Projects & Technical Reports

English

Station-Level Bike-Sharing Demand Prediction

Machine learning comparison (Random Forest vs Poisson regression) for short-term demand forecasting using weather, temporal, and urban features. Balances predictive accuracy with operational interpretability for rebalancing decisions. Data Science

Proof of Work Without Heat: Landauer’s Principle and the Economic Origin of Bitcoin’s Energy Consumption

Technical note testing the claim that Bitcoin’s energy use is thermodynamically necessary. Correct Landauer accounting puts the physical floor ≈31 orders of magnitude below real dissipation; consumption is set by difficulty adjustment and miner revenue, not physics — with a falsifiable prediction on PoW’s cost migrating from energy to capital. Technical Note

Lenia: Emergent Computation as Artistic Medium

Implementation and analysis of continuous cellular automata for generative art. Technical Report

Modular AI Agent for Financial Time Series Analysis

LLM-powered agent (Ollama) for OHLCV analysis combining natural language interaction with deterministic, auditable computation of technical indicators. Solves reproducibility challenges in LLM-based quantitative finance. Technical Report
