Welcome to Earlham CS Senior Capstone Experience.

I have finished buying the parts to make the headset and i have finished setting up a unity environment, but haven’t been able to run tests there yet.

This week I tackled simple branching. I have gotten it to the point where it is fully functional but limited in content. At some point during the process, the algorithm will place a specified branch segment, It will then create … Read More

I have read some literature on all three of my ideas, and was pleasantly surprised to see that there was a lot of academic research potential in the ideas that I thought were a little dry in research, which was … Read More

Idea #1Name of Your Project Computational complexity of the ‘Park Puzzle’What research topic/question your project is going to address? The Park Puzzle is a game that involves splitting a n*n grid into different colored continuous ‘parks’. A solution to a … Read More

Idea: Breakdown of Mathematical Proofs Using Natural Language Processing I wish to use natural language processing to break down a bachelor-level mathematical proof into the components that make up a proof (e.g. given knowledge, statements, calculations). This will be shown … Read More

For this week, I read the papers on Moodle, met with Charlie to discuss my ideas, and read papers related to them. Below are some updates for each topic. Idea 1 Title: Improve Fire Identification Mapping and Monitoring Algorithm (FIMMA) … Read More

I further developed my ideas and added more details to each of them. Then I talked to Xunfei about modifications and got more suggestions from her. We looked through the research paper I found on Google Scholars together and searched … Read More

As suggested by Charlie, I chose a new direction for my third idea:Name of Your Project? Geosocial Weight AlgorithmWhat research topic/question your project is going to address? Lots of social networks, including, for example, one that I created with my classmates … Read More

For this week, I updated my 3 proposal ideas and met with Charlie to review and seek his advice. Prior to this meeting, I found my 5 articles for each and used these discuss potential problems if each idea was … Read More

I spoke with Xunfei regarding the three ideas. Currently, I am reading through similar papers and figuring out which idea I will finalize. I have selected the papers for the next assignment and going through the first pass for the … Read More

My first idea is to create an application that scans the picture of foods and let users know what ingredients are in the dish. I am still deciding whether I want my app to be used as a diet and … Read More

Thought a lot about how I am going to handle simple branching, currently looking into a version that would just at some point split the level and after the split, here will be a branch that only goes right and … Read More

Idea 1 My first idea stays the same, making an online food ordering system that works over wifi. I need to think about how to differentiate my product, what is new with this, and how to test it. Idea 2 … Read More

Idea 1 Name of Your Project? Corner Finder AI What research topic/question your project is going to address? Can deep learning and/or neural networks be used over a set of imagery to identify rectilinear structures which might be undetectable to … Read More

My first idea stays the same. Some items Xunfei helped me consider is what questions administrators would be prompted to answer, and how to moderate student answers for reliability. My second idea is to build a simulation of Earlham’s energy … Read More

Idea 1: Joseph Moore Museum Guided Tour This project is an attempt at expanding the accessibility of the Joseph Moore Museum, especially to patrons whose first language is not English. The project is to create an app which will scan … Read More
