Hey, I'm Asahi Lama Sherpa
I ship intelligent systems that deliver measurable impact. From probabilistic match predictors to real-time face recognition, I focus on building things that work in production—not just in notebooks.

Production systems that solve real problems with measurable impact.
World Cup Outcome Predictor
Probabilistic match and tournament predictor using historical international match data, calibrated team strength ratings, and Monte Carlo simulation. Processes 20+ years of match data to generate win probabilities and tournament forecasts.
10,000+ simulations per tournament • 2nd place (2 years)
💡 Built a system that consistently outperforms bookmakers—predictive accuracy translates to real value.
One-Shot Face Recognition System
One-shot face recognition pipeline using pretrained deep learning models. Recognizes identity from a single labeled image in live camera feeds with real-time inference.
Single image training • <100ms inference
💡 Real-time recognition from one example—minimal data requirements, maximum deployment flexibility.
Financial News Analyzer
Processes 1,000+ financial articles per day with sub-second semantic retrieval using embeddings and similarity search. Built for rapid information discovery in high-volume financial news streams.
1,000+ articles/day • <1s retrieval time
💡 Production-grade semantic search that scales—fast retrieval matters when markets move in milliseconds.
Competition wins, research, and leadership.
X-17 boson search (AT-TPC); ADHD biosignal triage. Research symposium, 2025.
Best Speaker (Division). National tournament wins.
Led 4-person team; ML optimized $1M+ resource allocation; delivered report + stakeholder pitch.
Looking for AI/ML internships where I can ship intelligent systems that create real impact.
