Research Experience for Undergrads Student
DePaul University
(Educational Institution; Computer Software industry)
June 2006 — August 2006 (3 months)
Was part of a three person team (lead by a faculty mentor) working on content based image retrieval (CBIR). The team I was a part of took an idea from conception to workable implementation in ten weeks. We wrote a C# application that tested several CBIR methods and released it under an open source license. We also wrote up the results of our research and submitted three papers to computer imaging conferences and I presented one of the papers at SPIE Medical Imaging.

Seattle Pacific University
2003 — 2007
In the fall of 2006 for my Software Engineering class, I was a part of a team that created a personal video recorder with a browser front-end called WebVo. It was built on Linux and written primarily in Ruby with a MySQL database. We used AJAX techniques on the browser to create a dynamic user interface. The project was successful and useful enough to release under an open source license on Google code hosting (http://code.google.com/p/webvo/).
