Current Position
I am a member of the NED3 lab at the University of Arkansas. I conduct research analyzing pool boiling data in order to optimize two-phase cooling systems. To do this I use popular machine learning models and create my own using tensorflow, pytorch, or scikit-learn. This work involves using large datasets consisting of high speed images and acoustic signals; hydrophones or ae signals.
Skills
Over the course of my graduate studies I have developed several valuable skills through research and coursework. Specific courswork includes Intro to Deep Learning, Data Mining, Computer Vision, Engineering Statistics, etc. Here is a summary of skills.Python and SQL
I have been actively using Python for the past 4 years. I have used it for several projects. I have more recently began learning SQL.
I have used it for a few projects such as a lab inventory web app.
Machine Learning
I am profienct in popular python machine learning libraries; tensorflow, pytorch, and scikit-learn. Additionally, I have a strong understanding of the governing concepts behind the models and understand metrics to analyze their performance.
Operating Systems
I use both Windows and Linux for my work. I have ran models on supercomputers with linux os using SLURM files. Additonally, I have installed and used cuda on a Linux computer in the lab.
Additional Skills
I know how to program in LabVIEW, arduino, and MATLAB. I also have some experience with C++ and Java. I also know SolidWorks.
Projects
I have done many projects over the course of my graduate studies.
Temporal-Spatial Framework
Analyzed the impact of adding temporal information for high-speed image based heat flux predictions.
Acoustic Regression
Created and compared regression models for boiling heat flux predictions via sound.
