Why This Site Exists

Why this personal knowledge base exists, what it covers, and the principles behind how it is built and maintained.

Last updated: 2026-08-14. This site exists for three reasons:

1. A public engineering notebook

Working in computer vision and edge AI means constantly accumulating small experiments, hard-won configuration details, and notes on new tools. Publishing those notes keeps them organized and makes them useful to others facing the same problems.

2. A portfolio of real work

Papers, patents, books, and talks are collected here so that the technical work behind them — datasets, evaluation details, and implementation notes — is transparent and reproducible.

3. A place to share what works

Many pages document specific solutions: deployment on Jetson and Hailo devices, CUDA kernel tuning, optical flow methods, LLM orchestration, and model optimization. Sharing these reduces duplicated effort across the community.

Principles

  • Content is technical and practical, written from direct experience.
  • Sources are cited where relevant, especially for published work.
  • The site is continuously updated rather than frozen.
