Engineers share expertise around Nautilus with Great Plains Network
Mizzou Engineers are sharing their expertise around the National Research Platform, or Nautilus, with academic peers and leaders across the state this year. Nautilus is a massively scaled hypercluster with thousands of compute nodes located all across the U.S. and powered by Kubernetes, an open source software platform.
Civil Engineering team develops realistic artificial data set for road safety studies
A Mizzou Engineering team is hoping artificial intelligence (AI) can be leveraged to prevent vehicle crashes in the future. To that end, they’ve developed realistic artificial data sets (RAD) that can be used to train machines to predict the factors that cause wrecks. These data sets are now available through the U.S. Department of Transportation. The three-year $1.1M project was supported by the US DOT’s Exploratory Advance Research Program.
AI software can predict ‘roadmap’ for protein location, biological discoveries
Recently, Dong Xu, Curators' Distinguished Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Missouri, and colleagues updated their protein localization prediction model, MULocDeep, with the ability to provide more targeted predictions, including specific models for animals, humans and plants.
Mizzou team uses EMG signals to assess movement in osteoarthritis patients
An interdisciplinary research team at Mizzou has demonstrated a way to use non-invasive electromyography, or EMG, signals to assess lower body movements in osteoarthritis patients.
Industry consortium guides expansion of construction management programming
Mizzou Engineering continues to expand programming around construction management with assistance from industry representatives from some of the top firms in the country.
Chemical engineering students complete 2023 AIChE Student Design Challenge for capstone project
Chemical Engineering students at Mizzou used their capstone project this past semester to create a process to turn recycled plastic into oil for a new material and also provided recommendations to improve recycling practices in Indonesia.
Information technology students create Mizzou trivia game for capstone project
Information technology students at Mizzou this semester developed a single-player trivia game centered around Mizzou’s historic columns. The project was one of many created by IT students in their capstone course, a class that wraps up students’ degrees and prepares them for the life of an IT professional.
Computer science students connect with local bakery for capstone project
Computer science students in the capstone group Pecan π Shop created a web application for bakery owners to manage all aspects of their businesses. The project was one of many that CS students worked on for their capstone course, a class that connects student groups with industry partners to solve a real-world problem.
Industrial engineering students optimize healthcare systems for capstone project
Industrial engineering students this past semester developed a new model to improve patient flow at MU Health Care. The project was part of a capstone class, which allows seniors to wrap up their industrial engineering degrees by solving real-world problems.
EECS department recognizes outstanding faculty, students
The Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) recognized outstanding faculty and students at a first-of-its kind awards ceremony earlier this month.
