CLASS PROJECTS

Sumerian Named Entity Recognition September 2013 – Present

Technology Used: Python, Java, and Bash Script

The Sumerian Named Entity Recognition is a project for a historian professor at Western Washington University. Since

Sumerian tablets from 4,000 years ago contain some ambiguities on name recognition and the traditional method is

manually checking each tablet by human, it will be more efficient if there exists an automated Sumerian name

recognizer. Lack of knowledge about Sumerian leads us to try unsupervised machine learning approach.

• Modify an unsupervised learning method originally for English appositive recognition to recognize personal names

from Sumerian transliterations

• Create an automated system to handle with different situations, presenting solutions based on available resource

• Run profiling script and analyze execution report to further optimize automated system

Visual Guide: Computer Science Department Inquiry System February 2014 – March 2014

Technology Used: Python, Java, HTK, SRILM, and Bash Script

The Course Inquiry System project is for Computer Science Department. It provides basic information about Computer

Science Department, including professor contact, course schedule, and research fields. It is the first time to apply

speech processing knowledge on a practical project and everything started from scratch.

• Conducted feasibility review of inquiry system, creating a list of major features

• Negotiated with other groups like Grammar Development and Speech Synthetics to get high quality input & output

• Trained language models with different methods and analyzed results to find an optimization for final result

Blackjack Online February 2013 – March 2013

Technology Used: Python

The Blackjack Online Game project is creating a server-client socket based game by utilizing the knowledge learned

from networking class. Each server should host Blackjack games for other clients in class and each client should be

running on other servers correctly.

• Planed Blackjack project and allocated time budget for each phase like design, program and test phase

• Set up automaton to illustrate Blackjack game process as well as other functionalities like chatting room

• Handled with situations such as receiving broken messages, unexpected player quitting or other exception

• Added extra AI for client-end with some game strategies based on research
