Projects.

On this page I show some of the cool projects I made over the years.

Master Thesis

Concept Bottleneck Models: Investigation of deceptive explainability

In my master's thesis, I demonstrate how Concept Bottleneck models can produce deceptive explainability, meaning that they first make a prediction and then come up with an explanation to justify the prediction, without the explanation telling anything about which concepts are present.

Bachelor thesis

Archetypal Analysis for Ordinal Data

In my bachelor's thesis, I show that Archetypal Analysis can be used on data from the European Social Survey to recreate Schwartz's theory of basic human values as archetypes. The thesis also describes a method to perform Archetypal Analysis on ordinal data. While my method failed to scale properly to a new scale, others were able to build on my work and publish it.

Emotional image analysis

The first project I made in my bachelor's was to use transfer learning to predict what emotions an image would evoke in humans. Note: PDF in Danish

Experiment in Cognitive Science project

Does a robot expressing emotions change its ability to influence humans in a gaze cueing task? We found no significant effects. But I learned to perform Cognitive science experiments.

An optimal solution for BlackJack

Like everyone else, I proved that I know Reinforcement Learning by implementing a classical project from Sutton and Barto.

Ethical portfolio optimisation

Can you be an ethical investor and still make money? In this portfolio optimisation project I include ESG scores in a Markowitz portfolio optimisation. The most interesting part was to see an algorithm perform utilitarian calculations.

Novelty Detection in EEG signals

This project tries to use pre-trained CNNs to map outlier EEG signals for the company BrainCapture.

Exploring How Online Communication Relates to Personality Types: A Reddit MBTI Community Analysis

A small social graph project where we explore which MBTI personality types are on Reddit, which types talk together, and the sentiment of the conversations.
