aQuetzalcoatlus/README.md

Hi there 👋

I am Karthik, a doctoral researcher at the Forschungszentrum Juelich, Germany. I am a science educator passionate about communicating complex ideas to a broad audience in a way that they get an intuition about the underlying concepts.

My current focus is on agent-based simulation of crowd dynamics.

Master's thesis

My master's thesis, completed in August 2025 from the University of Freiburg focused on the topic of Combinatorial Optimization. Check out this repository to learn more and read the full-text.

Featured Projects

Forest Loss in the Schwarzwald
Forest loss in the Schwarzwald

Through this repository, I analyse geographic data to identify tree loss over a range of years.
Agent-based infection simulation
Infection Spread Simulation

A small agent-based simulation demonstrating infection spread among moving particles, completed as part of coursework.
QEC Exercises
QEC Exercises

A growing set of hands-on exercises for learners looking to understand quantum error correction concepts.

Past Projects

  • CCS Exercises : Archive of selected exercises I completed from the course "Classical Complex Systems" I completed in winter semester 2023 at the University of Freiburg.

  • I occasionally try the freeCodeCamp daily challenges, and upload my results here. This work is primarily aimed as a hobby, and additionally to help me practice clean code principles in Python.
