In character, in manner, in style, in all things, the supreme excellence is simplicity.

- Integrating product KatOne with Recurly, Stripe, Salesforce, and other Katalon products.
CNRS Remote C++ Developer Intern 6/2019 - 9/2019 I implemented the algorithm to compute shortest non-contractible cycles on a 2-manifold, being part of the Surface mesh topology package. It is then used to compute the edge-width and the face-width of the surface. The surface can be orientable or non-orientable and may or may not contain boundaries. Inria Remote C++ Developer Intern 6/2018 - 8/2018 I implemented the region growing algorithm, being a part of the Shape detection package. The algorithm has been generalized to be working with any user-defined elements, connectivity method, and validity checking rules. Popular instantiations of the algorithm include: Detect 3D planes from a cloud of points with normals attached to them; Detect 3D planes in a polygonal mesh; Detect 2D lines among a set of 2D points. It searches for spatially neighboring points using Kd tree, and the planes/lines are fit using Linear regression method. It is a robust, simple, and consistent shape detection algorithm, improved from RANSAC method, and is used widely in 3D/2D segmentation.
