Computer Graphics
Rasterizer
- A rasterizer built in C++ that renders SVG files
- Supports texture mapping and anti-aliasing using trilinear filtering with mipmaps
Mesh Editor
- A mesh editor built in C++ that can manipulate geometric mesh model data
- Features include Bézier surface modeling, local remeshing operations such as edge flips and edge splits, and mesh upsampling via loop subdivision
Ray Tracer
- A physically based renderer using path tracing for global illumination
- Uses a bounding volume hierarchy (BVH) as an acceleration structure for ray-object intersection
- Uses adaptive sampling to reduce noise and improve rendering quality
Cloth Simulation
- Real-time physical simulation of cloth with mass-spring computational modeling
- GLSL shader implementations for diffuse lighting, Blinn-Phong shading, texture mapping, bump/displacement mapping, and environment-mapped reflections
Quads
- Computational pixel art: animate quadtrees of images using their color statistics
Nature in Code Simulations
- Biology simulations and visualizations using JavaScript
Data Processing
N-body Simulation
- A parallelized N-body simulation in C++ using the MPI (Message Passing Interface) protocol for high-performance computing, with optimizations using Barnes-Hut approximation algorithms
- Includes a visualization of the simulation using OpenGL
K-Means Machine Learning
- A k-means machine learning algorithm optimized for performance using C++ and CUDA GPU programming
Distfit
(Undergraduate Research Project for
Wayne Hayes's Group at UCI
)

Web Development
Approval Workflow Engine
(Intern Project for Varis)
- A business rules engine that processes purchase requests and manages corresponding approval workflows
- With extensive configuration options, users can edit business rules, approve or deny orders, reprocess requests, and have comprehensive status updates, all from an intuitive web interface
- Frontend UI using Javascript and React, backend API using Go, and database access/design using PostgreSQL
- Includes unit and integration tests with over 80% code coverage integrated into a CI/CD pipeline
Virtual Earth System Laboratory
(Undergraduate Research Programming for JPL /
Wayne Hayes's Group at UCI
