Red Beetl: Recipe Encoder Decoder Beer Translator Lstm, Grace Ermi, Ellyn Ayton
Graduate Student Symposium
The number of craft breweries has exploded in last decade: there are around a dozen breweries in Bellingham alone. Each brewery must assemble a lineup of beers, but this process of designing new beers usually relies on some combination of brewer instinct and trial and error. Because brewing beer involves complicated biological and chemical processes, the mapping from recipe to the beer it will produce is non-trivial to predict. In this project, we consider mapping between representations of beer in three distinct domains. In one view, a beer can be described by a recipe, which specifies the particular hop, malt …
Recognition, Internalization, Growth: Intuitive Design For Archival Representation, Jaime L. Ganzel
Recognition, Internalization, Growth: Intuitive Design For Archival Representation, Jaime L. Ganzel
Graduate Student Symposium
Although there is a pressing need for archival description and access systems to be more intuitive and user-friendly, the uniqueness of archival records presents significant barriers to establishing simplistic and standardized conventions for the representation of archival materials. Indecipherable finding aids and access tools prevent new and inexperienced researchers from accessing the unique information and documentation held in archives. This article aims to help open the archival record to new and non-traditional archival users, support individual development of archival literacy skills, and cultivate a greater level of archival awareness in our society by developing a usable model for archivists to …

Unsupervised Machine Learning In Agent-Based Modeling, Luke D. Robinson
Celebration of Learning
Agent-based models (ABMs) are used by researchers in a variety of fields to model natural phenomena. In an ABM, a wide range of behaviors and outcomes can be observed based on the parameters of the model. In many cases, these behaviors can be categorized into discrete outcomes identifiable by human observers. Our goal was to use clustering algorithms to identify those outcomes from model output data. For this project, we used data from the NetLogo Wolf Sheep Predation model to explore and evaluate three clustering algorithms from Python's scikit-learn package. If this task can be completed reliably by a computer, …

Migrating Behavior Search’S User Interface From Swing To Javafx, An Nguyen Dang
Celebration of Learning
Agent-based models (ABMs) is a genre of computer modeling that simulates actions and interactions between individual entities (agents). ABM is widely used to simulate behavior in many fields, including biology, ecology, chemistry, physics, economics, and social science. NetLogo is a well-known agent-based programming language that provides a powerful platform to build and examine ABMs. However, to fully analyze a model one must run the model many times with different parameters, which can be a very daunting task. Therefore, Dr. Forrest Stonedahl developed BehaviorSearch, a software tool to help with automating the exploration of ABMs. The software interfaces with the NetLogo …

Investigating Trust And Trust Recovery In Human-Robot Interactions, Abigail L. Thomson
Celebration of Learning
As artificial intelligence and robotics continue to advance and be used in increasingly different functions and situations, it is important to look at how these new technologies will be used. An important factor in how a new resource will be used is how much it is trusted. This experiment was conducted to examine people’s trust in a robotic assistant when completing a task, how mistakes affect this trust, and if the levels of trust exhibited with a robot assistant were significantly different than if the assistant were human. The task was to watch a computer simulation of the three-cup monte …

Mapping Community Space And Place In Mto Wa Mbu, Tanzania Through Surveys And Gis, Jessica Craigg
Georgia College Student Research Events
Cities throughout the African continent have been developing at an unprecedented pace, many of them due to the influence of the tourism industry. This is particularly true in Tanzania, a country famous for its national parks and their draw to tourists who help provide money for development. However, the only way to get the whole story on how to spend this money is through the experiences and needs of the people themselves. This study focuses on a small town in northeastern Tanzania, Mto wa Mbu, situated near Lake Manyara National Park, and its people’s perceptions of the park and community. …
Does Logic Help Us Beat Monty Hall?, Adam J. Hammett, Nathan A. Harold, Tucker R. Rhodes
Does Logic Help Us Beat Monty Hall?, Adam J. Hammett, Nathan A. Harold, Tucker R. Rhodes
The Research and Scholarship Symposium (2013-2019)
The classical Monty Hall problem entails that a hypothetical game show contestant be presented three doors and told that behind one door is a car and behind the other two are far less appealing prizes, like goats. The contestant then picks a door, and the host (Monty) is to open a different door which contains one of the bad prizes. At this point in the game, the contestant is given the option of keeping the door she chose or changing her selection to the remaining door (since one has already been opened by Monty), after which Monty opens the chosen …

Granting Personhood For Sentient Non-Human Animals And Sentient Artificial Intelligences: A Demonstrative Argument, Jeremiah Meadows
Granting Personhood For Sentient Non-Human Animals And Sentient Artificial Intelligences: A Demonstrative Argument, Jeremiah Meadows
Virginias Collegiate Honors Council Conference
While the subject of personhood has been exhaustively debated regarding the unborn, personhood for sentient animals and artificial intelligences is a concept that is rarely deliberated. Humanity has learned that there are multiple animal species which are very similar to humans in their self-awareness, emotional capacity, and free will. These traits have been partially developed for artificial intelligences as well, and those characteristics will evolve alongside human and technological development. As stratified societies emerged, there have been multiple occurrences where individuals were deemed lesser but then later acquired equal standing. Dr. Daniel Wilson, roboticist, wrote in his novel Robopocalypse, “It …

