Happy New Year 2024!

All the best, Ken! Not too shabby. Hope to see more of these boxes are checked by 12/31/24 🙌

My 2023 New Year Resolutions

• Artificial Intelligence
  • Deep dive into deep learning with PyTorch Used Keras/Tensorflow instead
  • Link R for data wrangling and Python PyTorch for deep learning Thanks for reticulate. Been using python modules when R package not available
  • Establish a deep learning project in ID Still Work in Progress, but excited!
• Statistics
  • Learn bayesian analysis Learnt some Stan
  • Learn bayesian network
  • Write a blog on clinical application of Bayes’ Theorem link
  • Learn LaTex Math formula
• Econometrics
  • Establish an Instrumental Variable methodology in ID
• Technology
  • Learn how to make an iOS application
• Health & Wellness
  • Lose 15 lbs through more activities & portion control
• Communication
  • Establish “Coaching” questions
  • Use these words (e.g., “really”) less to enhance neutrality
  • Find out staff’s favorite food, color, activities and write it down
• Leadership
  • Encourage creativity, team-approachness to solving problems

Devoted a significant amount of effort this year on the data science department’s goals. Not too shabby. Although I tried to learn Swift, my busy schedule and ongoing learning commitments meant I couldn’t delve as deeply as I wanted. Unfortunately, I didn’t find any instrumental variables in ID to start a study or explore the question more thoroughly. Also, I didn’t manage any weight loss, which is disappointing, but I’m determined to do better next year. For the coming year, I aim to set more practical and achievable goals, especially in the area of soft skills, to enhance my overall development.! 加油！
