- Worked in KLab Photonics as part of the Dean's Undergraduate Research Initiative under Dr. Nathaniel Kinsey - Designed a neural network algorithm for the inverse design of hyperspectral gratings using the Python Tensorflow and Keras APIs - Used PYSCATMECH, a Python API for an RCWA tool to simulate the response of diffraction gratings generated by the network, and compare to ground truth data - Taught an Intro to Machine Learning course to other members of the lab, teaching machine learning from an electrical engineering perspective, with emphasis on hands on assignments using Jupyter Notebooks
