• Developed and tested code for the Northwestern University Source Separation Library (NUSSL), a Python package of popular algorithms used in audio source separation research
• Implemented algorithms such as the Degenerate Unmixing Estimation Technique (DUET) and Nonnegative Matrix Factorization, and prepared code for launch at Midwest Music and Audio Day at NU
• Investigated manifold air pressure sensor failures and implemented solutions to reduce warranty spend
• Collaborated with quality engineers to determine root causes from claim analysis and sensor reports
• Developed data acquisition system with Teensy 3.1 and designed PCB to process data from vehicle sensors
• Designed and prototyped capacitive position sensor for measuring travel on suspension system
• Wrote software for implementing digital position control of high speed actuator for clutch manipulation
As a developer on the Northwestern University Source Separation Library, I implemented algorithms such as the Degenerate Unmixing Estimation Technique (DUET) and Nonnegative Matrix Factorization.
My first atttempt at my own personal website! I wanted to keep things straightforward and use HTML, CSS, Bootstrap and Javascript to share my work. I also designed a logo in Adobe Illustrator and animated it used jQuery and Velocity.js.
Taking Advanced Mechatronics exposed me to many digital communication protocols like SPI, I2C, and USB, while also providing me with skills in 3D printing, laser cutting and other rapid prototyping tools. The final project was a custom built robot that followed a line using image processing data sent from an Android phone to a PIC32 that powered the motors.
KFCams was my final design project at Northwestern. Using a custom built webcam on a PCB I designed in Eagle, my partner Fahad and I implemented face tracking using a Python OpenCV script on a Tornado server to actuate servos which panned and tilted the webcam to follow faces.
For my final project in Machine Perception of Music and Audio, I led a team of three to develop a Python program which automatically transcribes a monophonic melody or speech and harmonizes the input with jazz piano chords. HM applies the Viterbi algorithm to hidden Markov models to determine the optimal chord progression
In my FPGA design class at NU, for the final project I collaboratively developed a VHDL tank game on an Altera DE-115. We created tank and bullet components using finite state machines and tracked collision detection to keep track of the game score and state.
A piece for orchestra, written for the Northwestern Contemporary Music Ensemble in my Advanced Orchestration class. Here I explored orchestration techniques as well as odd time signatures.
An arragement of this tune for 5 horns, written for my Chord Scale Voicings for Arranging class at Berklee taught by Bill Scism. I made use of spread voicings, 3 horn soli, and 5 part tutti.
