Malcolm’s Status Report for 10/17/20

This week I spent time working on our report document, learning about AWS services and how we can potentially host a website through there rather than building a Django web-app, and continuing work on finding and using the publicly available datasets. One of the pieces of feedback we picked up on during the design reviews was using AWS to host a website rather that writing a web-app from scratch. Since our project focuses most heavily on the machine learning and signal processing portions of our solution, we believe it is still within scope to use AWS to host a webpage. And since we are using their services to train the neural network, it will be much easier to pipe our results to the website if we use AWS. Otherwise, the report document has been focused on formalizing many parts of our design as well as incorporating feedback from our design review.
