Honours and Minor Thesis projects

Computational modelling of sign languages aims to develop technologies that can serve as means for understanding (i.e., recognising) and producing (i.e., generating) a particular sign language. The objective of this project is to study and contribute to the state-of-the-art in sign language segmentation.

This is a research project best for students who are independent and willing to take up challenges. It is also a good practice for students who wish to pursue further study at a postgraduate level.

Project Description:

The project is focused on developing game-based learning environments where the users’ trace or interaction data could be collected. The game-based environment needs to be designed to allow the users to navigate and explore at their own pace. Using the environment, the participants can practice their technical/professional skills from various options.

Project description

Mental health challenges disproportionately affect vulnerable populations, often due to limited access to traditional healthcare services. The rise of Generative AI offers a groundbreaking opportunity to bridge this gap by providing personalized, scalable, and accessible mental health support. This project, led out of Action Lab, aims to harness the potential of Generative AI to develop innovative technologies tailored for mental health interventions.

Our groundbreaking research explores the intricate relationship between natural language processing (NLP) and electroencephalography (EEG) brain signals [1]. By leveraging advanced machine learning techniques, we aim to decode the neural patterns associated with language comprehension and production, ultimately enabling seamless communication between humans and machines. Our innovative approach has the potential to revolutionize brain-computer interfaces,speech recognition technologies, and assistive devices for individuals with communication impairments.

Collecting and analysing social media content (e.g., Reddit), along with using Google Trends, presents a great opportunity to develop social media epidemic intelligence. This approach can enhance the understanding of chronic conditions such as arthritis, back pain, and knee pain, as well as track associated areas such as treatments and risk factors, including obesity, diet, physical activity, and exercise.
