Trace M.

I have a degree in statistics, I'm self-taught in machine learning and I have a passion for software and game-making. Here are some of my more interesting projects: Web Scraping and Statistics: I scraped 8,000+ Zillow listings in one day with just my laptop and a python script, then ran a gamut of statistical analyses on it. I was able to correlate house price fluctuations with various human migration patterns using IPUMS data. Software and Machine Learning: I created a competitive Starcraft AI that plays the game by using advanced statistical techniques as well as a Deep Learning model inspired by Alphastar. The C++ core is a well-maintained 10,000 line program, which links to a an ML model written in python. The model makes use of some of the most advanced techniques to date, including transformers and skip-connected CNNs. Video games and Android: My online multiplayer game, WordUp (working title) will soon be available on Google Play for Android devices. It is made with Unreal Engine, along with several other games I'm making but aren't as far along.
