Parking Garage Functions, Felicia Elizabeth Flores

Senior Projects Spring 2023

Senior Project submitted to The Division of Science, Mathematics and Computing of Bard College.

This project is about a generalization of parking functions called parking garage functions. Parking functions have been well studied, but the concept of parking garage functions is new and introduced in the project. Parking garage functions are sequences that represent the parking garage level preferences of cars which lead to all cars parking on a level after a systematic placement. We found a recursive formula for the number of sequences that are a parking garage function. We also found a closed formula for a subset of …

These games usually have another group of people creating the artwork. In this project, I coded and designed a video game from scratch, as well as created all the artwork used in the game. The player controls a mouse character who fights a variety of monsters. In order to create the complexity of the game, I implement basic neural networks as the enemy artificial intelligence, i.e. the decision making process of the enemy. It …
