Fuzzy Signature Builder
Project Code: CECS_78
This project is available at the following levels:
CS single semester, Engn4200, Engn R&D, Honours, Summer Scholar, Masters
Supervisors:
Professor Tom GedeonDr Sumudu Mendis
Outline:
The fuzzy signature concept has been enhanced and popularized by the iHCC research group at the SoCS in ANU. Fuzzy signature concept is a non-traditional computational intelligence approach to solve complex structured data problems. It has been successfully applied in medical diagnosis, communication in cooperative robots, cognitive modeling, intelligent data analysis, human eye gaze path analysis to predict their cognition, etc. This project involves working with a sub group of iHCC research group on developing an automated fuzzy signature builder. This involves developing a front end GUI to input manual fuzzy signatures and use genetic programming toolbox (Matlab) to automated generation of fuzzy signatures into the existing fuzzy signature inference engine (Matlab). In overall this project need research and development in interfacing Matlab programs with Java or any other multi-platform software, computational intelligence topic of genetic programming, and HCI
Goals of this project
The goals of this project is to develop a multi-platform software package, which embedded Matlab's powerful technical computing ability, for fuzzy signatures
Requirements/Prerequisites
Enthusiasms for research and development in computational intelligence topics, and solving new and in depth issues in programming
Student Gain
The student will get benefits to interact with one of school's highly publishing research team. In addition, this is a application oriented research that benefit you to enhance your software engineering, HCI, and mathematics skills.
