Engineering Questions

Each project is indexed by the question that caused it to exist. The implementation is evidence; the repository name is secondary. Measurements appear only when they were recorded during the work.

Visual computing

Work	Question	State
Medical video systems	How can rare epileptic events be detected in long, constrained clinical video?	Research completed
BrowserPose	Can action recognition run privately in a browser without a backend?	Completed
Fast Table Detect	How far can classical CV go before a document model is necessary?	Completed
Segmentic	Which pruning level improves edge throughput without destroying segmentation quality?	Completed
DepthEye12	Can monocular depth add useful distance estimates to ordinary object detection?	Completed
Trident-WM	Can a robot predict future visual states in a compact latent space?	Completed

Runtime and infrastructure

Work	Question	State
EchoPulse-CPP	What does an ESN runtime look like without Python or PyTorch at the edge?	Completed
HotStart	Can loading and execution overlap to improve LLM time-to-first-token?	Negative result
More projects	Can vLLM have a small, Ollama-like operational interface?	In progress
More projects	Can test-time latent computation extend a frozen language model?	In progress

Applied ML

Work	Question	State
VoiceTrack	Can meeting transcription remain local and still identify speakers?	Completed
More projects	How can BERT adaptation and serving fit a smaller training budget?	Completed

Professional systems

The professional ledger also includes a 17,000-line ACL migration, multi-GPU VLM serving, OCR infrastructure, secure clinical data collection, a revived Haskell/Jupyter system, and reproducible bare-metal deployments. These are documented in Systems Works and Research.
