Research

   I'm currently working on extensions and applications of Convex Partition Optimisation.

Convex Partition Optimisation (CP). CP is an surrogate-based optimisation algorithm, which consists of iteratively partitioning the search space to indentify the most promissing subsets.

    Mini projects

       dPaz (Mini Operative System). dPaz is a LISP-like programming language engineered to run directly from a boot sector. It supports standard arithmetic operators -such as addition, multiplication, and subtraction- alongside dynamically assigned variables mapped to lowercase letters. Furthermore, it incorporates essential control flow mechanisms: an i operator for conditional 'if' statements, a w operator for 'while' loops, and an e operator for variable assignment. A particularly clever feature is the ability to define and store custom functions by appending an uppercase letter to the end of a line; for instance, executing (e a 3) E evaluates the expression and saves the routine under the function identifier E, allowing users to build reusable logic directly within the constraints of the boot environment.

       QWAV (Musical Lenguage based on QWERTY). QWAV is a C-based command-line utility that encodes text-based musical scores into uncompressed 8-bit PCM WAV audio files. It uses a unique syntax where the standard QWERTY keyboard layout is mapped to piano keys, allowing users to "type" melodies and harmonies

       Mystical theology.

    Never perhaps, thank God, has there been so clear a possibility as today of a deep understanding between real science and real faith, mutual servants of one another in the one truth. Do not stand in the way of this important meeting. Have confidence in faith, this great friend of intelligence. Enlighten yourselves with its light in order to take hold of truth, the whole truth. Address of Pope Paul VI to men of thought and science (8 December 1965) [Full text]
