IPHS 300: Artificial Intelligence for the Humanities: Text, Image, and Sound

This project lays the groundwork for studying how sentiment changes as information is selectively converted from (a) text to imagery and then from (b) image/text to interpretation. The first process is guided by Artificial Intelligence embedded within Natural Language Processing while the second processes a product of human intelligence and interpretation.


Leed Certification Prediction With K-Means Clustering Algorithm, Jack Chase Oct 2018

Leed Certification Prediction With K-Means Clustering Algorithm, Jack Chase

IPHS 300: Artificial Intelligence for the Humanities: Text, Image, and Sound

This project uses a K-Means Clustering algorithm. K-Means Clustering is a method of vector quantization, originally from signal processing that is popular for cluster analysis in data mining. K-Means Clustering aims to partition n observations into kclusters in which each observation belongs to the cluster with the nearest mean, serving as a prototype of the cluster. The example above has three clusters, and my project used four clusters, one for each LEED Certification. I

IPHS 300: Artificial Intelligence for the Humanities: Text, Image, and Sound

Computers have been extremely useful in humanity’s quest for knowledge, performing calculations and other strenuous tasks in seconds. For a computer to perform the tasks, it requires a specific set of instructions, or code, to tell it what to do. These series of commands and instructions are strict, in that any syntactic error results in faulty, or zero functionality. Human language is very much unlike that of a computer, in that it can be grammatically incorrect, irregular, or even incomplete, yet another human may still get the point and understand the information being exchanged. A significant part about what makes …

Deep Reinforcement Learning In Trading Algorithms, Tucker Bennett, Delaney Ambrosen, Joe Woody, Simon Fruth Oct 2018

Deep Reinforcement Learning In Trading Algorithms, Tucker Bennett, Delaney Ambrosen, Joe Woody, Simon Fruth

IPHS 300: Artificial Intelligence for the Humanities: Text, Image, and Sound

An algorithm that can learn an optimal policy to execute trade profitable is any market participant’s dream. In the project, we propose an algorithm that does just that: a Deep Reinforcement Learning trading algorithm. We design our algorithm by tuning the reward function to our specified constraints, taking into account unrealized Profits and Losses (PnL), Sharpe ratio, profits, and transaction costs. Additionally, we use a short 5-month moving average replay memory in order to ensure our algorithm is basing its decision on the most pertinent information. We combine the aforementioned concepts to make a theoretical Deep Reinforcement Learning trading algorithm.

Rnn Monophonic Sheet Music Generation With Lilypond, Seth Colbert-Pollack Oct 2018

Rnn Monophonic Sheet Music Generation With Lilypond, Seth Colbert-Pollack

IPHS 300: Artificial Intelligence for the Humanities: Text, Image, and Sound

Computers are well suited to tasks such as data categorization and labeling. More challenging is data “generation”, a problem in which recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and more specifically long short-term memory networks (LSTMs) have made significant progress in the past few years. In this project, I train an RNN on a database of classical sheet music, and use it to generate new sheet music.

Archiving Oral Histories: A Practical Guide For Practitioners And Their Collaborators, Jenna E. Nolt Jan 2018

Archiving Oral Histories: A Practical Guide For Practitioners And Their Collaborators, Jenna E. Nolt

Instructions, Forms, and Toolkits

This guide takes a technical approach to educating practitioners (faculty, students, local historians) about the collection, processing, hosting, access, and preservation of oral histories. These technical processes are a critical component to an oral history project because they provide the means to project, share, and distribute the important work narrators and interviewers do. Therefore this guide works in conjunction with other professional guides that emphasize the development of historically significant research questions, and the ethical and legal considerations of the project as a whole. A earlier version of this document was initially created for the Oral History in the Liberal …
