Hey — I'm a third-year CS student who spends most of his time trying to make small models punch above their weight. Lately that means RL post-training, inference-time memory, and figuring out what's actually possible on a laptop GPU.
I like problems where the constraint is the interesting part.
Qwen3-0.6B Reasoning Pipeline · active
Training a 0.6B model to reason using a 4-stage GRPO pipeline — SFT coldstart, RL on math, mode fusion, then generalization. At inference I attach a Hopfield episodic memory bank (~20MB) that retrieves similar past problems as context. The bet is that a sub-1B model with the right inference-time setup can match 7B+ on reasoning benchmarks.
PowerBench-Consumer · complete
Benchmarked LLM inference and GRPO training on an RTX 2050 (4GB VRAM) — extending DREAM:Lab's Jetson Orin AGX methodology to hardware most people actually own. The interesting finding: INT8 is 3× slower than FP16 on consumer GPUs, the opposite of what happens on the Jetson. Quantization benefits don't travel across hardware architectures.
FP16 → 2,407ms · 13.29 tok/s · PPL 14.80
INT8 → 10,056ms · 3.18 tok/s · PPL 19.46
INT4 → 3,965ms · 8.07 tok/s · PPL 15.36
Neural Global Illumination Engine · complete
Reframed Global Illumination as a regression task — an MLP learns to predict radiance instead of ray-tracing it. Brought per-frame compute from 26ms down to 11ms with a +4.1dB PSNR improvement. Runs at 60+ FPS with dynamic lighting and moving occluders.
Deepfake Detector · complete
Multimodal detection pipeline across video and audio. 85%+ accuracy, processes 10K+ frames and audio samples per batch in under 3 seconds.
