A full stack website to let users create neural networks with simple block mechanics

Hi there 👋

I'm Daniel Raymond. I do a wide range of things, including sensor development, full-stack, and data science. Previously I've worked at SpaceX, AMD, Untether AI, and Applied Brain Research.

Repos Overview

Embedded and Firmware Projects

• Segway Simulation (Inverse Pendulum)
  • Developing a simulation a segway to determine physical requirements for components
  • In the future I plan to purchase components based on the requirements and build a physical (miniature) segway that can drive around!
• Custom Q Extraction
  • There are many ways to extract the quality factor (Q) from a frequency sweep
  • This is me playing around with a new method (instead of fitting a Bode or Nyquist plot 👀)

Older Projects

• FPGA Neural Network
• Automatic Plant Watering System
• Velocity Data Logger
• Shift Register Bar Graph
• Four-Wire Fan
• Asm Snake on LED Matrix

Data Science Projects

• Defining Prerequisite Trees
  • The internet has so much knowledge, but it's hard to know where to start
  • I am attempting to use Wikipedia articles to tell a user what to learn before they can understand any topic.
  • As not all knowledge is heirarchical, I am currently just doing this for math articles
• Passion Mapping
  • Some knowledge is relational, so it'd be great to visualize the "proximity" of topics
  • I used Wiki articles (w/ click-through rates & word2vec) to map all articles into a 2D space. Clustering this space allows you to understand true groupings of topics

Full Stack Projects

• UW Blueprint: Rowan House Course Platform
  • I am a Project Lead at my University's student design team
  • We are developing a course platform for an Albert-based NPO to save them $10 000
• Personal Website
  • Currently made in Nuxt (Next + Vue) with some sweet sweet continuous integration 😎
• Passion Finding App
  • Built an app where users can search a 2D space of topics they might be interested in
  • Uses the map made in the corresponding data science project
• Canadian Undergraduate Technology Conference
  • Project Lead for CUTC

Current Focuses

I'm currently working on segway and Prerequisite Tree.
