Donald Bertucci
I am a junior at Oregon State University studying Computer Science and Mathematics.
I create human focused ways to understand complex models and data.
In the past, I've created interactive interfaces to interpret machine learning models with a lot of data.
Nowadays, I enjoy the biological inspiration: the mind, vision, behavior, and more.
