Deep Learning for Clothing Classification
To practice convolutional neural network (CNN) design, I worked on a classification problem that was more challenging than toy datasets but still lightweight enough to train quickly on my local machine. The following details the design of a 3-block CNN architecture and the lessons I learned from training it on clothing image data. Dataset Characteristics Clothing classification with the Fashion-MNIST…
Java Elevator Simulator
This is an interactive elevator simulator written in Java with Swing graphics. Users can click the ▲ (up) and ▼ (down) buttons on each floor to spawn riders and call the elevator. When a rider enters the elevator, the user selects their destination floor via a pop-up panel. The program uses a scheduling algorithm called LOOK to fulfill passenger requests…
