A few photos from my trip to Maine in September.

I wrote a short blog post about the idea of how two evolutionary cognitive abilities can help educators and students create more effective teaching-learning relationships.

Once upon a time in Niagra Falls

I wrote a simple RAG-based procedure as an example for reviewing the procedure and providing a quick and interesting way of learning RAG.

It walks you through the development of a vector database, and then a simple application via Ollama, Milvus, and Streamlit.

I trained a logistic regression model on the source data and then evaluated its performance on both the source and target domains to measure the performance degradation caused by the covariate shift.

The production performance slowly degrades because the feature relationships changed.

Wrote a post outlining the step-by-step process of implementing a PINN for a simple one-dimensional heat transfer problem. I hope this approach makes the topic more accessible to undergraduate students and provides a clearer understanding of how they work.

Recently started doing some sketching as a hobby

SVD and DMD are important concepts to understand when learning a data-driven approach to solving engineering problems.

I have attempted to create a detailed, hands-on post on how DMD can be implemented for a simple steady-state 2D fluid flow around a cylinder: masoudmim.github.io/blog/2025/svd/

If you have New York Public Library membership (why wouldn't? it's free with great benefits!), I strongly recommend using the PressReader app.

It provides you with access to a great number of newspapers and magazines through your NYPL membership account.

For my Data-Driven Modeling course, I had to create some visualizations for comparing Gradient Descent, Momentum method, RMSprop, and Adam. I am sharing two of them in case someone else find them useful
