Research Projects
Central Washington University
- Worked on an AI for chess using a genetic algorithm.
- Wrote a Neural Network (the Fuzzy ARTMAP) from scratch; also used in chess AI
- Used a fuzzy ARTMAP and a genetic algorithm to predict the chemical properties of HIV medicines (see conference paper above)
- Created a peer-to-peer distributed data system that used an agent-based optimization algorithmResearch Projects
