Who am I?

Hi, My name is Richard. I am an aspiring Research Student, currently aiming to pursue a Master in Computer Science. You can see some of the things I have done here.

Background

I have been doing some sort of programming since my 1st year in Secondary school (6th grade - middle school); and ever since playing around with Adobe DreamWeaver at school I have been fascinated by Web Development. I then took my first steps in HTML in 2018.

Current

I am currently in my NaN year at the University of Lincoln studying a BCs in Computer Science. I am currently working on my dissertation project which involves 'emulating a Lua compiler using different forms of RNNs'.
I am interested in NLP and Machine Learning, along with compiler development. I am aiming to build a mix of different tools from scratch, to get a feel for how they works. In the past I have dabbed in web development and would like to get more into computer vision, since I found Image Processing to be an interesting module at University.

Other

Other than coding I read many books in my free time, as well as tend to my tortoise 'Fred'. I enjoy linguistics, I am also studying Korean, German and French, because languages have always intrigued me.
