This project will investigate the application of state-of-the-art techniques from the fields of Artificial Intelligence and Statistics to the development of tools to predict the demand for journeys from a diverse set of data. The utility and … Read more
I will not be offering projects for 2023/24. If you have been allocated to me, please revert to your course director for guidance. thanks,Stephen.
Reassembly of archeological artifact fragments requires considerable time and manual effort for researchers along with a necessity to handle potentially fragile material. It would therefore be advantageous for this process to be automatic. In this project we will work on creating a method for matching 3D scans of ancient animal bone fragments in order to … Read more
Tense and aspect are important considerations for temporal reasoning in natural language processing (Jurafsky and Martin 2023, chapter 22). The entry for tense and aspect in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy provides a useful overview of the subject, ranging over reference points, Aktionsart and inertia. The aim of this project is to encode these ideas … Read more
Big data is being collected almost everywhere: weather data, especially for airline transportation, can be collected every microsecond or even less as there reliable and cheap hardware technology to do so. You might have heard of algorithmic trading where computers trade against each other, of facilitate humans to do so, by generating data every microsecond … Read more
All future technologies will rely more than ever before on energy, telecommunications, and transportation networks. Smart meters provide greater control of energy usage by customers but at the same time makes the whole energy supply network vulnerable to attacks by false data injection via smart meters. Diversity of energy sources, wind, solar, waves, optical reflectors, … Read more
Prices of company shares, national currencies, and commodities change suddenly usually on the whim of people who buy and sell shares or currencies or commodities. This leads traders to buy when they should sell, and to sell when they should buy – the whim or the sentiment of single trader can create a boom or … Read more
Emotions are very subjective and scholars find it difficult to classify the range of emotions displayed by humans (and animals). Not only do we show emotions but equally well detect emotions of others. This production and detection of emotions happiness, sadness, joyousness, anger, disgust, fear, and surprise, helps us to function intelligently in this world. … Read more
Final Year Project. Shared mobility has experienced significant growth in recent years and has the potential to reduce the climate impact of transportation through a more efficient use of resources in terms of vehicle utilisation, road space and energy. On-demand services have been offered for a wide range of vehicles including cars, vans, bicycles, electric … Read more
