AI Ballet Instruction
AI in combination with the fine arts can produce unique and interesting innovations. This student trained her AI to understand and teach ballet to students. This is a great option for many aspiring students who may not find ballet lessons accessible or affordable. This research project included innovative uses of AI to analyze video, followed by classification techniques to assess the quality of dance moves. The solution is capable of analyzing dance moves and recommending corrections for correct execution and physical safety.
Awards
1. Research paper accepted to the 21st IEEE International Conference on Machine Learning Applications - Special Session on Education (2022). The research will be published in the conference proceedings and presented live to workshop attendees.
Alzheimer's is one of the top 10 causes of death in the United States and is currently incurable. This student created an app that allows for a user to insert an MRI image, and the AI will predict the risk of Alzheimer's from Low to High risk. This AI helps with the diagnosis of Alzheimer's at an earlier stage, thereby allowing patients to try different treatment options and encouraging a more positive patient outcome.
Awards
1. Synopsys Science and Technology Championship (Santa Clara Valley Engineering Fair Association) - Special Award from the Army and Navy Corps - 2021
2. Research paper published at SPIE Workshop on Machine Learning 2022. Paper was presented live to conference attendees and appears in the SPIE 2022 Conference Proceedings.

Learn about your mentors and instructors
I cannot say enough about the AI Club and Ms. Nisha as a mentor. As parents we have been looking for what will spark our middle school son’s passion and interest. Within 6 months of being part of the AI Club, our son’s spark for AI and science blossomed. He went on to win first place and a special award for Symposium and now qualified for national and other selective science programs.
