Fall Semester

Week 15 – SLDR

This week, we successfully delivered our final SLDR presentation in front of team INSIGHT, faculty coaches, and mentors. We gathered valuable feedback from our presentation that we hope to implement in our product. Looking ahead to winter break, we hope… Read More

Week 13 – SLDR Progress and Model Refinements

We focused on advancing multiple aspects of our project while preparing for our System Level Design Review (SLDR) this week. We presented our initial SLDR presentation to our peers and gathered valuable feedback. Based on our evolving understanding of system… Read More

Week 12 – PID Feedback and SLDR Preparation

The team reached a significant milestone with our Prototype Inspection Day presentation, where we demonstrated our current prototype to three pairs of judges. We received many helpful comments and suggestions that we plan to implement in our product and put… Read More

Week 11 – PID Preparation

This week, we finished the development of our unimodal model prototypes and began testing to ensure everything functions properly for our upcoming demo. We enhanced our CLIP model’s accuracy through fine-tuning with additional labels. Our work on audio analysis continued… Read More

Week 10 – Model Development Progress

This week, we collected datasets for individual modalities to create our unimodal model architectures. Our team gained access to our shared Github repository, where we’ve begun uploading our code and data processing methods to integrate our various components. We advanced… Read More

Week 9 – Data Collection and Processing

Following our successful PDR presentation in Jacksonville last week, our team has begun the data collection phase. We’ve started gathering data across all modalities needed to train our individual models and developed preliminary processing methods to extract frames, audio, and… Read More

Week 8 – PDR Finalization

This week, our team focused on finalizing our Preliminary Design Review (PDR) materials. We added new sections to our PDR report to meet additional requirements and completed the final version for our sponsor. Based on peer feedback, we also revised… Read More

Week 7 – PDR Peer Review

This week, we focused our efforts on preparing for our PDR presentation peer review session. After developing our PowerPoint slides based on our PDR report, we practiced giving the presentation as a group before we presented it for peer review… Read More

Week 6 – System Architecture

This week, we concluded our literature review and concept generation phases and finalized the overall system architecture. We decided to implement an intermediate fusion multimodal model, combining multiple unimodal models and synthesizing the outputs of these models with a master… Read More

Week 5 – Hurricanes and Zoom Meetings

With Hurricane Helene canceling classes and shutting down campus operations, our team’s efforts were primarily virtual. Despite this setback, our team made good progress this week, acquiring facial analysis model training datasets, identifying latency optimization libraries, and finalizing our semester… Read More

Week 4 – Research and Brainstorming

Our team has been progressing well in our research and planning for the project. We’ve been compiling relevant papers and examining various approaches to inform our implementation. Additionally, we met with a researcher at UF to discuss his work in… Read More

Week 3 – Team Name and Logo

This week, our team has been moving forward with the project rapidly. We finalized our team name and logo, coordinated with project advisors, and began to explore relevant literature. Our team name “Noesys” is derived from the words “noesis” and… Read More

Week 2 – Meet the Team

Hello everyone, welcome to our team’s blog page! We will be working with AGIS AI to assist mental health professionals by using AI to analyze emotions in audio and video. We will be documenting our progress on the project here… Read More
