Feasibility Study for an Expansion at the Canadian High Arctic Research Station.
Autumn 2017
A study of renewable energy production technologies and arctic building techniques to determine the viability of building a power-generating expansion to POLAR Knowledge Canada's High Arctic Research Station in Cambridge Bay, Nunavut. Experts and representatives from POLAR Knowledge Canada and the University of Ottawa's Civil Engineering Department were consulted during this research.
This feasibility study was a collaborative effort by the members of BARE Engineering and was conducted at the request of, and presented to, a committee of professors from the University of Ottawa's Civil Engineering department.
Shallow Foundation Design for a Condominium at 231 Cobourg Ave.
Winter 2017
A shallow raft-foundation design for a proposed eight-story condomium at 231 Coburg Ave, Ottawa, Ontario. The site at Cobourg Avenue is unique in that beneath a thin layer of sand rests a deep layer of Leda Clay close to the water-table. Leda Clay is known to liquify under pressure when saturated, so increased safety measures were considered in the design.
Waste-to-Energy Plant Design to Service Canadian High Arctic Research Station.
Winter 2018
A design for a waste-to-energy plant to be built in the High Arctic. This building was designed to reduce Cambridge Bay's ecological footprint while meeting its growing energy needs. With the knowledge gained from the earlier conducted feasibility study, a light-weight building was designed which would sit a few feet above the permafrost on socketed piles. This building also featured sate of the art insulation materials. This report was presented to professors in the University of Ottawa's Civil Engineering Department.
Foundation Design for a New Commercial Building at Tenth Line.
March 2020
A pile foundation design for a proposed development at Tenth Line, Ottawa, Ontario. Iterative design was used to develop a suitable foundation in primarily sand. Site data was determined from borehole logs taken on site.
Notes on Wavelets and the Extended Fourier Transform.
Spring 2020
An investigation into the abilities of Wavelets and the Extended Fourier Transform(EFT) to uncover a signal's underlying properties. Originally intended to determine the viability of Wavelets and EFT in algorithmic trading this investigation revealed interesting features of signals at varying frequencies.
Computer generated training data.
Autumn 2020
A pipeline to create segmented data in several prominent segmented image formats: YOLO and COCO for example. Virtual rooms were procedurally generated in blender and sequences of images, with corresponding segments for objects and walls, were generated. Three dimensional vertices defining objects in-frame were projected onto the image plane and reduced to only those necessary to express the object's silhouette. Then the segmented data is converted to the desired format. The aim was to determine if a neural network could learn from computer generated graphics.
Parametric Space.
Autumn 2020
A quick investigation into how space could be parametrized, partly undertaken as a part of Computer Generated Training Data. A design pattern which related pseudoranom elements to collective expresion was coded such that random collections of spaces following this pattern could be generated.
WaveGAN.
Winter 2021
An investigation into the temporal variation of entropioc signals, as revealed by time windowing its wavelet transform. A generative adversarial neural network was then developed which sought to lean how the wavelet transform of a signal varied with time and would therefore be able to extrapolate it forward.
Proposals for a Trading AI.
Spring 2022
An overview of an AI designed to trade Cryptocurrency. Modelling financial markets a stochastic process, the proposed AI implements generative adversarial networks to make reasonable price predictions. Wavelets are also implemented in order to reveal lower frequency trends. Implicit in this design is the cyclical nature of seemingly random events.
Meta-Learning Generative Adversarial Networks
Winter 2023
An investigation into Generative Adversarial Networks for extrapolating nonlinear dynamic stochastic systems.
Elder Scrolls V Skyrim - True Nord Edition.
Spring 2022
A graphical overhaul and gameplay rebalance/rework aimed on focusing Bethesda's Elder Scrolls V Skyrim on the human aspect. The vanilla game echoes many modern ideas but these are easy to miss amidst all of Skyrim's magic and sorcery. The True Nord Edition refocuses the game such that these ideas are more prevalent.
AI Images
Spring 2023
Several Images I created with AI.
