About Me

Hello, my name is Brenden DeLong. I am a graduate of Western Governors University with a Bachelors degree in computer science. I love coding, I enjoy staying up all night with a warm cup of coffee at hand working through an intense session of coding. I enjoy the fact that with code you don’t need special tools on hand, instead every tool you need is right at your fingertips. I’m especially fond of working as part of a team of people with various backgrounds all working toward a shared goal.

Projects

A list of projects I have accomplished

Primate Classifier

In this project I used artificial itelligence to analyze images of primates and catogorize them according to species. The algorithm utliizes a convolutional neural network using the TensorFlow framework and Keras API.

Appointment Scheduler

Schedule appointments using Java and the JavaFX framework. This is where I perfected my use of Java and JavaFX. I learned how to use JDBC and integrate MySQL with my project. Time and Time Zone conversions were especially challenging to implement in scheduling.

Quixel

Create, Catalogue, and track products and their part derivatives using the JavaFX Framework. This was my first attempt in using Java and JavaFX. In this I explored Polymorphism and Inheritance using Java. Later updates involved a proper code structure (MVC) and basic use of MySQL JDBC to store part and product data.
