Probabilistic Graphic Generator 2020
We created a graphic generator using a probabilistic factor graph model and a modification of Metropolis-Hasting sampling to automate the process of creating simple yet aesthetically pleasing graphics that can produce graphics for desktop backgrounds, T-shirts, mugs, posters etc. where details are not as integral, and randomness is welcome.

Bruin Score Check
Ever thought you were fine in a class until you actually calculated your grade and realized you're not? MyUCLA's gradebook doesn't give you a total score, so it's often hard to tell where you stand in the class. Bruin Score Check adds up all the scores in the "Grades" column to give you an unweighted, unofficial final grade.
