Student goals and capabilities

Students from the SAIT's Applied Machine Learning Bootcamp and our Applied Product Management Bootcamp participate in a 78 hour interdisciplinary machine learning capstone project. This project culminates in the development of a machine learning model that predicts, detects, or forecasts an entity. The data for the use case could be images (computer vision), text (natural language processing), time series (multi-variate or univariate), or tablular data. The data format would be a folder of images or comma-separated values (CSVs) for text, time series, or tablular data. The client will need to:

1) Provide a clearly defined machine learning problem.

2) Explain how the client intends to use the solution.

3) Explain why this problem needs to be solved.

4) Provide a subject matter expert that can be a touch point for the student and answer questions related to the data and use case.

Expected outcomes and deliverables

Students will produce a proof of concept, predictive machine learning model (i.e. a minimally viable product) that solves a client problem.

Project Examples

Requirements

Examples of student-developed predictive machine learning models:

  • Electricity consumption predictions or electricity load forecasting.
  • Facial recognition.
  • Solar power generation prediction.
  • Oil production prediction.
  • Carbon emission prediction.
  • Heart attack prediction.
  • Credit fraud detection.
  • Predicting customers who are a potential flight risk (customer churn).
  • Using MRI images to detect and predict patients who may have brain tumor.
  • Using chest ray images of patients to predict patients who are at risk of getting covid.

Additional company criteria

Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:

A representative of the company will be available to attend weekly sprint meetings on the evenings of June 9th, 16th, 23rd, 30th, July 7th and 14th. A representative of the company will also be available to attend a final project presentation on the evening of July 21st.

Provide a dedicated contact who is available to answer periodic emails or phone calls over the duration of the project to address students' questions.
