Today was my first day participating in the summer internship program for high school students at the RIT Imaging Center. The morning was spent completing the necessary in-processing such as setting up my computer account, id, and parking permit. After we completed this, the next four hours was spent on a team building exercise consisting of a scavenger hunt all around campus. We created a final video product to present to three judges, and although we didn't achieve as many points as we had hoped, the experience was a lot of fun and a great way to get to know the other interns. Finally, the rest of the day was spent talking with our research lab mentors. I was introduced to the different topics of material I will spend the rest of this week learning including Linear Algebra, Numpy, Computer Vision, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Neural Networks. Establishing a solid foundation around these topics will allow me to complete valuable research in the lab in the future. Overall, today was a very exciting introduction to the program, and I'm looking forward to the rest of the summer!
Most of today was also spent practicing and editing my presentation to make it as professional as I can. I'm really looking forward to the opportunity to present my work to faculty and friends tomorrow. Here is a link to the slides for my final presentation: Novelty Detection in Streaming Learning using Neural Networks
