Sanskrit Text Summarization
I researched a translation-based machine learning approach for text summarization in Sanskrit using Python. Upon completing the manuscript, I shared my findings with professionals at Intel, Princeton, USNA, CMU, and IIT Kanpur. I also submitted my paper to the 7th International Sanskrit Computational Linguistics Symposium, where it was narrowly rejected.
Minimax and Chinese Checkers
In collaboration with some of my peers at the Pennsylvania Governor's School of the Sciences, I worked on implementing a minimax algorithm to play the game of Chinese Checkers. In the process, my team and I tested changes in the performance of the minimax algorithm with slight changes to better understand the ideal strategies for the game when played by a computer.
Artificial Intelligence to True Intelligence
Pivotal Essay Contest Submission
In my submission addressing the ethics of artificial intelligence to the Pivotal Essay Contest, I argued for increased research into neuromorphic computing to address the widespread qualms that surround artificial intelligence. Refer to the paper linked below for my complete argument.
Light Display
Computer Science Club
As founder and president of the computer science club, I managed and directed the first and second productions of McDowell's "Winter Wonderland" light show outside the school building. We sought to pursue this project to spread some joy to the community during the holiday season!
Text Planner App
CS50x Final Project
This project is a text-based planner application that allows users to log tasks to a SQLite database which can then be accessed through the website. To allow users the convenience of adding tasks on the go without having a laptop handy or having to visit the website to add an item to their to-do list, the application allows users to text a given phone number in the format "CATEGORY: TASK".
BigFuture Live Panel Discussion
As part of a BigFuture Live event (powered by the College Board), I was a panelist providing insight and tips to underclassmen in high school!
Vehicle Selection Program
Pennsylvania Junior Academy of Science
For my freshman-year Pennsylvania Junior Academy of Science (PJAS) project, I created a program using APIs, alongside various modules, that would identify the best vehicle choice, given a user's preferences.
Fibonacci Presentation
Math Club: Higher Level Math Committee
The higher-level math committee of McDowell's math club and I presented an introduction to Fibonacci as well as some of the applications of the Fibonacci sequence. We discussed the basics of the Fibonacci sequence, alongside the golden ratio and its presence in nature.
