UG MSE 499 Opportunity – Titus & Strachan

Prof. Alejandro Strachan and I have 2-4 UG research positions available for this Fall. The project will build an autonomous lab that utilizes machine learning to discover a blend of food dyes that mix to create Boilmaker Gold: Hex #CFB991 or RGB (207,185,145).

– One position will work on setting up the experiment (food dyes, glass vials, white light, standard color swatches)
– Another position will work on writing code that automatically extracts color information from an image taken on a cell phone
– Another position will write the machine learning and optimization code to suggest the next experiment

If you are interested in programming, machine learning, autonomous research, this is the opportunity for you.

Please contact me if interested.

Thanks,
