Cadence McGillicuddy contributed to the WE-Autopilot/Red-Team repository by enhancing lidar simulation and reinforcement learning workflows. She developed an arrow-based car orientation visualization, refining the rendering pipeline in Python to reduce clutter and improve dataset validation for computer graphics tasks. Cadence also implemented a ReplayBuffer to support agent learning from past experiences, focusing on efficient data structures and capacity management. In subsequent work, she aligned the RL agent’s Actor/Critic outputs with an updated 8-action space and refactored lidar bitmap handling, improving training stability. Her work demonstrated depth in code refactoring, debugging, and reinforcement learning, resulting in more robust simulation feedback.
March 2025 — In the WE-Autopilot/Red-Team RL agent, delivered stability improvements by aligning the Actor/Critic output with the updated 8-action space and simplifying lidar bitmap handling. Included a minor refactor of environment reset and observation processing to streamline data flow. These changes reduce runtime risk from dimensional mismatches, improve training consistency, and establish a cleaner foundation for future scaling of the action space.
