Hey! I'm Cathy — and yes, the Kernel in CathyKernel is deliberate: I'm drawn to the core of things, whether that's operating-system kernels, kernel methods in machine learning, or the elegant heart of a mathematical proof.
- 🔭 Right now I'm asking how machines remember — probing whether factual recall in small language models comes down to decodability or causality (that's my FactLens research project)
- 📈 Quant-curious — I love bending probability and statistics into working tools, from RCT analysis to a live-updating US equity quant terminal
- 🧩 Puzzles become programs — N-Queens, Sudoku, a Rubik's Cube solver, even a hand of Texas Hold'em
- 🌌 Code is my canvas — I once brought Van Gogh's Starry Night to life with pure code
- 🎵 My daily equation: math for logic, music for rhythm, and code to bring both to life
