I participated as a student in Google Summer of Code in 2020. I worked on #link("https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/projects/#6675798750134272")[New Spectral Upsampling Methods] for #link("https://www.colour-science.org/")[Colour], an affiliated project of  #link("https://numfocus.org/")[NumFOCUS].

I've published my #link-self("gsoc/proposal")[project proposal]. Maybe it'll help you if you're planning to participate yourself. The summary of my work, the *work product submission* can be found under #link-self("gsoc/work_product_submission")[this permalink].

I maintained a blog throughout the program. (It's actually a requirement for students under NumFOCUS). A few posts are purely progress updates, but most of them cover the math and color science behind the code I was developing.

Big thanks to Google, NumFOCUS, and most importantly my mentors, #link("https://github.com/MichaelMauderer")[Michael Mauderer], #link("https://github.com/KelSolaar")[Thomas Manscencal] and #link("https://github.com/hao-xie")[Hao Xie], for a great and fun summer, and the opportunity to work on a really cool project.
