Extending the Sherlock plagiarism detector with new algorithms

For my dissertation I performed an investigation into the different algorithms used by source code plagiarism detectors. This involved extending an existing plagiarism detector called Sherlock with three additional algorithms. These were: an attribute counting algorithm, the Greedy-String-Tiling algorithm used by JPlag, and the Winnowing algorithm used by MOSS. In this post I'll briefly go over each of the algorithms and how they where implemented.

A game made using three.js in a couple of weeks

This is a small game I made as part of my computer graphics module at university made using three.js. The objective of the game is to destroy the enemy spaceships by shooting them, while avoiding getting hit by enemy missiles. The player switches between piloting their ship in a top-down view and shooting the gun in a first-person view.

A university group project

Introduction

During my second year at university, as part of our software engineering module, myself and a team of four other students were tasked with designing and developing software for a client, which in our case was Deutsche Bank.

We were tasked with designing a prototype system that could be used to provide live audience feedback, including an estimate of the group mood/sentiment, during a presentation. In this post I'll talk about how we approached this task and how I lead backend development.
