Chess Coaching with Maia-2

Course Project — STA 561D: Probabilistic Machine Learning

An interactive chess tutoring system combining Maia-2 (human-like move prediction) with Elo-adaptive coaching, position evaluation, and a regret-and-retry mechanism.

Numerical Study of Kakeya Maximal Inequalities

Undergraduate Research — UW–Madison Department of Mathematics

Investigated Kakeya maximal inequalities through numerical study and mathematical visualization, resulting in a department presentation and poster.

Learning Under Symmetry Constraints

Course Project — COMPSCI 675D / ECE 685D: Introduction to Deep Learning

Studies equivariant linear factor models and autoencoders under orthogonal symmetry, with applications to D4-equivariant autoencoders on MNIST.
