Monitoring Human Activity with Wi-Fi Metadata

2019 - 2020

I use machine-learning and CSI (Channel State Information) metadata from an ESP32 WiFi prototyping board to sense human movement in an enclosed space. Rough source code is available.

Improving LSTM Neural Networks for Better Short-Term Wind Power Predictions

2018 - 2019

I created modified LSTM (Long Short Term Memory) Neural Networks and used auxiliary weather forecast data to improve ultra-short wind farm output predictions, for use in a smart grid. The paper is published in IEEE Renewable Energy and Power Engineering (REPE) Conference, 2019. Poster and source code also available.

Interpreting Sign Language Using CNN-based Models

2019

I used CNNs (Convolutional Neural Networks) and a video pre-processing system to decode sign language from video frames. Research poster and source code available.

Non-Invasive Detection of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) Through Recurrent Neural Networks

2017 - 2018

I created auditory monitoring hardware and recurrent neural networks to track and analyze the breathing patterns of a sleeping person for signs of respiratory irregularity. Research poster, paper, and source code are available.

Intellistove: An Intelligent Stove that Prevents Cooking Fires and Exploding Glass Flasks in the Lab

2016 - 2017

I designed, fabricated, and tested a smart stove system that turns off when a pot boils dry. It is controllable via secure text message. The research poster, source code, and video demo are available.
