  9. Title
    MODEL FAMILIARITY
    Detail
    Beyond the architectures I have used hands-on, I regularly study modern vision, multimodal, language, medical imaging and computational biology models. This includes SigLIP 2, EVA-CLIP, SAM 3, nnU-Net, ViT, Qwen, Llama, DeepSeek, Kimi, MedGemma and genomic models such as AlphaGenome and Geneformer. I focus on understanding their architecture, training objective, scaling behavior, benchmarks, limitations and practical use rather than treating familiarity with a model as equivalent to hands-on experience. The model notes I keep are part of this ongoing study.
  10. Title
    READING
    Detail
    I love reading books and research papers. My current reading is centered on machine learning, causality and computational biology. Key books include The Book of Why, Causality: Models, Reasoning, and Inference, Causal Inference in Statistics: A Primer, and Elements of Causal Inference: Foundations and Learning Algorithms. The reading is not separate from the research work. It is mainly about understanding what can be inferred from data, where the assumptions enter, and how interventions can provide stronger evidence than observation alone.

    Detail
    Git, Jupyter, LaTeX, lex/yacc, CUDA-level debugging.
