Projects and Topics

Machine Learning

🧬 ATOM-1

A sequence-to-sequence foundation model for RNA biophysics, and the core of Atomic AI's 3D structure prediction model.

🧭 Pure exploration in bandit problems

How to run an experiment as efficiently as possible when there's no explicit penalty for exploration (or: the problem setting that gave the world Hyperband).

🛰️ Deep learning for dynamical systems analysis

A project with the European Space Agency using deep learning to analyze data from (potentially chaotic) dynamical systems.

Computational Physics & Chemistry

⚛️ Ab initio quantum chemistry

Applying the variational method to estimate ground state properties of exotic molecules (or: why I learned Fortran77 in 2016).

Computer Vision & Robotics

🦾 Visual servoing with humans in the loop

A novel control scheme for simplifying the operation of a high degree of freedom robot arm that uses computer vision to define an intuitive, task-specific control manifold.

Algorithms & Games

🧮 Ataxx game search engine

My C++ Ataxx minimax search engine that won a graduate heuristic search course tournament (by being fast, and spending its time wisely in the tournament).
