Hello all,
I am Haripriya Mehta, an MIT alum, co-founder of MehtA+https://mehtaplustutoring.com/, based in the US and head instructor of AI/Machine Learning Research bootcamp.
For the past several summers, we have successfully taught 75+ high school students, who have applied advanced AI/machine learning techniques to the digital humanities and the sciences, completing projects independently and with universities such as Northeastern Universityhttps://wwp.northeastern.edu/blog/machine-learning/, Williams College, Singapore Institute of Technology and University of Bologna, Italy.
Examples of past projectshttps://github.com/MehtaPlusTutoring/studentprojects/tree/main/aimlresearchbootcamp include improving upon a Greek lemmatizer, building a better search function for an art museum, dating an Italian philosopher's texts using handwriting recognition, classifying whether a patient has melanoma using images of skin lesions, charting the evolution of the word "que" in the Spanish language and determining the author of disputed Federalist papers.
For this upcoming summer, we are looking to partner up with scholars (professors/PhD students/postdocs) in the humanities/sciences/engineering in need of help in applying AI techniques to their work. Our staff will mentor students on computational aspects of the project, and the scholar will volunteer their time to provide datasets and domain knowledge that will help students work on the project. Expected time commitment would be ~2-4 hours during the summer. Projects that are of a predictive/classification nature, and that may involve natural language processing or image recognition are ideal for this camp.
If there are other computational projects (app development/web development, etc.) that you would like our students' help with or if you are unsure if AI/machine learning techniques that we teach in our camp will be applicable to your work, please still feel free to reach out! Our students have created a mobile app for an educational startup, an educational website for a kidney transplant surgeon and a data visualization for the University of Buffalo SUNY's Marianne Moore Digital Archive.
If you know anyone who would be interested in such a collaboration, please feel free to forward this email.
I would be happy to hop on a Zoom call with you if you would like to discuss this more.
Thanks.
Sincerely,
Haripriya Mehta
Co-founder of MehtA+
