Projects

🏠 splat-local

Turn a video walkthrough into an explorable 3D Gaussian Splat β€” fully local on Apple Silicon. It combines COLMAP poses, a native trainer that matches CUDA gsplat quality, and a live browser viewer where you can watch the scene resolve out of the fog as it trains. No cloud, no CUDA, and nothing leaves your Mac.

An experimental Rust port of libarchive and its four command-line tools: bsdtar, bsdcpio, bsdcat and bsdunzip. It provides a typed Rust API and C-compatible shared and static libraries, with the goal of preserving upstream behavior for existing applications. Compatibility tests, fuzzing and reproducible benchmarks track the port against the pinned C implementation; platform coverage and known differences are documented in the repository.

⚑ fastscipy

An experimental drop-in accelerator for SciPy: call fastscipy.patch() and existing SciPy code runs faster, with results that are byte-identical to SciPy's. Rust kernels and multithreaded wrappers replace the slow parts of ndimage, stats, signal, interpolate, sparse and linalg; everything else falls through to SciPy. Across 211 benchmarks it is 5.2Γ— faster on one thread and 17.5Γ— on 18 cores, and SciPy's own 88,000-test suite gives the same outcomes with the patch on. Currently validated on Apple Silicon.

🎧 Cadence Code

Talk to Claude Code or Codex instead of typing. Cadence Code is a fully local voice companion with on-device speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and summarization, wired up through MCP with no cloud API keys. Install it, say hello, and code by conversation.

πŸŽ™οΈ VoiceType

A fast, private, open-source voice-to-text dictation app for macOS. Built for low latency and a polished user experience, with everything running completely on-device.


Hackathon

Project What it does
world-model-property-tour 🏠 Marble Hackathon β€” turns a 2D floor plan image into a 3D building shell, then pipes it into Marble / World Labs scene generation for an interactive property tour.
MindShift ⌚ An Apple Watch + web app that reads heart-rate and behavioral signals and runs AI analysis for mental-wellness nudges.
Ai-Commentator πŸƒ Real-time AI commentator for poker. Uses Gemini 2.5 Flash with a timestamp-cache trick to deliver near-zero-latency, hallucination-resistant live audio.
ReCast 🎬 Video β†’ best raw prompt β†’ anime restyled versions, generated with Gemini 2.5 Flash.

ML & Research

Deeper dives into the models behind the products.

Project What it does
Sycophancy-RL 🩺 Reducing medical sycophancy with truth-weighted RLHF. A condition-aware reward penalizes endorsing a user's misconception, training Qwen3 (1.7B–7B) via GRPO / online DPO on Modal.
Image-Rebroadcasting πŸ›‘οΈ Detecting & defeating image recapture (rebroadcast) attacks. EXIF + ResNet + physics-based MoirΓ© detection on the defense side; UNet camera simulator + adversarial generator on the attack side.
Movies-Topic-Modelling πŸŽ₯ Unsupervised pipeline that extracts themes from movie reviews and scores per-theme sentiment, using BERTopic + OpenAI labels + NLTK.
