Welcome to Lemonfold.io

Welcome to my personal website and blog. The name “lemonfold” reflects my fascination for geometric methods in machine learning and robotics especially related to folding and unfolding. It is a verbatim and deliberately inaccurate translation for the German name of Gonepteryx rhamni—a beautiful yellow/lime green butterfly (which happens to be my favorite color). The technology behind this page has been inspired (read: shamelessly copied) from Chris Holdgraf’s website so kudos to him!

On this site, you can find out more about me here and read my blog. I love teaching and explaining so I hope you find my articles interesting and you enjoy reading. Feel free to leave some feedback. You will need a GitHub account and adjust the privacy level accordingly (the cookie symbol at the top) to do so.

This is how Gonepteryx rhamni looks like.
