Independent Study
-
The Clash of Models: Agent-Based vs. Equation-Based Modeling
Notes on why Agent-Based Models (ABM) and Equation-Based Models (EBM) diverge, and how they complement rather than compete with each other.
Colab
Pointer entries to executable notebooks — the linked GitHub repo is the source of truth.
-
Building GPT from Scratch — Course Lab

Calibration and TUM Accounting
Digital-twin validation experiment testing whether a compact haulage simulator reproduces the operation's aggregated indicators closely enough to support policy comparisons.
-
Heterogeneous Autonomous Communication
Digital-twin experiment measuring the production value of interoperability when an autonomous haul fleet shares the mine with other manufacturers' equipment and manually driven vehicles.
-
Human-in-the-Loop vs. Autonomous vs. Stigmergic-Inspired Heuristic
Digital-twin experiment comparing five dispatch-governance configurations — human-only, human-in-the-loop, human-on-the-loop, central autonomy, and a decentralized stigmergic-inspired heuristic — under normal operation and simulated FMS or shovel failures.
-
Implementation of the Coevolution Model
Implementation of a coevolution model where node opinions and network structure change together, as a network science course exercise.
