BioSignal Analysis
Brain-Computer Interface
Title: | Driving an autonomous wheelchair with a P300-based BCI | |
---|---|---|
Description: | This project pulls together different Airlab projects with the aim to drive an autonomous wheelchair (LURCH) with a BCI, through the development of key software modules. Depending on the effort the student is willing to put into it, the project can grow to a full experimental thesis.

CFU: | 5-20 |
Title: | Online automatic tuning of the number of repetitions in a P300-based BCI | |
---|---|---|
Description: | In a P300-based BCI, (visual) stimuli are presented to the user, and the intention of the user is recognized when a P300 potential is recognized in response of the desired stimulus. In order to improve accuracy, many stimulation rounds are usually performed before making a decision. The exact number of repetitions depends on the user and the goodness of the classifier, but it is usually fixed a-priori. The aim of this project is to adapt the number of repetitions to changing conditions, so as to achieve the maximum accuracy with the minimum time.
Depending on the effort the student is willing to put into it, the project can grow to a full experimental thesis.

Title: | Reproduction of an algorithm for the recognition of error potentials | |
---|---|---|
Description: | Error potentials (ErrPs) are event-related potentials present in the EEG (electroencephalogram) when a subject makes a mistake or when the machine a subject is interacting with works in an expected way. They could be used in the BCI field to improve the performance of a BCI by automatically detecting classification errors.
The project aims at reproducing algorithms for ErrP detection from the literature.

Computer Vision and Image Analysis
Title: | Video surveillance system for indoor Environment | |
---|---|---|
Description: | The goal of this project is to develop a video surveillance system based on background subtraction algorithm. The idea is to use a single static camera to track moving objects in a known environment.
The skills required for this project are:
The project can be turned into a thesis extending the algorithm for camera network. | |

Machine Learning
Title: | Learning API for TORCS | |
---|---|---|
Description: | TORCS is a state-of-the-art open source racing simulator that represents an ideal bechmark for machine learning techniques. We already organized two successfull competitions based on TORCS where competitors have been asked to develop a controller using their preferred machine learning techniques. The goal of this project is to extend the existing C++ API (available here) to simplify the development of controller using a learning framework.
Such an extension can be partially developed by porting an existing Java API for TORCS that already provides a lot of functionalities for machine learning approaches. | |

Number of students: | 1 to 2 | |
CFU: | 5 to 12.5 |
Title: | EyeBot | |
---|---|---|
Description: | TORCS is a state-of-the-art open source racing simulator that represents an ideal bechmark for machine learning techniques. We already organized two successfull competitions based on TORCS where competitors have been asked to develop a controller using their preferred machine learning techniques. So far, the controller developed for TORCS used as input only information extracted directly from the state of the game. The goal of this project is to extend the existing controller API (see here) to use the visual information (e.g. the screenshots of the game) as input to the controllers. A successfull project will include both the development of the API and some basic imaga preprocessing to extract information from the images. | |

Start: | Anytime | |
Number of students: | 1 to 2 | |
CFU: | 5 to 12.5 |
Title: | SmarTrack | |
---|---|---|
Description: | The generation of customized game content for each player is an attractive direction to improve the game experience in the next-generation computer games. In this scenario, Machine Learning could play an important role to provide automatically such customized game content.
The goal of this project is to apply machine learning techniques for the generation of customized tracks in TORCS, a state-of-the-art open source racing simulator. The project include different activities: the automatic generation of tracks, the section of relevant features to characterize a track and the analysis of an interest measure. | |

Title: | TORCS competition | |
---|---|---|
Description: | TORCS is a state-of-the-art open source racing simulator that represents an ideal bechmark for machine learning techniques. We already organized two successfull competitions based on TORCS where competitors have been asked to develop a controller using their preferred machine learning techniques.
The goal of this project is to apply any machine learning technique to develop a successfull controller following the competition rules (available here) | |
