As an NBA fan and game analysis blogger, I have always sought to compare players' contributions from an objective and quantitative perspective. My journey began with downloading raw data and organizing it in Excel, but I soon realized that changes in rules and tactics made the original data insufficient — I needed a more systematic analytical model.

This curiosity led me through MOOC machine learning projects, cosmic ray detection research, and underwater robotics engineering. In each experience, I strengthened my conviction that data holds discoverable patterns and that statistical modeling and algorithmic optimization are tools not only for processing complexity, but also for revealing underlying physical laws.

My goal is to become a data mining engineer who develops data-driven strategies and solves related global challenges — bridging rigorous mathematical foundations with real-world interdisciplinary applications.
