The objective: As artificial intelligence continues to improve,
artificial neural networks (ANN) are on the cutting edge. An ANN simulates a
biological neural network using a mathematical model. The network consists of
interconnected neurons. The problem with ANNs is that while they are able to
find patterns in a set of data, they need a set of data to be trained on before
they are useful. In the real world the data is not always available. The goal
was to design a program that would be able to create a set of data for the
network to be trained on by making mistakes and using them as experiences.
Methods/Materials
The platform used consists of a simple tank-style
chassis, ultra-sonic distance sensor, accelerometer, and control electronics.
The code is run on a Gumstix Verdex XL6P Pro which is an embedded Linux
computer. It was chosen as it has enough power to run the code in real time.
Results
When the robot is first powered on it only knows how
to drive forward. After a few short minutes of driving, crashing, and learning,
it is apparent that the robot has learned to navigate around walls and other
obstacles. During some sessions the robot performs better than others, it just
depends on what solutions it finds and in what order. However, overall the
robot performs very well.
Conclusions/Discussion
As these results indicate, this approach for training
and running artificial neural networks shows potential in applications where
human-like behavior is desired, such as in video game's AI. This method seems
to be only limited by the ability to detect failures and to determine what
should have happened.
This project is to explore a method for adding
human-like learning to robots.
Project Idea No. 2: Virtual Office Management
Abstract
This system is designed for performing various
activities in an organization such as maintaining employees where about's,
bulletin board, reservation facility for training and meeting rooms.
Virtual Office Management displays employee details
with timestamp for each group ,bulletin board for realizing higher productivity
and more convenience, facility reservation for making and confirming
reservation of meeting and training for company /group ,customizable holiday
settings ,task management system for individual and group for co-ordinalizing
and managing the task of all members with different options including deadline,
priority for each to do item and online e-forum allowing everyone to join
anywhere over the intranet. Virtual Office Management is using JSP(Java Server
Pages) as the server side scripting language, JavaScript for client side data
validations, HTML for data display and MS Access as the database to store the
various information such as employee information ,reservation information etc.
Project Idea No. 3: SMS Based Student Intimation
Abstract
This Project deals with development of education
services based on Short Message Service (SMS). Here the student is intimated
about any information /notification through SMS. He can also know his test
scores, enrollment information etc. by this service.
The university as a educational organization has a lot
of valuable information which can be provided to the students, such as release
of results/Test-Scores, Enrollment information, University notifications,
Internship opportunity and Parent alerts. Etc. by sending an SMS. This reduces
the manual work to much extent. Here SMS can be sent in a group by the college
or a single student. The student can also use the service but he has to pay
some amount for utilizing this. Authenticated student is only allowed to make
use of this service.
Modules:
Module 1:
In this module students will create their account and
then register any course and once the account is created he will be
authenticated to view the services provided by the University.
Module 2:
In this module the University provides a lot of
valuable information to the students, such as:
1) Results/Test-Scores.
2) Enrollment information.
3) University notifications.
4) Internship opportunity and
5) Parent alerts. etc.
Module 3:
This Module has the facility of sending SMS only to a
single student or group of students depending upon the requirement. If any
notification has to be sent by the university to the students then it can be
sent in a group form.
Module 4:
In this module the student request for any particular
service then the SMS server replies to only that particular student. With this
students can get the information more easily and faster. To use this service
student has to pay to the university through the website.
SMS server will check the ID and password and compare
to the student database. If the ID and password are correct, server will check
user's balance. If there is enough balance, server will check the answer based
on user's request. The answer will be sent to the user and the user's balance
will be deducted
Proposed System:
Objectives of the Proposed System
To generate the quick reports
To make
accuracy and efficient calculations
To provide
proper information briefly
To provide
data security
To provide
huge maintenance of records
Flexibility
of transactions can be completed in time
After understanding the existing system and
understanding the need for developing a new system different people involved in
the related activities have been consulted. The data needed for the study has
been collected from company records.
The computerization of this system would avoid the
wrong interpretation and bad calculation of data .The system help the user to
see any documents, source code, tasks, activities, team information with
details at the click of a button. The record data is maintained and backed up
such a way that data is not loss. The speed of the system could also increased.

Project Idea No. 4: Medical Image Compression
Abstract
Image Compression is a process that involves transform
a image from one form to another form. compression is used to minimize the size
of image. Medical images are stored to study the case history of the patient.
They take large disk space for the management to store. By the method of
"Medical image compression" we reduce the disc space used by medical
images ,without loss of information.
Image is decomposed into Spatial Orientation Tree
(SOT) by using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) transformation and applied Set
Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) algorithm to compress the image. The
compressed image is stored as a file with extension of .cmp The compressed file
is de-compressed into Inverse Discrete Wavelet Transform (I-DWT) forms and
saved as BITMAP image, by applying vector encoding technique.

Project Idea No. 5: Enterprise Security Services
Abstract
Verification and Validation is a part of S/W Quality
Assurance. Verification refers to the set of activities that ensure correctly
implements a specific function. Validation refers to a different set of
activities that ensure that the software that has been built is traceable to
customer requirements.
Verification:" Are we building the product right"
Validation: "Are we building the right product"
The project entitled Independent Project Metrics is an
effort, to develop a tool to manage the Verification and Validation process.
The specific purpose of the Independent Verification
and Validation Process o f Project Metrics Tool is to bring out the various
Verification and validation tasks to be performed. The scope of the Project
Metrics is to cover the developed for system.
The goals of the V&V effort is to ensure that the
software and the documents are developed are of high quality as expected from
any mission critical software. This project generates the plan for Verification
and validation process. This project maintain the document names, source code
module names, version number, released date, receiving date size of document
and source code modules of receiving projects for Verification and validation.
Using this application we assign the tasks/activities
to different persons and also calculate the expected efforts and actual
efforts. The V&V co-coordinator does this work. This application is used
