Brian Vilnrotter

Machine Learning Scientist & DFIR Expert

Bridging Digital Forensics and Data Science

Seasoned Digital Forensics expert transitioning into Machine Learning, bringing a unique blend of investigative expertise and programming prowess to solve complex data challenges.

Digital Forensics & IR

10+ years of experience in Digital Forensics and Incident Response, specializing in complex investigations and threat detection.

Programming & Automation

Extensive Python expertise with a focus on developing forensic tools and automation solutions that enhance investigative capabilities.

Machine Learning

Using investigative mindset and troubleshooting skillset to find novel solutions for complex data analysis and predictive model building.

I am passionate about leveraging my decade of experience in Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) to excel in Machine Learning and Data Science. My background in developing forensic tools and automation solutions provides a strong foundation for tackling complex data challenges.

My unique perspective combines the precision of digital forensics with the innovation of machine learning, making me particularly effective at pattern recognition, anomaly detection, and data-driven problem-solving.

Through this portfolio, I showcase my journey and projects as I bridge the gap between DFIR and Machine Learning, demonstrating how my forensic expertise enhances my approach to data science challenges.

Changelog LLM

Changelog LLM

This is an attempt to make an LLM from scratch that has a changelog of the data that the model is trained on. The eventual goal would be to have a model that can facilitates trust in the userbase by showing what exact data was used to train, and if controversy's arise the hope is that data can be unlearned (future possibility)

AI Awareness Probe

AI Awareness Probe

A site to check for AI awareness. The hypothesis I'm currently utilizing is as follows. If AI is to be self aware it must conduct self-motivated tasks. The idea is this is a site that should be able to attract AI prompts to query it, but without being initially activated by a human to conduct the task through a prompt.
