About me

I am currently a student at Arizona State University, pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science. With a perfect 4.0 GPA, I am set to graduate a semester early in May 2025. As I approach this milestone, I am actively seeking full-time employment opportunities.

My journey into the world of programming began at the age of 7, thanks to my grandfather, a computer science professor, who ignited my passion for coding. This early start led me to attend one of the best STEM high schools in Russia, where I graduated at the top of my class, nurturing my love for math and physics.

By the time I was thirteen, I had begun exploring the field of machine learning, creating my own projects. Throughout high school and college, I competed in numerous hackathons to showcase my skills and have held leadership positions in software engineering clubs at my school. Over the years, I've built numerous projects and conducted scientific research in machine learning, from developing web applications using Flask to crafting AI models with TensorFlow.

Upon graduation, I am looking to join a company where I will continue to be challenged and encouraged to innovate.

Project name

Available at: https://rubilia.dev

Github: https://github.com/Rubilia/personal-website

I made this website to showcase my web development skills. The frontend is made using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript / Jquery, while the backend is powered by Python Flask. The entire website is run using Docker containers, which handle SSL certificate issuing and renewal using Certbot, and has Nginx built-in for traffic handling.

The website is fully responsive, ensuring a seamless user experience across different devices and screen sizes.

Various performance optimization techniques have been applied, including lazy loading images and minifying CSS/JS files, to ensure fast load times and a smooth user experience.

Google Analytics is integrated to track user interactions and gather insights for further improvements.

Startup Success Prediction Model

At the Silicon Valley Bank Hackathon, I led a team of five members to secure 2nd place with an innovative project. I focused on the backend, developing a natural language processing (NLP) model using TensorFlow in Python, designed to forecast the success of startups in the finance sector, achieving a 75% accuracy rate.

The model leveraged data from multiple sources to make accurate predictions. I utilized the Twitter API to gather real-time tweets about various startups, capturing public sentiment and trending discussions. Additionally, I incorporated Google search results, Google Trends data, and internet mentions to enrich our dataset, providing a comprehensive view of each startup’s online presence and public perception.

The core of our model was based on transformer architecture, the same technology that powers ChatGPT, which enabled us to effectively process and analyze large volumes of text data. This sophisticated approach allowed us to identify patterns and insights indicative of a startup’s potential success.

This experience challenged me to integrate diverse data sources and apply machine learning to real-world problems.

Unfortunately, SVB did go bankrupt shortly after granting my team a $10,000 check…

C2PRL stands for Centralized 2 Part Reinforcement Learning. It is a research project I've been working on. When I was studying AI, reinforcement learning caught my interest and I started implementing different algorithms from that field myself. But I always wanted to create something unique. I began reading research papers and got inspired by DeepMind's research on hierarchical AI. This led me to develop my own hierarchical AI.

After months of contemplation, I finally came up with the idea: an agent composed of two neural networks. The first is the Brain, which generates a game state for the agent to reach within a specified time, focusing on long-term success. The second is the Executor, which attempts to reach the state generated by the Brain within the given time. The Executor learns the short-term mechanics of the game environments. Together, they produce sophisticated strategies quicker than a single neural network and with less training data.

I tested my algorithm on Atari games, a standard benchmark at the time, and it outperformed humans and DeepMind's early algorithm, DQN. Following this success, my mentor helped me prepare for a science conference where I presented my work and achieved 2nd place.
