Afloat16 — robotics, large language models, and 3D reconstruction

My research focuses on robotics, large language models, and 3D reconstruction.

I build reproducible research tools, explore native software protection, and contribute focused upstream fixes.

¹ Positions follow GitHub’s commit-sorted contributor list, not PR counts or maintainer status. Equal commit counts follow GitHub’s returned order. Stars and positions are dated snapshots. The second table includes repositories without a verified top-30 placement. All 69 PRs, commit counts and verification method.

Code adopted into the default branch

TD-MPC2 (986 ★, verified contributor-list position #3): preserve target-Q history and evaluation mode during model conversion. The implementation from #98 was cherry-picked with Afloat16 authorship; the original PR was closed without merging. Together with the 22 repositories above, this makes 23 upstream projects with accepted contributions.

Robotics Toolbox also incorporated the circular particle-heading work from #735 into #883, retaining co-authorship. These adoptions are recorded separately from the 69 merged author PRs. Details.

Research and engineering workflow: Research to Fix · Debate Direction · StewardCheck · Agent Action Notifier.

How I work: isolate the symptom, understand the boundary, write a regression, and make the result inspectable. The six domain utilities have 67 local tests and 36 passing OS/Python CI combinations at the recorded release. These are experimental diagnostics and conversion tools; each repository documents its limits.
