AGENDA


Summer research projects• Given the current situation the traditional summer research

program is postponed to the fall 2020 semester• Deadlines will be announced as we get closer to the fall

semester pending relaxation of 100 % virtual modalities• These will be open to CC students who have been vetted to

participate.• Two faculty members (Prof. Osorno and Dewey) have

proposed projects that can be performed virtually and these will commence in the summer and be available to CSUN cohort students. A mandatory virtual orientation will be scheduled for all participants at the end of May 2020

• The annual symposium is postponed to spring 2021. Note- all remaining CSUN RA’s from Fall 19-Spring 20 are expected to participate04/16/20 AIMS(HSI-STEM Grant) Meeting # 84 5

Sentiment Analysis of Tweets


•Project Background: In online social networking, there is often a need to perform moderation, be it by blocking particular posts, or potentially whole users. Due to the sheer quantity of posts and users, performing this moderation fully manually is often not feasible. To this end, we need automated tools which can assist human moderators. Towards assisting with this moderation, sentiment analysis is of great value. Sentiment analysis is used to automatically determine if a particular post displays a positive, negative, or neutral attitude.•Goals and Objectives of the Project: The goal of this project is to build a sentiment analysis system for Twitter tweets. This system will utilize machine learning for this purpose. This system will be built in a stepwise fashion:1. An appropriate training set will be identified, containing posts which have

already been labelled with their given sentiment. This may involve using Twitter's API to load data.

2. A machine learning model will be trained on this training set, and will attempt to learn the patterns of positive/negative/neutral sentiment tweets.

3. We will then evaluate the model's performance, and potentially revisit the prior step as needed to make the model more robust.

4. Potentially, to enable moderators to easily use the model, we may embed it in a browser plugin which will dynamically display the sentiment of tweets viewed online.


•Project Outcomes: Students will gain hands-on experience working with machine learning and using related tools (e.g., scikit-learn, Keras, etc.). Depending on the project direction, students may also gain familiarity using web APIs, and writing browser plugins.•Expectations from Students: Students will meet virtually via Zoom ~1 hour per week to learn necessary machine learning background and to provide project status. All communication will be via free software, namely Zoom (video), Slack (text), and GitHub (project management). Additional reading may be needed. Students will use Python, which is commonly used in machine learning. Incoming students must have taken at least a CS1 equivalent (e.g., CSUN's COMP 110/L). Prior Python experience is ideal, but not required. No prior experience with machine learning is necessary. Students must provide their own computer; no special software or hardware is needed. After the project, students are expected to make an oral presentation and present a poster at the AIMS2research symposium, tentatively in Spring 2021.

AGENDA


• Given the current situation, of course we ceased meeting in person, so the engineering project that the students were working on will not go forward for the remainder of this academic year– the drone project. But you would perhaps be interested in knowing that 6 of our AIMS students were heavily involved in the VEX Robotics competition this year (we had a team of 10), and our team achieved excellent results which included winning the Excellence award in VEX, ranking #2 in the regionals (second to USC), and of course qualifying for the World’s VEX robotics competition. Of course, the VEX Worlds Robotics competition got cancelled as the whole world seems to have stopped, but we were very well positioned to do a great job at the Worlds! Our tutoring has always been on going, and now it has moved to online. So our tutoring of AIMS students with AIMS tutors is ongoing.
