Can Humans Detect AI? Mining Textual Signals of AI-Assisted Writing Under Varying Scrutiny Conditions
Does the threat of being caught change the way people use AI to write? And if it does, can other people tell the difference?

Dimensionality Reduction From Scratch: PCA, ISOMAP, and Eigenfaces
You have thousands of features but only care about the patterns that matter. Here’s how to find them.
Density Estimation and Mixture Models From Scratch
How do you estimate the shape of data when you don’t know what distribution it came from?
Clustering Algorithms From Scratch
You have 10,000 data points. How do you find natural groupings without any labels?
Classification Algorithms From Scratch
Given a data point, which class does it belong to? We build three different classifiers and see when each one shines.
