Imagine if every bicycle ride in Cambridge was programmed to be dry! Your goal is to use advanced Dynamic Causal Modelling (DCM) to extrapolate from open rain radar data, finding precise windows when a specific bicycle journey can be completed through dry corridors, even if it’s raining all aro..." current

In contrast, a typical salad plate or sandwich may only require a few leaves, beans or fruit from a plant that can keep growing. Your client has the components for a vertical garden, but wants to manage this in the most versatile and efficient way possible, using soil and water sensors together machine vision to identify every optimal pic..."

The application should use AI to identify suggested talking points and ask contextual questions to trigger the unlocking of long-term memories. The application should accept images as input prompts, and use speech-to-text conversion to capture the user's responses. Ethical aspects should be considered,..."

In contrast, music typesetting systems like Sibelius make all music look much the same. Your client has designed an optimised alternative style for music notation that has been found to improve performance. Your task is to define a specification language for these modifications, and implement a rendering pipeline..." current

Today’s economy is stuck in a rut, because alternative economic theories are proposed by people whose mathematical models are simply less well embedded than the legacy implementations. Your task is to create a quick and dirty financial simulator that could be used by heterodox economists to pro..."

But there is a huge gulf between the technical software of geographical information systems and infrastructure planning on one hand, and the retail and entertainment data that is promoted in consumer products like Google Maps. The city of Nairobi is thinking ahead through an Urban re-engineering Taskforce, including a vision for Nairobi Railway City. Your role..."

Your task is to create a similar tool that could be used to demonstrate image generation biases relevant to visual disabilities. You may also need to consider how this tool can be made accessible to users who have visual..."

This project will integrate remote satellite sensing from the Google Earth Engine with local bioacoustic surveys from the BTO acoustic pipeline, to visualise both historical and projected future measures, supporting land managers to make decisions about crops. harvests, irrigation, tour..." current
