AI-Driven Engineering Automation: From Technical Drawings to Structured Code

Selcuk Oner

Bachelor’s thesis, University of Agder; in collaboration with Red Rock AS · 2025

A prototype that uses YOLOv11 to detect components in hydraulic schematics, lets users review the detections, and generates Structured Text from their connections.

02

Scientific abstract evaluation with ROUGE/BERTScore and LLM-as-a-judge

Selcuk Oner

University of Agder · 2025

A local evaluation pipeline comparing ROUGE, BERTScore, and an LLM judge on scientific summaries from three models. The methods showed weak agreement on individual summaries.

03

Reinforcement Learning for Chinese Checkers

Selcuk Oner

University of Agder · 2026

A Chinese Checkers agent trained with PPO and action masking in a custom PettingZoo environment, with analysis of training and tournament play.

Projects

Induced Demand Traffic Simulator

Selcuk Oner

An interactive Python simulation with adjustable road capacity and demand. It uses car-following and lane-changing models to illustrate how congestion can return after roads are widened.

Background

Experience

Data Analyst & ML Engineer

Norwegian Coastal Administration

Returned to develop AISyRisk, the Coastal Administration’s grounding-risk calculation system. Further developed AIS-based data pipelines and models, and improved internal risk-calculation services.

Data Analyst & ML Engineer

Norwegian Coastal Administration

Developed a machine learning model to analyse and predict vessel sailing patterns from historical AIS data. Built a data pipeline for model training, applied geospatial analysis, and presented findings to the team and management.

Deputy Lead, Autonomous Division

Align Racing UiA

Developed and tested LiDAR-based autonomous driving systems. Implemented path planning and obstacle detection with ROS and Python.
