Neural Network Framework

I implemented a deep neural network library from scratch in C/C++ which achieved 98% accuracy on the MNIST dataset. I designed a modular architecture allowing for flexible layer configurations and built-in training using backpropagation and SGD.

Trading Pair Simulator

I used a Monte-Carlo approach to predict the likely path a trading pair will take. From the most recent snapshot of the Level 2 limit order book, it simulates people making random trades over a given time period. The model was evaluated on data from pairs listed on the Binance exchange. I coded the predictor in C/C++ and the evaluation in Python via pybind11.

Binary File Reader for Neovim

I made a Neovim plugin in Lua for reading binary files in the terminal. When activated, it reads the file as hex characers and allows the user to hover over bytes and edit them. It also shows the value of the currently selected byte in a variety of formats (int8, uint64, float32, float64, etc.) in real time. My plugin is the first Neovim plugin to do this.
