AI-enabled detection of unidentified or unregulated boats from high resolution satellite imagery
The Laboratory for Human-Environmental Interactions Modeling and Analysis (HEIMA; https://heima.ua.edu/) is seeking a motivated undergraduate student to support an ongoing National Science Foundation-funded project on Disrupting Illicit Supply Networks. The undergraduate research assistant will support efforts to detect unidentified or unregulated boats (UUBs) from high resolution satellite imagery. This will contribute to a larger study about the routes that cocaine traffickers use to move shipments through Central America to the United States and European Union. Responsibilities: • Downloading satellite images from designated sources based on predefined criteria. • Processing downloaded images through an existing object-detection m...

Igor OstrovskiyBiomedical sensors
We have several projects that deal with development and testing of biomedical instrumentation. Depending on the project, the students may participate in several related research activities: 1) Sensor design, manufacture and testing. Practical hands-on tasks that often need 3D design skills, working with plastics, resins and other materials. 2) Signal processing and pattern recognition of signals collected by our sensors. The sensors are used in the human studies and the collected data need to be processed to recognize events of interest in the sensor data. Either direction can be used as a credit in research scholars program or for conference paper preparation....
