Code

Eventually this page will contain links to most of the research and non-research related programming I’ve done.

Demos

Mutli-armed Bandits: This JavaScript demo allows you to configure and run a multi-armed bandit game and plot the resulting rewards for a variety of agents.

Feed Bag: This is a simple ruby script that parses and normalises RSS feeds, storing the resulting entries in an SQL database.

Plain Text Wiki: I extended Matt Webb’s original Plain Text Wiki with a few modifications of my own. I use it to manage the content on this site.
ICML Trends: I wrote some ruby scripts to scrape, stem and analyse the last 20 years of ICML paper titles. Some interesting trends turned up.
PhD Thesis Template for LyX: I used the excellent LaTeX front-end LyX to write my PhD dissertation. To have the result conform to UNSW standards I wrote a LyX layout that adds a UNSW title page, copyright and originality statements as well as ensuring that margins, etc. are correct.
Bibdesk To LyX: To help integrate LyX and the excellent (and free!) Mac OS X BibTeX manager BibDesk I wrote a small amount of AppleScript to push selected citations in the latter to the former.
Jekyll: I have contributed some minor improvements (Maruku markup, categories, permalink options) to the static blog engine Jekyll which, coincidentally, I use to run this site.
Instiki: I was one of the contributors to the Instiki codebase. I helped streamline and extend the parser that handles the wiki markup.
