The most amazing...
...thing I've implemented was a deep learning algorithm looking at simulated dark matter distributions to predict cosmological parameters that govern our universe.
Employment
Experience
- You've Got Meal
As part of my experience as a data science fellow at Insight, I deployed a recipe recommendation web app using collaborative filtering and implicit feedback using purchasing and online recipe data.
- Behavioral Biometric Phone App for Continuous MFA
A background app that uses multimodal data (e.g. accelerometer, GPS, typing, etc.) for continuous multi-factor authentication. I was the machine learning engineer, where I analyzed data, developed models and built them into production. I worked with mobile and back-end teams to store the models and data in the cloud and deploy the product on Android.
- CosmoFlow: Using Deep Learning to Learn the Universe at Scalehttps://sc18.supercomputing.org/proceedings/tech_paper/tech_paper_pages/pap429.html
I worked with a team from Intel, Cray, and LBNL to build a deep learning model for cosmological data that ran on the entire supercomputer at Berkeley National Labs. I developed and trained the final model. Our work was published at Supercomputing Conference 2018.
