Extending Algebraic Subtyping to incorperate support for algebraic effects and handlers. Final score - 19/20

Implement several learning algorithms in PySC2

Project made for the course ’Software Architecture’. The goal was to design a software architecture in UML for a IoT-platform concerning pluggable sensors. The platform allows storage of customer data and the use of third party applications for data analytics. Final score - 18/20

An nodejs application to create an iCalender file for courses at KU Leuven. Allows the creation of a schedule containing courses from different masters and the option to ignore events.

The thesis gives an overview of how machine learning algorithms could be used for intrusion detection using only IP Flows. The system has been used to detect intrusions in Cegeka Hasselt Datacenter network.

Both Content-Based Recommendations and Collaborative filtering techniques were implemented. Made in a team of 5 (Pieter Teunen, Luuk Raaijmakers, Brent Berghmans, Axel Faes, Matthijs Kaminski, Wouter Bollaert) utilising Java and the Spring framework. Final score - 15/20

Project made for the class ‘Technologies and Tools for User Interfaces’.
A tower-defense style game written in Unity utilising Optitrack motion capture. The game combines the virtual world and reality, by allowing users to interact with the virtual world using real-world objects. Made by Brent Berghmans, Axel Faes and Matthijs Kaminski. Final score - 18/20

Cardinal is a small, fast, class-based, Object Oriented scripting language written in C. It is built upon the skeleton of an existing scripting language and shows how I can modify and improve existing software, as well as design new components to this software.

New components include a debugger, an embedding API, multiple inheritance and a new module system.

A summer school which focuses on teamwork in cross-cultural and multidisciplinary teams, global product development and entrepreneurship. Our team developed a start-up idea on Food Management/Delivery system. Product pitch took place at the end of the course for feedbacks from professionals. Our team consisted of Axel Faes, Linh Chi Evelyn Phan, Reinaert Van de Cruys and Maria Barouh.

A Visual programming IDE created by Axel Faes & Matthijs Kaminski for a course of Hasselt University. The purpose of the IDE is to create ‘black boxes’ which can send events (signals packed with data) to eachother. We take the idea of using drag-able blocks in a visual IDE and expand on it.
