Write-ups and code from machine-learning, simulation and optimization competitions.
| Project | Competition | Summary |
|---|---|---|
| kaggriculture | Kaggle simulation, Aug–Sep 2026 | A planning agent for a two-player farming simulation: layered rule pipeline with min-cost task assignment, a retired hierarchical-RL variant, and a paired-evaluation methodology for an environment with shared randomness. Paper. |
| tc_marathon_166 | TopCoder Marathon Match 166, Aug 2026 | A heuristic solver for a hex-tile path-connection puzzle: Dijkstra routing over a (tile, entry-edge) state graph, basin-hopping search driven by a proven incremental evaluator, contention-aware rerouting, and an analysis of why one long bonus-threaded path dominates the score. Write-up. |
