The main problem with using Linux software in the science and Bioinformatics community is because Linux has a large number of distributions and dependencies. This hinders researches and science students with the problem of tracking down dependencies for software which could then further break the existing system dependencies. Our team looked to solve these problems by creating a BASH script that could quickly mass package AppImages and contain Linux software with all dependencies. Our team worked through the last ten weeks and researched all components of AppImage and discovered all means to more easily package and have a repeatable process …

We are developing a web app to recognize and rate political bias in online journalism using artificial intelligence. All human writing inherently contains bias ,however bias is less harmful if it is transparent to the reader because they can now make informed decisions about what they read. We've collected articles and and reactions to them from online sources, and then used Neural Networks trained for natural language processing to determine bias. The project can predict bias labels on a news articles with 82% accuracy.Advisors(s): Reza Meimandi Parizi - course instructor Asher Nuckolls - project ownerTopic(s): Artificial IntelligenceSWE4724

Ur-60 Video-To-Video Synthesis With Semantically Segmented Video, Aydan Mufti, Jordan S Hasty

C-Day Computing Showcase

Our project involves studying the usage of generative adversarial networks (GANs) to translate semantically segmented video to photo-realistic video in a process known as video-to-video synthesis. The model is able to learn a mapping from semantically segmented masks to real-life images which depict the corresponding semantic labels. To achieve this, we employ a conditional GAN-based learning method that produces output conditionally based on the source video to be translated. Our model is capable of synthesizing a translated video, given semantically labeled video, that resembles real video by accurately replicating low-frequency details from the source.Advisors(s): Dr. Mohammed AledhariTopic(s): Artificial IntelligenceCS 4732

Gr-1 Compare Two Off Angle Normalization, Emily Ehrlich Apr 2021

Gr-1 Compare Two Off Angle Normalization, Emily Ehrlich

C-Day Computing Showcase

This work investigates different iris normalization techniques to compare their performance including elliptical normalization and circular normalization after frontal projection of off-angle iris recognition. Elliptical normalization samples the iris texture using elliptical segmentation parameters. For circular unwrapping, we first estimate the gaze deviation using ellipse parameters and the image will be projected back to frontal view using perspective transformation. Then, we segment the transformed image and normalize using circular parameters. We further investigate if: (i) elliptical normalization or circular unwrapping recognition performance is higher, and (ii) the two segmentations methods in circular unwrapping increase the recognition efficiency. Based on the …

Gr-34 Defensive Neural Network, Hongkyu Lee

C-Day Computing Showcase

Machine learning (ML) algorithms require a massive amount of data. Firms such as Google and Facebook exploit user's data to deliver a more precise ML-based service. However, collecting users' data is a risky action because their private data can be leaked through the transmission. As a remedy, federated learning is introduced. In federated learning, a central server distributes a machine learning model to users. Each user trains the model to its data, and send the model back. Later the models are aggregated and distributed again. Federated learning is more secure in that it emancipates users from the risk of sending …

Gr-70 Defending Data Reconstruction Through Adaptive Image Augmentation, Seunghyeon Shin Apr 2021

Gr-70 Defending Data Reconstruction Through Adaptive Image Augmentation, Seunghyeon Shin

C-Day Computing Showcase

In this paper, we introduce a data augmentation-based defense strategy for preventing the reconstruction of training data through the exploitation of stolen model gradient. The collection of training data to a centralized server has been required for the training of neural networks in traditional machine learning. However, as privacy becomes a significant concern, the concept of Federated learning is introduced. In federated learning, a centralized server shares the well-trained neural network and participating end-users send the gradient back to the server after training without sharing the sensitive data itself. As the concept of federated learning does not share the original …
