Hi, I'm Colin! I'm a junior at Emory University studying computer science and mathematics and I have interests in both software engineering and data science/machine learning.
Propose and investigate methods of improving image recognition under a low contrast environment. Train large-scale convolutional neural networks and integrate approaches for divisive normalization. Improve accuracy of base model by ~4% for low contrast images.
Grading for a combined graduate and undergraduate class of 40 students. Intermittently cover lectures for professor and tutor students during office hours
Grading and curriculum planning of undergraduate class of 60 students. Tutor students during office hours on relational databases(MySQL).
Built a model that classifies whether a gene variation may contribute to tumor growth.
Aim to Improve bottleneck for cancer treatment; ~60% accuracy in predicting 9 classes of tumor growth.
Relevant Coursework:
Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Data Mining, Systems Programming, Data Structures & Algorithms,
Computer Security, Computer Science Practicum, Database Systems, Digital Electronics
Discrete Structures, Linear Algebra, Foundations of Mathematics, Multivariable Calculus,
