Nov 24, 2021Predict Patient Outcome for ICU StaysICU (Intensive Care Unit) is the care unit in a hospital system that most frequently encounters life and death. For patient’s family members, it is also an exhausting experience to wait hours outside ICU and have no clear sense of the outcome. On the other hand, given the large amount…5 min read5 min read
Nov 14, 2021Simple Convolutional Neural Network with SHAPCNN (Convolutional Neural Network) has been at the forefront for image classification. Many state-of-the-art CNN architectures had been devised in the recent years to tackle the hardest computer vision problem, range from digit classification to real-time object detection. In this blog, I will cover a simple convolutional neural network that…Convolutional Network5 min readConvolutional Network5 min read

NCSES designs and administrates national surveys to support researches that uses its data. One of these datasets…6 min read6 min read
Sep 27, 2021Interactive Visualization on Malaria DataMalaria is a fatal disease caused by parasite and is transmitted to humans and other animals through the bites of infected mosquitoes. People who are affected by malaria would typically experience high fever and chills. According to CDC, an estimated 229 million incidences of malaria were recorded in 2019 and…4 min read4 min read
Sep 16, 2021Prime in an Arbitrary Expansion of πGoogle had a recruitment puzzle in which the candidate is asked to find the first 10-digit prime in the decimal expansion of 17π. In this blog, I go through how I approached this problem. One of the challenges with the problem is generating an arbitrary large expansion of a natural…Pi3 min readPi3 min read
Sep 3, 2021Euler Project — Largest Palindrome ProductIn this blog, I go though the approach I’ve taken to solve the Largest Palindrome Product problem from Project Euler. The problem description defines a palindromic number as any positive integer that reads the same backwards as forwards. It also provides an example of the largest palindromic number — 9009…Euler Project2 min readEuler Project2 min read
Sep 3, 2021Euler Project — Double-base PalindromesIn this blog, I go though how I solved the Double-base palindromes problem from Project Euler. The problem first describes what is a double-base palindrome — it a number where both its base 10 form and binary (base 2) form are palindromes. …Euler Project2 min readEuler Project2 min read
Sep 2, 2021Euler Project — Bouncy NumbersIn this blog, I talk about how I approached the Bouncy numbers problem from Project Euler. The problem description first defines what is a bouncy number — it is a positive integer where its digits from left to right are neither increasing nor decreasing. The problem description then states that…Euler Project2 min readEuler Project2 min read

Dec 3, 2020What Does Statistically Significant Mean?Statistical Significance is one of the most important concepts in statistics. It’s being used widely in all sorts of scientific publications and is the fundamental building block for many common statistical tests such as ANOVA testing. People often associate Statistically Significance with ‘p-value’ and always pair it with numbers such…Statistics7 min readStatistics7 min read
