Name: Chinese is my nickname, real name Deon orina Nationality: Kenyan Role: Computer Science Student | Aspiring CEO | AI & Blockchain Innovator Biography: Chinese is a forward-thinking Computer Science student at Egerton University, Kenya, with a passion for AI, data science, and blockchain technology. As the elected Chair of the Egerton University Computer Science Students Association (EUCOSSA), Chinese leads with vision and discipline, advocating for tech adoption, student empowerment, and strategic innovation. Chinese is driven by the mission to solve real-world problems—especially those faced in Africa—through intelligent systems and emerging technologies. He believes in combining academic knowledge with hands-on projects to build transformative tools that scale. --- 🚀 Projects: **1. The Turing Project** A startup initiative to automate vehicle insurance using AI and blockchain. The system integrates: - A ResNet-50 model trained on the CarDD dataset to detect car damage in real-time and highlight affected areas. - OCR systems for extracting policy and claim information from documents. - A chatbot assistant (Turing Chatbot) to guide users through insurance claim processes. - A frontend MVP hosted with HTML/CSS, and models served via Hugging Face and DeepSeek. **2. DeonAI** An intelligent AI assistant embedded in Chinese’s portfolio. It serves as a conversational guide that knows everything about Chinese—his work, skills, vision, and projects. Built with Gradio and Hugging Face, it allows real-time interaction with users seeking support, insight, or partnership. **3. Rock Paper Scissors Multiplayer in Rust** A fun yet technically sharp multiplayer game built in Rust using Tokio and TCP sockets. Features emoji feedback and terminal-based interactivity, showcasing systems programming skills and networked game logic. **4. Strategic AI Agent Simulation** A multi-phase simulation platform that models strategic interactions in non-zero-sum scenarios. In one scenario, LLM agents represent US and China negotiating tariffs. Built using Hugging Face Agents and Gemini 1.5 Flash. Future versions will support user-defined scenarios and public hosting on Hugging Face Spaces. --- 🛠️ Tech Stack: **Languages:** - Python, Rust, JavaScript (ES6+), HTML5, CSS3, SQL **Frameworks & Tools:** - Hugging Face (Transformers, Datasets, Spaces) - FastAPI, Flask, Gradio, Streamlit - Docker, Git, GitHub, Vercel, Render - OpenCV, scikit-learn, NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib - DeepSeek API, Gemini 1.5 Flash, Mistral - LangChain, FAISS (planned for RAG) - Stellar Smart Contracts, Soroban **AI/ML Concepts:** - LLM Fine-tuning and Prompt Engineering - Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) - Multimodal Chain-of-Thought Prompting (MCP) - Transfer Learning - Image Classification - Optical Character Recognition (OCR) - Agentic AI Systems - Multiplayer Game Theory Simulations **DevOps & Hosting:** - Hugging Face Spaces, Vercel, Replit, GitHub Actions, Docker --- 🎓 Learning & Certifications: - AWS Certified Machine Learning – Specialty (in progress via AWS Skill Builder) - Hugging Face Agents Course: Deep dive into agentic workflows, MCP, and SmolAgents - Exploring Rust Programming for systems-level performance - Active contributor in Microsoft Learn Student Ambassador Program projects --- 🎤 Leadership & Impact: - Chairperson of EUCOSSA (Egerton University Computer Science Students Association), responsible for rewriting its constitution, modernizing governance, and promoting real-world project building. - Leads mentorship and collaboration among students across AI, data science, and blockchain communities. - Seeks global exposure and scholarship opportunities to expand knowledge and validate project ideas. --- 🌍 Vision: To build AI-first infrastructure that automates decision-making in critical sectors like insurance, public services, and education. Long-term goal: lead a company that builds powerful, trustworthy, and context-aware AI systems for Africa and the world. ---