The Chess Puzzle Lock Screen
Many times each day, owners of cellphones use their phone’s lock screen in order to access their device. The goal of this project has been to take advantage of the action of unlocking one’s device by incorporating an element of self-help into the process. Every time a user who is interested in learning a new field attempts to access their device, that user is faced with a problem pertaining to a subject they are interested in learning more about. After many repetitions of this scenario, the user will have increased their understanding of this field. …

Virtual Reality: Google Cardboard And Unity, Emma Elliott
Student Scholar Showcase
Virtual Reality is currently the hottest way for people to play video games because it provides an immersive and interactive world to explore. It uses computer software to create sounds, realistic images, and other effects to simulate a virtual setting. The current craze started on the Oculus Rift headset and has incited other companies to make their own, but most are expensive or require another system to play. Instead of buying an expensive headset, anyone with a smartphone can play in Virtual Reality with Google’s cheap alternative, the Google Cardboard. The goal of this project is to complete a prototype …
Differences In Use Of Metaphor Between Narrative And Non-Narrative Texts, Armando J. Ochoa
Differences In Use Of Metaphor Between Narrative And Non-Narrative Texts, Armando J. Ochoa
Undergraduate Research at FIU (URFIU) Conference
Metaphors are widespread in human language and are used in all types of text. One of the most common text types are narratives, which share a number of unique structural traits which distinguish them from non-narrative types. We investigate if there is any difference in the use of metaphor between narrative and non-narrative texts. We first created a Java API to interface with the Vienna University Annotated Metaphor Corpus (VUAMC), which provides four different types of text (three non-narrative and one narrative) with word-by-word annotations of metaphor occurrences. We then contrasted narrative and non-narrative texts by calculating several similarity measures, …
A Review Of Data Repositories For The Long Tail Of Computer Science, Pachev Joseph
A Review Of Data Repositories For The Long Tail Of Computer Science, Pachev Joseph
Undergraduate Research at FIU (URFIU) Conference
Computer scientists undertaking research often find themselves struggling to find or generate the right data to formulate or test hypotheses, validate models, or test algorithms – which in turn leads to greater time and effort allocated to searching for or producing data, rather than using it to perform scientific research. This data barrier is a significant impediment to scientific progress, because most of the progress occurs in the long tail of computer science: in many smaller, silo-like laboratories that rarely share data. This paper surveys nineteen existing data repositories based on their respective feature sets. Out of the nineteen reviewed …

Designing Novel Nanostructured Permanent Magnets, Ali Al Kadhim
UNO Student Research and Creative Activity Fair
Rare earth element based alloys have been the source of high performance magnetic alloys, and have played a paramount role in the development of various technologies, including: memory devices (such as credit cards, random-access memory), sensors, and various biomedical applications. However, there is a tremendous need to replace rare earth metals with material with powerful magnetic properties. Our group recently found CrTe-based materials that show very promising magnetic properties in nanostructured form. The magnetic modeling of such material in nanostructured form prior to their fabrication demonstrates their magnetic properties in bulk form. In this project, we investigate the behavior of …
Vision-Based Mobile Robotic Platform For Autonomous Landing Of Quadcopters, Timothy R. Joe
Vision-Based Mobile Robotic Platform For Autonomous Landing Of Quadcopters, Timothy R. Joe
UNO Student Research and Creative Activity Fair
This project deals with the development of a vision-based control algorithm to assist quadcopters in the landing process. For demonstration purposes, the approach has been implemented in a mobile robotic platform (turtlebot). In this project, the objective is to use the mobile robot as a landing platform. The camera on-board the mobile robot detects the quadcopter (AprilTag attached to the flying robot) and keeps track of it. Based on this idea, the proposed approach estimates in real-time the landing zone. Once this zone is calculated, the mobile robot moves towards this area, stops under the quadcopter, and acts as a …

Passive Chemical Detection System For Uavs, John Hare 2185222
UNO Student Research and Creative Activity Fair
In this project we address the problem of autonomously detecting airborne gas particles using gas sensors that are mobilized using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The main hypothesis we investigate is whether a commercially available, off-the-shelf gas sensor can be suitably integrated on a UAV platform to detect ambient gas particles. The main challenges in this problem include addressing the weight constraints of the UAV’s payload and registering a consistent reading on the gas sensor in the presence of the turbulence in the air caused by the UAV’s rotors. To verify our hypothesis, we designed a passive funneling mechanism for airborne …
