Using Aviris And Machine Learning To Map And Discriminate Bull Kelp And Giant Kelp Along The Pacific Coast Of The United States, Tanner Thompson, Dr. Ryan Jensen

Journal of Undergraduate Research

Kelp forests provide food and shelter for many organisms, and they are an important part of coastal ecosystems throughout the world. Along the Pacific coast of the United States, kelp forests are made up of two species of kelp: bull kelp (Nereocystis Leutkana) and giant kelp (Macrocystis Pyrifera). While similar, these two species are physiologically and structurally different.


Machine Learning With Scattering Transforms, Jacob Hansen, Gus Hart Jun 2017

Machine Learning With Scattering Transforms, Jacob Hansen, Gus Hart

Journal of Undergraduate Research

Our goal was to implement scattering transforms as a mathematical representation of materials. The intention of this project was to build intuition on this technique using model data in one and two dimensions. The tools created here will be used as templates in further projects on real materials data. The intuition built during this project is crucial to the machine learning framework for materials design that we hope to build in the near future.
