Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring framework for appliance-level energy disaggregation. Random Forest anomaly detection + LSTM load prediction. Smart plug with MQTT + FastAPI backend.
01 What is AXL
Axiom Labs (AXL) is an independent computational research identity — a one-person research collective operating at the intersection of pure mathematics, algorithms, and applied systems.
The name reflects a core principle: build from axioms. Every system should have a rigorous theoretical foundation before implementation. No shortcuts, no duct tape.
AXL is the identity under which I compete in national hackathons, develop independent research projects, and publish technical work. It allows me to maintain a coherent research identity across institutions, competitions, and collaborators.
Currently focused on: Gaussian Process theory and optimal transport, graph neural networks for fraud detection, survival modeling for credit risk, energy systems analytics, and machine learning with mathematical guarantees.
02 Research Pillars
Designing efficient algorithms with provable guarantees. Not just "it works" but "it works because..."
Convex and non-convex optimization for real-world systems — energy, infrastructure, logistics.
ML with mathematical foundations — not black-box models but systems you can reason about.
Computational tools for energy monitoring, disaggregation, and policy optimization.
