This week, I spent most of my time trying to refine our project’s scope to ensure I would be contributing a reasonable amount. After discussing internally as a team on 2\/15, we initially revisited the idea of using RFIDs. Because I have taken 18330, I considered implementing cryptography between the RFID tags and readers. I spent most of 2\/15 and 2\/16 doing research on the feasibility and effectiveness of encrypting communication between tags and readers. After our meeting on 2\/17, we decided as a group to focus more on image processing and using the camera for computer vision. Hence, I realized my best contribution would be in training our ML model, experimenting with various models and hyperparameters for the best results, and developing the web app for visual display. I created and updated our proposal presentation slide deck with our recent design changes, and I plan to spend the rest of today making more updates. So far, I am right on schedule. Next week, I hope to dive into further research over the best ML models to utilize and which resources\/tools I’ll use for the web application. This will help in creating the design review presentation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
