N·LIN
My work builds predictive models of human behavior — gradient-boosted learners, transformer-based language models, and the psychometric instruments that keep both honest — deployed inside institutional data systems.

Builds & demos ///
01.
Behavioral Prediction
Gradient-boosted tabular models of human outcomes — with calibration checks, honest baselines, and validation discipline treated as the deliverable, not the garnish.
[ prediction · tabular ]02.
Measurement & Psychometrics
Instruments before models: item response theory, reliability, construct validity — the quantitative-psychology layer under every credible prediction task.

Language as Data
Transformer pipelines — DeBERTa-v3 classifiers, sentence encoders, BERTopic — turning free text into structured, analyzable signals for organizational research.

This domain is also a knowledge system.
Behind this page sits a personal KOS — private by default: a wiki-shaped ontology database of concepts, methods, artifacts, and the relations between them. Working notes and notebooks sync behind access control; public excerpts are opt-in. The graph also feeds retrieval for my own research agents.
