I built a multi-sport AI forecasting platform solo -- by architecting and directing a fleet of Claude agents through ~1,500 commits, with hard validation gates deciding what ships. Broadcast video in, calibrated probabilities out, every number on the way traceable to a receipt. Open to ML, Computer Vision, Quantitative Research, and Sports Analytics roles -- and to teams that want someone who can direct AI agent fleets that ship verified software.


CourtVision

court-vision -- an end-to-end multi-sport forecasting platform (NBA, MLB, soccer, tennis).

Broadcast Video -> YOLOv8n detection -> SIFT homography -> Kalman+Hungarian tracking
  -> OSNet re-ID -> OCR -> court-coordinate features that exist in no public dataset
  -> calibrated win-prob + prop models -> possession-level Monte Carlo
  -> walk-forward, leak-guarded validation -> receipt-backed evidence layer

What makes it different is the epistemics, not the model zoo:

  • Leak-free walk-forward validation with assertion-level per-fold guards and truncation-invariance property tests -- the harness fails the build on lookahead.
  • 21,000+ pre-registered hypothesis cards: claim, expected sign, and magnitude written down before outcomes are looked at, then graded mechanically. The large majority of graded cards are honest REJECTs -- which is what real signal discovery looks like.
  • A full-season market-efficiency result I publish instead of hiding: my calibrated models match the Shin-devigged closing line within noise on team-strength markets across 6 independent corpora. The one measured win is in-game conditioning (pregame prior fused with realized game state), labelled as calibration, not a betting edge.
  • A reject graveyard and retraction log: 500+ candidate signals killed by the gate with reasons recorded; early headline numbers that did not survive adversarial re-audit are documented as retractions, not quietly deleted.
  • A receipt system: every headline number on the public evidence surface carries its source artifact path, sha256, honesty label, and as-of date -- and a fail-closed linter blocks the bundle on edge-language or any retracted number.

Start here: docs/JOB_EVIDENCE_PACKET.md -- the adversarially-audited account of every claim, including the do-not-claim list.


Single-concept repos distilled from the platform

Repo The skill it isolates
walkforward-guard Leak-proof time-series CV; the demo plants two real leaks and catches both
calibration-gate Brier decomposition, ECE, PAVA/Platt recalibration + a 2-corpus acceptance gate
prereg-cards Pre-registration workflow: peek-guarded registry, mechanical grading, honesty lint
shin-devig Four de-vig methods incl. Shin (1992) via stable bisection
kalman-hungarian-tracker Multi-object tracking from primitives -- hand-rolled 6D Kalman + Hungarian assignment
agentic-fleet-playbook Orchestrating AI agent fleets that ship verified software, failure modes included

How it was built

A solo human directing a multi-model agent fleet: a frontier model decides, reviews, and adjudicates; mid-tier models execute in parallel against frozen contracts; small models scan. Hard guardrails live outside model discretion -- pre-commit hooks, fail-closed lint gates, append-only ledgers, binding invariant files. The patterns (and the failure modes) are written up honestly in agentic-fleet-playbook.

The market is mostly efficient. Saying so, with instruments, is the credential.
