Physics, diving, data science, miscellany.
A loosely-organized directory of my non-work-related technical projects.
This is a project I am working on with the WHOI dive department to study human factors in diving - specifically, how factors such as temperature, visibility, experience level, task loading, etc, influence dive outcomes and diver performance. (This repository is private for now to protect the privacy of the divers until the data is aggregated but a short writeup of some recent work is available at the link.)
This is a work-in-progress project attempting to mathematically model the distribution of skydiving fatalities by the level of problem experienced by the jumper vs their level of competence responding to it, the idea being that the probability of a fatality depends on the probability of a certain level of mishap and the probability of a certain level of compentent responce. This project is currently mostly for my own entertainment rather than serious data science.
Some simple tensorflow examples and related notes. Work in progress.
Some examples of logistic regression will go here eventually. Work in progress.
This is where I put pandas-related notes and examples. Work in progress.
These repositories are my own versions of the tutorials for the following class, which I took at WHOI in Nov/Dec 2017. https://dscl.lcsr.jhu.edu/home/courses/ros_short_course_fall_2017/
I wrote some educational materials for learning quantum electrodynamics (e.g. calculating scattering amplitudes) without (much) prior mathematical or physics experience. I taught this class to high school students as part of MIT’s HSSP educational program. Eventually those materials will make their way up here.
I used to work on KamLAND and I did an undergraduate thesis on joint detection of supernovae using gravitational waves and neutrinos (back before gravitational waves were confirmed to exist!) No clear joint events so far, but we’re keeping a look out!
I did some undergraduate research on bound dark matter states called wimponium
Emergency medicine-related drabbles. Currently this is just a little quiz program for my NREMT recert exam.
Diving-related drabbles. Some calculators and decompression table-related code.
I like this silly programming language and sometimes I play with it.
I was learning C# for a job and this was my first program. It draws fun mathematically-colored circles.
