathon; winner of the Estuary sponsor prize
- Created vector embeddings for files in the Estuary IPFS using Co:here’s NLP embeddings on file headers
- Performed principal component analysis of the vector embeddings to reduce dimensionality and be displayed interactively in 3D space with Three.js
Prognosing IPF
| Python
[CWSF paper]
Dec 2020 - Jun 2021
- Several machine learning models written to predict the deterioration of the condition of the lungs over time for patients of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and give a level of confidence in the prediction
- Implemented an auto-encoder, linear regression, dense neural network, and bayesian model in order to accurately predict future lung capacity and give a confidence value using initial lung capacity data, age, sex, smoking status, and more
- Obtained a Laplace Log Likelihood score of −6.9 (much better than the baseline −8.1) with σ ≈ 200mL
