Sorting Vallejo Paints with Machine Learning
This article explores how to visually sort color collections using both statistics and machine learning. After experimenting with PCA for dimensionality reduction and simple color ordering, I shifted to XGBRanker, a machine learning method that learns personalized color preferences. By comparing these approaches, I aimed to find a method that ...

Curious how your paints stack up in color space? I analyzed my Vallejo paints by converting RGB values to HSV, visualizing them in 3D, and clustering them to identify dominant groups. Learn how to optimize your miniature paint collection using data-driven insights while keeping your hobby creative and fun.
Semiconductor Packaging Technology
Wire bonding and flip-chip packaging represent two fundamental approaches to chip interconnection. While wire bonding offers simplicity and cost benefits, flip-chip allows higher density and faster signals. Adhesive and solder-based methods help balance thermal expansion and reduce stress. The industry continues shifting toward compact, high-performance packaging formats.
Electron Paramagnetic Resonance spectroscopy
Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, also called electron spin resonance (ESR), is a technique for studying materials with unpaired electrons, such as organic and inorganic radicals, and transition metal complexes. It functions by detecting magnetic properties of electrons. This post covers the science of EPR, its key components, real-world applications, ...
Einstein, Politics and Science
The first world war (WWI) started in august 2014, and the German army proceeded very fast through Belgium. This rapid progression created a problem in the cities that were already captured, as the main army moved on to other locations. Harsh measures were taken to avoid any kind of resistance. ...
History of Physics (1895 – 1945)
Physics has always been an interesting topic, but it was during a span of only 50 years that physics completely changed the world. The movie "Oppenheimer" showed in great detail the history of what happened and how they got to the atomic bomb. But this is only part of the ...
