Constructed an augmented feature set combining MFCCs with wavelet transforms to improve genre classification. Demonstrated that hybrid features boost accuracy for low-capacity models and offer a richer, more robust representation of musical signals.

Enhancing transformer-based sentiment analysis models, such as BERT, by integrating informal language variants into training data to improve robustness against slang, misspellings, and emojis.

Investigating the use of transformer models for video-to-audio sequence generation, optimizing single GPU inference with encoder-decoder architectures across three parameter scales (60M, 150M, 350M).

An extension of an older project, where I built an interactive Conway's Game of Life with photo initialization.

A web application which uses audio analysis algorithms to generate real-time, interactive visual patterns that respond dynamically to different audio features, creating unique audiovisual experiences.

Organized and built RiceTeaCatPanda and HouseplantCTF, cybersecurity Capture the Flag competitions with thousands of participants across the globe.

A string quartet composition performed live as a capstone, encapsulating the feeling of being adrift unfortunately.

A partimento composition exercise in harmony and counterpoint. It follows a cat's journey through a supposedly-abandoned parking garage.

Charlie Parker's 1946 Dial recording of "Ornithology" demonstrates bebop's revolutionary approach to transforming jazz from within.

Exploring the intersection of Asian and Western music through artist stories and 88rising's cultural milestones.
