I'm excited to hear that you're looking for a Python developer who can create a script to read an ASCII file containing X, Y, Z, L, and V variables.
I have the necessary skills and experience to tackle this project effectively. My expertise includes digital signal processing (MATLAB & PYTHON), image processing (Image Classification, Object Detection, Semantic Segmentation), natural language processing (question answering, sentiment classification, named entity recognition (NER) tagging), reinforcement learning (Deep Q-Network model-free and model-based training) which makes me an ideal candidate for this project.
I understand that you're require that the Z value in the file be updated according to an equation provided. Additionally, you require that the computed parameters be used for academic research purposes. If you're interested in hearing more about how I could help you with this project please don't hesitate to reach out!
