Academic and Professional Activities

Softwares and Scripts

I have written a Python script that runs the Gale-Shapley deferred acceptance algorithm to match students to advisors. It can as well be used for matching students to schools / departments having a fixed capacity. A sample output is here. The whole project is on GitHub. The Facebook page for this app.
