Fresh Stuff - Django/Python
Toola is an ongoing Django-powered site that allows you to share the tools and environment where you get your best work done.
This is my second Django project and from the beginning I have tried to note all the steps and info you need for those in the same steps!

Python Twitter Widget
Creating a simple twitter module for your page using python-twitter.
GP NEAT
I graduated from
the
University of Central Florida
in 2007 with an M.S. in Computer Engineering and from
Florida International University
in 2005 with a B.S. in Computer Science.
My thesis work was on the evolution and visualization of Genetic Program programs represented as trees by using methods analogous to
NEAT. I had two great advisors,
Annie Wu
and
Kenneth Stanley
.
My thesis - A NEAT Approach to Genetic Programming
SocialAgents
Graphical simulation of agents following a gradient signal to find a target.

Extreme Blue Internship
Extreme Blue - IBM Almaden Research Center - San Jose, CA - 2007
Developed healthcare components and business process workflows to serve as a framework for clinical applications. We used
WebSphere
tools (Integration Developer, Process Server and Enterprise Service Bus, Business Monitor ) to create and deploy services. Created business analytics using the open source Business Intelligence Reporting Tool
(BIRT)
and WebSphere Monitor and Portal Server. Delivered prototype to IBM's customer at the end of summer. Prepared sales pitch and marketing information and presented project at an expo in IBM's Headhquarters.
Picbreeder.org
I worked along with the
eplex group
in picbreeder.org, a collaborative web project. "Picbreeder is a collaborative art application based on an idea called evolutionary art, which is a technique developed by scientists that allows pictures to be bred almost like animals. For example, you can start with a butterfly and actually breed it into an airplane by selecting parents that look like airplanes."
Smart Home
Worked with a group of students on a "Smart Home" Project at University of Texas at Arlington. Designed physical/mathematical model for light sensors to interact with lamps in rooms in order to detect anomalies in lighting systems. Used transformations/matrices to construct a grid of rooms and programmed such model. Used Apple Rendezvous Technology (now Bonjour ) to simulate autonomous interactions between sensors and lamps. Investigated the physical properties of photocells, conducted experiments and analyzed data using GNU plot. Created GUIs using FLTK/FLUID/C++ to demonstrate how an anomaly detection system should work. Learned how to use the X10 protocol within the WISH project.
