Implemented various machine learning and deep learning algorithms, including perceptrons, logistic regression, multi-layer perceptrons, convolutional neural networks, and transformers, using both low-level libraries like NumPy and high-level frameworks such as PyTorch.

This Java simulation uses evolutionary algorithms to find the best patrol distribution for a galactic empire. It simulates natural selection to evolve patrol allocations, minimizing time spent suppressing rebellions. The simulation ensures diversity through reproduction, mutation, and even simulated epidemics.

Implementation of the Fast-SLAM algorithm on a Turtlebot3 robot using ArUco markers as landmarks within a ROS framework. We created a micro-simulation environment, developed an ArUco detection algorithm, and optimized key parameters. We also integrated an Occupancy Grid Mapping algorithm and RViz visualization.

Build a fully containerized WordPress + Nginx + MariaDB infrastructure from scratch using Dockerfiles and Docker Compose.

In this project was developed an IRC chat server in C++ for real-time communication through direct messages and group channels. Built to the C++98 standard, it uses non-blocking I/O and a single poll() operation to handle multiple connections efficiently and without delays.

Modules of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) concepts through C++98 exercises. This repository covers the four main pillars of OOP—Abstraction, Encapsulation, Inheritance, and Polymorphism. Learned concepts such as namespaces, exceptions, casts, templates, containers, iterators and algorithms
