Brian J. Wilimzig

Turning messy, real-world signals into clear, visual stories — with Python, data, and a dash of 3D.

What I’m building now

  • Restaurant Turnover — EDA → Baseline ML
    Notebook-first workflow with an HTML export for quick review.
    Repo: https://github.com/APT-5A/restaurant-turnover

  • Visualization Patterns
    Reusable snippets for clean plots, small-multiples, and dashboard-ready HTML blocks.

  • Creative Tech Experiments
    Houdini dynamics + Python utilities to make simulation results easy to explain.


Featured Projects

🧭 Restaurant Turnover (ML playground)

🎛️ Notebook Visual Storytelling

  • Goal: opinionated patterns for “explain-as-you-code” notebooks (analysis first, then insight).
  • Stack: IPython display, HTML/CSS blocks, pandas profiling-style helpers
  • Repo → (coming soon)

🧩 Houdini / 3D Notes

  • Goal: small utilities & notes that bridge simulations and data storytelling.
  • Repo → (coming soon)

How I work (repeatable notebook rhythm)

  1. Show the step (code) → 2. State the takeaway (Observation / Insight block)
    This keeps analysis readable, reviewable, and presentation-friendly.
  • Clear sections: Data Intake → QC/Profiling → EDA → Baselines → Validation → Packaging
  • Exports: notebook.ipynb and notebook.html (inputs + outputs)

Toolbox

  • Python: pandas, numpy, scikit-learn, matplotlib
  • Viz/storytelling: HTML-in-notebook blocks, lightweight dashboards
  • Ops & data: Git, GitHub Actions (basic), CSV hygiene & reproducible runs
  • Creative: Houdini, Blender (geometry nodes), ComfyUI

Learning roadmap (near-term)

  • Model evaluation beyond accuracy (ROC-AUC, PR curves, calibration)
  • Feature importance that doesn’t lie (permutation, SHAP)
  • Packaging analysis for stakeholders (one-click HTML/PDF)
