CS 485G Applied Machine Learning

In this course, students will learn t​he fundamentals of machine learning (ML) to prepare for a role at the intersection of data science, computer science, and the individual student’s field of study or interest. Students will become familiar with d​ifferent M​L tools and models, develop skills to assess when ML is the right solution to a given problem, learn how to prepare and identify issues with data, and hone their coding skills in Python. In addition, students will dive into deep learning, clustering, k-Means, and other models and algorithms. Students will then work on group based projects and integrate their learning from the course to solve a particular problem or meet a specific need. Students integrate technical concepts, project management, organizational skills, and ethical considerations to create a meaningful final product. Culminating the gathered knowledge is beneficial as data science employers look to see projects applicants have undertaken, the skills they built while working on them, and what they learned from the experience. The final project provides students with a meaningful work-like experience to discuss in interviews.

CS 685 Special Topics in Designing Applications for Medical Research

This course addresses topics related to designing medical based systems for patients, physicians, and engineers. There are many types of data produced in such systems, patient objective sensor data, subjective information, etc. Even though many problems have been addressed, there are still a number of problems that need to be explored and solved that require the intersection of medicine and computer science. We discuss the technical aspects and best practices for building medical based systems applications; specifically front-end mobile applications, backend databases, UI-design, anonymizing datasets, fast healthcare interoperability resources (FHIR), interaction with electronic health records, and HIPAA compliance.

CS 685 Special Topics in Opportunistic Wireless Communications

Wireless communications allows information to be accessed and produced anytime, anywhere providing on-the-fly infrastructure for wireless sensor networks (WSNs), the Internet of Things (IoT), and Smart Cities. The need for information flow which can operate independently or supplement centralized cloud communication (Internet) is a requirement during natural disasters and can provide critical information in rural and developing communities. This course will expose students to advanced topics in routing protocols for opportunistic wireless communication using delay tolerant networks (DTNs), mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs), and vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs). Specifically, students will learn and develop deterministic and stochastic routing protocols for unicast and multicast opportunistic communication. In addition, students will learn how users mobility, network density, and interactions influence data dissemination in opportunistic wireless communication. Students will learn about routing through extensive literature reviews, software development in Java using the ONE Simulator, and analyzing data using Python Jupyter Notebooks.
