Students work in teams of four, and each team is matched with an active research project in the department. Students learn about research in computer science and then propose and carry out an independent research project over the course of an academic year.

Using different machine learning techniques to distinguish obese from lean individuals. The key feature they are using is gut microbiota, which has been shown to be an important factor in determining the success of bariatric surgery.
They are working on mapping abnormal air quality changes, specifically on obstacle detection and modeling air quality. For this purpose, they are testing different sensors to measure accuracy and ensure robustness. They are also working on choosing subgroups of sensors that can accurately predict the values of the other sensors to model air quality efficiently.
Working on text-to-speech conversion for one of Prof. Kahng’s classes. Their work involves synthesizing speech based on the text given, and the sound files of the speaker.
