Agentic AI Engineering

I build generative-AI and agentic systems and put them in production: multi-agent and RAG apps with LangChain / LangGraph, served as tested, containerized FastAPI services with CI/CD. Underneath sits real applied-ML and GPU depth (PyTorch, CUDA, NVIDIA PhysicsNeMo) from peer-reviewed research, which most LLM engineers don't have.

What I do

Three capabilities, one through-line: reliable AI in production.

Agentic AI & LLM Systems

Multi-agent and RAG applications with LangChain / LangGraph and AutoGen. Tool routing, MCP, FAISS retrieval, and prompt engineering across OpenAI, Claude, Groq, Hugging Face, and Ollama, with the LLM wrapped around a deterministic, cited, tested core.

Production AI Engineering

Systems that ship and survive: FastAPI services, Docker, GitHub Actions CI/CD, 525+ automated tests, PyPI packaging, model cards, and live demos. Built so anyone can reproduce the headline number themselves.

FastAPIDockerCI / testsPyPI

Applied & Scientific ML

A real GPU and modeling foundation from peer-reviewed research: PyTorch, CUDA, NVIDIA PhysicsNeMo, neural operators, time-series forecasting, and uncertainty quantification. This is the depth behind the engineering.

HydroPhysicsAI

GPU physics-informed neural operators for groundwater: one operator trained across all 61 wells, benchmarked head-to-head against the per-well gray-box ODEs. A real PhysicsNeMo port with .mdlus checkpointing, a CUDA GPU benchmark, leave-one-well-out generalization, and a probabilistic forecast model with calibrated intervals. It also reports where it still trails the gray-box baseline.

  • 0.236 → 0.565 KGE on unseen wells (beats climatology 0.446)
  • 14× faster on RTX 4070 SUPER vs CPU (bf16 AMP)
  • Live Gradio demo, model card, technical write-up, CI

AquaScope

An open-source toolkit for water data, hydrology, and agricultural water management. 15 unified data sources (USGS, FAO, GEMStat, EU WFD and more), Bulletin 17C flood frequency, FAO-56 crop water, baseflow separation, and an agentic AI engine that scores 26 methodologies and auto-executes 7 pipelines. CAMELS-validated, 500+ tests, on PyPI.

Agronaut

A personal agronomy agent for aquaponics. Instead of retrieving what a paper said, Agronaut computes the answer for your specific system: a tool-calling LLM collects facts and routes, while a deterministic, fully tested engineering core does the math, now calibrated against an open real-pond dataset. It remembers your system across sessions and reasons over a curated troubleshooting knowledge base. Every result lists the coefficients it used (with sources) and what it does not model, so you always know the limits of the design.

  • Trust-boundary architecture: a tool-calling LLM agent over a verifiable, cited engine
  • Cross-session memory plus a deep troubleshooting knowledge base (DO, nitrogen cycle, pH, nutrient deficiencies, failures)
  • Calibrated against published reference systems and an open real-pond dataset
  • Runs as a Streamlit app or a Telegram agent; pluggable Ollama · NVIDIA · HF; design & optimize need no LLM
  • Underlying research granted Taiwan Utility Model Patent M661364 (2024)

paper-agent

A Claude Code plugin that turns the agent into a disciplined manuscript collaborator: five modes (draft, review, revise, proofread, audit), citations resolved through the Semantic Scholar MCP (auto-wired on install), and hard anti-fabrication guardrails with pause-and-confirm after every section. Calibrated for hydrology and IEEE journals, with a generic profile for any quantitative-science field and a clean .docx round-trip.

  • Installable Claude Code plugin (v1.5.0) with bundled try-it demos
  • Auto-wires the Semantic Scholar MCP for real, non-fabricated citations (no API key needed)
  • Hydrology + IEEE journals, plus a generic quantitative-science profile

FASOBAT

A construction-site management platform I built and shipped through POUK YAM, my consultancy: scheduling, crews, materials, and GIS-based site tracking in one Django / React application on Azure REST services. I designed it, built it, deployed it, and I support real clients on it across water, energy, and agriculture.

About

I build AI with a scientist’s discipline.

I build production AI: generative and agentic systems, multi-agent and RAG apps served as tested, containerized services, on top of a real applied-ML and GPU foundation. What I bring that most LLM engineers don't is a scientist's discipline. I respect the constraints, validate out of sample, and never ship a number I cannot reproduce.

That discipline is earned, not claimed. During my Ph.D. at Feng Chia University I built physics-informed gray-box models of the Chou-Shui Chi alluvial fan in central Taiwan and predicted groundwater across 33 wells with RMSE between 0.07 and 0.24 m. HydroPhysicsAI later scaled that approach to a single neural operator across all 61 wells. That is the testing rigor I bring to every system I ship.

Today I am Applied AI Researcher and Developer at the Taiwan Polar Institute, where I build and open-source generative-AI and agentic systems with verifiable cores, served as tested software other people can actually run. I also founded POUK YAM, a consultancy in water, environment, energy, and agriculture, where I ship commercial software like FASOBAT.
