Hi there! I'm
Yusyra Hossain
Welcome! I'm Yusyra, second-year computer science student at the University of Toronto 👋.
I’m currently focused on improving my programming skills and working on personal projects to grow as a developer 😎.
Throughout my studies so far, I've really enjoyed learning theorical calculus (RIP MAT137; it's no longer offered at UofT) and linear algebra. I'm also interested in exploring machine learning and data science in the future 💡!
Beyond academics, you'll most probably find me reading historical fiction/non-fiction, spending time with my family, or disappearing into random internet rabbit holes after stumbling across an article (likely on Quantum Mechanics or WW2) 🌀. Oh, and of course, grinding Leetcode!
Feel free to explore my projects and get in touch, even just to say hi 📬! You can reach me at or connect with me on .
This section highlights my substantial CS projects. The rest live in my ; feel free to check them out 🌐!
Note: These are written in a blog-style format, so they include a mix of technical details and personal reflections on the project journey. For a more techincal and consise overview of each project, check out the README files in the respective Github repos 💻.
An interactive graph-based visualization tool that predicts bird species interaction probability in Toronto (2025) using previous interaction data from iNaturalist.
A comparative analysis of electricity accessibility factors across African countries using statistical methods, done in colaboration with the CATF.
My first-ever hackathon (vibe-coding hackathon), presented by bolt.new. A web-based educational game designed for Calculus 12 students, it combines gamified learning and interactive tools to make calculus more fun.
My first-ever full scale project. A fantasy-themed twist on the classic Rock, Paper, Scissors game designed to play against the computer (random moves) on your terminal.
I’ve always had a wide range of interests, which is one of the reasons I’m grateful to be part of the Arts & Science Faculty at UofT. It’s let me to explore various subjects outside of computer science through courses I genuinely chose out of curiosity 🧩.
Here I’m showcasing selected projects, ideas, and work that came out of those courses.
Analyzing the living, health, and healthcare conditions for residents of of the Kennedy Park neighbourhood in Toronto.
Collab with a grad student doing neuroscience research to translate their work into an accessible format for high school students.
