Employment
Experience
- Snow Simulation (Development)https://github.com/Azmisov/snow
This implements a technical paper for material-point-method snow simulation. It is written in C++ and employs OpenGL, Eigen, FreeImage, and Houdini.
- Speed Reading Web App (Development)http://www.nyrix.com/shun/
The application helps you learn to speed-read books. It darkens text you should be reading to keep up with your target WPM.
- Flowcharts Web App (Development)http://www.nyrix.com/flowcharts/
This application is used to create flowcharts for organizing textual information. It integrates with Google Drive and uses IndexedDB for local content.
- Racko AI (Development)https://github.com/Azmisov/racko-ai/blob/master/FinalReport.pdf
This project is a collection of artificial intelligence for playing the card game Racko. I developed an AI that is competitive with human players—using deep learning and temporal difference learning. I also created a game UI in Java.
