Toxic Comment Classification Project, Brandon Solon

Symposium of Student Scholars

The digital landscape has blossomed thanks to the surge of online platforms, boosting the variety and volume of user-created content. But it's not without its shadows; cyberbullying and hate speech have also proliferated, making web spaces less safe. At our project centerstage, we work on creating a machine learning model skilled at spotting toxic comments with precision - this way contributing towards an internet society free from fear or discomfort. We put well-documented datasets to good use along with careful preprocessing maneuvers while trialing diverse machina-learning protocols as part of constructing solid classification architecture for usages beyond current limitations within …

Modeling Traffic At An Intersection, Kaleigh L. Mulkey, Saniita K. Fasenntao

Symposium of Student Scholars

The main purpose of this project is to build a mathematical model for traffic at a busy intersection. We use elements of Queueing Theory to build our model: the vehicles driving into the intersection are the “arrival process” and the stop light in the intersection is the “server.”

We collected traffic data on the number of vehicles arriving to the intersection, the duration of green and red lights, and the number of vehicles going through the intersection during a green light. We built a SAS macro code to simulate traffic based on parameters derived from the data.

In our program …
