Milton Vladimir Mamani-Calisaya

Research software engineer · Quantitative science studies

Universidad Nacional del Altiplano — Puno, Perú

ORCID Python R Open Science

I write the code, the data, and the errors — all three in public.


Eleven research codebases, nearly all of them written and maintained single-handedly, across four fields. Each one ships the analysis that produced a paper's numbers: fixed seeds, pinned versions, checksummed inputs, and pipelines that stop rather than guess. Several also ship the mistakes I caught along the way — because a wrong result that looks right is the most expensive thing in empirical work, and the only defence is showing your hand.

11 codebases · 4 fields · 65,528-case benchmark · 866 textiles · 18 countries · 160 annotated abstracts


Selected work

 Silent failures in visibility analysis

**Which GIS bugs produce results that look perfectly plausible?**

A line-of-sight engine you can inject defects into, a benchmark audited by mutation analysis, and a synthetic landscape where ground truth is true by construction. NumPy only — no black boxes.

 Do models disagree like humans do?

**Not whether an LLM annotates well — whether its disagreement is distinguishable from a second human's.**

160 Spanish thesis abstracts, two independent human annotators, three open-weight models × three runs, per-variable Δκ with paired bootstrap.

human-llm-abstract-quality

 Auditing a national researcher registry

**Peru certifies and ranks its researchers. Does the ranking survive contact with OpenAlex?**

Three packages: a rung-by-rung audit of the ladder, field-level coverage, and a map of the certified and uncertified AI workforce.

renacyt-certification-ladder · renacyt-field-coverage · renacyt-openalex-ai-peru

 Matching Hispanic compound surnames

**Every record-linkage tool built for "First Last" quietly fails on "Mamani-Calisaya".**

A three-tier protocol and a 65,528-case synthetic benchmark to prove it, and to measure what it costs.

How I build

Fail loudly, never impute. A missing or malformed input stops the pipeline. No silent default, no carrying on with a hole in the data.

Every byte accounted for. A manifest records the SHA-256 of each raw input, so you can prove you are analysing what I analysed.

Decisions are configuration, not folklore. Every debatable methodological choice lives in a config file with its default documented and its alternative named.

Tested against the literature. Estimators are checked against established implementations and worked examples from published papers — not against themselves.

Licensed honestly. Code and data carry separate licences, and material I do not hold rights to is never redistributed: persistent identifiers point to the source instead.


Open to collaboration on research software, reproducibility audits, and quantitative science studies.
