COMPUTER SCIENCE EXPERIENCE
Neuroscience App Fall 2020 – Spring 2021
Developing an app that uses essential filters and permissions using Android Studio
• Designed the user interface with Adobe XD.
• Back end was written in Java and front end in XML.
• Team oriented app project that used the Scrum Agile model life cycle.
• 2-3 week sprints were used to develop the app.
• Used Trello for team organization and to check status of the app project.
• Used GitHub as our version control system.
The app gives the option to take a picture or record live audio. Once a user chooses an option, they can then process the image or audio file the user captured to convert and filter through an ICA algorithm. Once it is done processing it then shows the results of ICA filters for images and sound waves for the audio files. The results represent receptive field filters our brain would produce if they had evolved using efficient coding algorithms. Food Menu App Summer 2020
