Well, hello there! 👋

I do self-driven AI research and test small language architectures. I am a fan of hybrid models, state-space dynamics, and gating mechanisms.

🔬 Research Interests

• Architectures: Hybrid Language Models (SSMs, Hopfield Networks, Latent Transformers)
• Time-Series: Autoregressive Simulation Modeling of Astronaut Stress data (including Temporal Fusion Transformers)
• Behavioral Dynamics: Time-Series Modeling of Psychological Behavior
• AI Safety: Value-Aligned AI, Transparency, and Democratic Governance in RLAIF/RLHF

📚 Recent Self-Research Work & Theses

• 🐍 mlx-mamba3

* Description: Native MLX reimplementation of the Mamba-3 architecture optimized for Apple Silicon (Metal). Replicates upstream block-selection logic, core Mamba-3 recurrence concepts, inference-cache semantics, and config structure, supporting mixed-precision SFT (LoRA) and hybrid Attention-Mamba models.

• 🌌 [Mambo/DeepSpark/VLM]()

* Description: Hybrid Vision-Language architecture merging a vision patch compressor, Mamba-3 linear scan, and Sparse MoE, featuring parallel agent contemplation over an internal Reasoning in Memory latent workspace.

• 🌌 CALM-Seal

* Description: A hybrid implementation of Shao et al. their Continuous Autoregressive Language Modeling (CALM) fused with State Space Models (SSM) and Hopfield Networks and gating + rectified flow.

• 🧠 Hamba

* Description: Novel hybrid Hopfield + Mamba inspired architecture combining SSMs and Hopfield networks with attention (BPE PPL of 16.2 on FineWiki), two hierarchical reasoning passes (Segmented-Reasoning), and rectified flow.

• 🏛️ Master's Thesis: RLAIF/RLHF for Public Value Alignment (REPO)

* Description: Enhancing transparency in LLMs through value alignment. Focused on aligning Mistral-7B with democratic transparency values (VU Amsterdam, 2025).

• 📊 [Time-Varying VAR/GAM and Temporal Fusion Models](Repository)

* Description: Extension of my BSc thesis extrapolated to astronauts on a 1-year mission. Predicting psychological behavior from simulated Astronaut stress data over a year with 3% shock event data (VU University Amsterdam, 2024).

📊 ML Undergrad Research Work
