Hi, I'm AJ, an aspiring AI Research Engineer in Embodied AI & World Models. enjoy writing software programs that I have a vision for, for example: Immersia & Syneuro both of which are currently under development. I also enjoy independent research where I can write papers, perform experiments, and analyze subjects in AI: Machine Consciousness & Deep Learning.
To sum up, I'm primarily driven by the why and how, where I often look for answers theoretically and practically.
🔬 AI Research & Experimentation
• First-Token Broadcasters: Mechanistic Origins of Language Identity and Distributed Robustness in Transformers: Paper on the mechanistic origins of language identity and distributed robustness in Transformers.
• FTB Graph: Determining and Validating First-token Broadcasters and Language-Identity Head Circuits in Multilingual Language Models: Paper on determining and validating first-token broadcasters and language-identity head circuits in multilingual LLMs.
🌌 Immersive Worlds & Conversational Agents
• Immersia [WIP]: Generative-AI visual novel immersive world.
• Syneuro [WIP]: Neuro-symbolic affective-computing framework for conversational agents.
⚡ Systems Design & Infrastructure
• ParamFinder: A system architecture proposal for a cloud-agnostic orchestration layer for asynchronous hyperparameter optimization.
• RailDB [WIP]: A personal database built in C++, inspired by RDBMS architecture.
• QMonitor: Python monitor tool for quantum experiments in AWS and local environments.
• QuantumRNG: Quantum random number generator simulation built with Qiskit.
🌐 Applications & Web APIs
• Waitlister API: A lightweight TypeScript API for product waitlist signups and referrals.
• Grayscale-Filter: A mini application built with OpenCV for grayscale filtering.
🤖 Applied Machine Learning & Deep Learning (Mini Projects)
