Ruby Experience

  • Listphile.com - a socially-oriented information collaboration site. You can build lists with it! I developed this Ruby on Rails application with David Turnbull from January 2007, through February 2008.
  • Neural Networks - My personal project has been an exploration of artificial neural networks (ANNs). These are programs that model some key aspects of the brain in order to solve problems that can be very difficult to solve using traditional, engineered approach. I wrote a pure Ruby implementation of a back-propagation network, and I wrote a Ruby extension to a back-propagation library written in C. (see Neural Net Extension for Ruby).
