I´m Elton Sampaio
Hello, I'm Elton Sampaio
My name is Elton Sampaio, an Angolan 🇦🇴 software engineer with a Bachelor's in ICT and a Master's in Software Engineering. I am passionate about inclusive AI development, contributing to projects such as Latimer.ai, a large language model focused on African American history, and collaborating on a Ph.D. project to leverage AI for energy efficiency in HVAC systems. I am also actively training a language model tailored to Angolan contexts on Kietu.tech. My technical expertise spans both backend and frontend development, where I work with frameworks like Spring, Express, FastAPI, Flask, React, and Next.js. I am enthusiastic about computer graphics and 3D web environments, utilizing tools like Unity 3D, Processing, P5JS, and Three.js, and my background includes extensive work with graph data structures, a core element of my master’s thesis. I am currently expanding my knowledge in data structures, algorithms, HVAC-AI integration, and containerization with Docker and Kubernetes. Additionally, I am exploring vector databases and advanced language model techniques such as Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to enhance AI model accuracy and application. My skills, adaptability, and drive allow me to contribute across diverse projects, from web and mobile applications to in-depth research initiatives.

Ticket Validation System
A university project were we built a system that allows users to manage their concert tickets. The system allows users to buy tickets, view tickets, and see receipts of purchases. The system generates a QR code for each ticket to be validated.
File Management System
University work. Application that allows you to share folders and files securely by applying some security concepts such as CSRF, defense coding and security and following security artifacts such confidentiality, Integrity and availability.
Binary Tree Visualization with Depth-First Search (DFS) and Call Stack
A visualization tool that focuses on traversing a binary tree recursively while visualizing the call stack
Cheapshop
University work. Compare prices in supermarkets and tell where your shopping list is cheaper. Developed using react native with a backend in nestjs and mongo db
Vector Embeddings-Based Recommendation System with Pinecone
I built a simple article recommendation system using embeddings and vector databases. The idea is for users to input a prompt, and the system will recommend published articles based on similarity.
Visualizing Boids: A Flocking Simulation
This exploration delves into Craig Reynolds boids, a simulation mimicking bird flocking. Reynolds identifies three key behaviors: Alignment, Cohesion, and Separation.
