Austen’s Untitled Platformer is a small tech demo of a 2D platforming game. The large focus of this demo is to try and emulate the smooth feel and rewarding nature of the controls seen in more famous platformers like Super Mario Brothers and Celeste. In the presentation, I will show off the game mechanics as well as give spectators a chance to try the games controls for themselves and give an opinion.

Spool API

Caleb Niehues, Ashley Rediger, Christian Berard

The Spool API is a digital toolset used to track character statistics for the Spool table-top RPG. It can programmatically resolve player-made character abilities in a session with multiple users in a Discord channel. Character abilities are represented using a programming language developed for this project.

GPU Erasure Codes

Ben Thompson

Erasure coding lets you protect your data by striping a file over k disks and writing coding data to an additional m disks with m<=k. This allows you to lose up to m disks and recover the whole file. This technique is commonly used, but can be rather slow, as it relies on several matrix multiplications over the Galois Field with 256 elements. I developed a GPU based implementation of a version of this technique called Reed-Solomon codes that can interface with distributed storage systems like Ceph (which the CS department at K-State uses) to try and reduce the time it takes to encode and decode data.

Quartz Markdown Editor

Kirkland Akins

Quartz MD is a text editor created with the goal of making the process of writing markdown files a pleasant experience. Inspired by the popular markdown editors Typora and Obsidian, Quartz MD tries to combine simplicity with functionality. The main attraction of Quartz MD is the live preview feature, showing you what your markdown file looks like as you type it. In addition it comes with multiple features that make writing markdown faster, easier, and more enjoyable for the user.

OrganizED College Dashboard

Ahren Gann

In order to do so it provides resources, access to other fosterers, and a way to track the information collected on the cats being cared for. The tracking ability lets the users choose the information they are tracking and view the information in an easy to understand fashion.

Gobang Game

Zhuoer Ding

This is my cis598 project for this semester, the Gobang game. Gobang has more than 4000 years history and that its rules were developed in ancient China. But we can find a similar board game with same rules, also in the findings of ancient Greece and pre-Columbian civilizations of America. Its rules are very simple. The red and black sides take turns to play, and the first party with five consecutive pieces of their color on the board win this game. In classic gobang, people use a 20x20 board, while modern gobang is played on a 15x15 board, so I chose a 15x15 board be our game board. AI uses methods such as alpha pruning and multi-threading to improve efficiency. In addition, I have written two graphical interfaces for the game, one is the wpf version and the other is the unity version. The program contains a view and a model, all the game logic and board are encapsulated in the model, and the view is only responsible for displaying the current state of the game. Finally, I used the unit test component to test all the functions about backgammon.

Diabetic Management Program

Steven Avila

This program is to help people with Diabetes in keeping management of their diabetes. It allows a comprehensive form in how much insulin and carbohydrates the person have used. It also keeps track of what the blood sugar currently is and what food eaten. There is a form to look for a day you want to search for and find all information of measurements you have given that day. Last part is a calculator for how much insulin you should give yourself based on what information and a rough A1c rating on how managed the diabetes are currently.

VCloset: A Virtual Closet

Jay Brown

VCloset is a C# program that solves the problem of what to wear next. Allowing the user to upload their clothing via images, one can easily create outfits virtually through the program. Just snap some images of what you already own in your closet and bring individual items together with the help of VCloset. Cycle through each article of clothing manually to assemble an outfit or use the Shuffle button to generate one. The Shuffle button will use your clothing and randomization to provide new ideas you might not have thought of previously.

ScaleUp

Cameron Shilling

ScaleUp is a senior project by Cameron Shilling. ScaleUp uses an industrial camera to take pictures around a small object and then converts the images to a 3D model. This model can then be printed at a larger scale to see more detail in the object. Presentation and demonstration of the project will be on Wednesday December 14th at 2:30pm in DUE 2168.

The Book

Brayden Pankaskie

The Book is a project that combines ancient manuscripts with modern Machine Learning. Bible is a Greek word that translates to “the book” and is the most popular piece of literature ever written. It tells the story of how God made all good things, how his creation turned against Him, and his plans to make everything right again through his son, Jesus. As the Bible says, “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, … Romans 3:23-24“. It contains history, poetry, and philosophy, making it an extremely interesting foundation for Machine Learning tasks. The project takes this ancient book and uses it as the context for multiple question and answering AI algorithms. Visitors may use the website interface to ask philosophical and historical questions about topics like justice, mercy, and love with the goal of gently introducing users to the Bible and Machine Learning.

Slip NFC File Sending App

Mason Potter

Digital presence is critical to success in today’s world. Often times, exchanging social media usernames or account information comes with a huge headache.

MyEvents is a web application that provides K-State organizations with an effortless way to track event data. Users can schedule events, collect attendance, and view reports for each of their organizations.

Procedurally-Generated Atari Environments

Mike Hulcy

Back in 2012 a team of Canadian Researchers released The Arcade Learning Environment- a python interface built on over 55 Atari 2600 games to test and benchmark reinforcement learning agents. However, these games are all trained on a preset single difficulty/mode. My idea is to adapt ALE to have procedural generation which randomizes these modes/difficulties during training, so that generalist algorithmic research can be done with this new set of environments.

Unknown Roguelike

Haoran An

This is a 2D Roguelike game. It will have a random map, random enemy, and random skill in every game to make you have met a random situation in this game. It will include 4 different weapons, and 8 different skills to help survive and close the enemy created altar. The elements from the enemy will increase your ability and give you different skills. Just like the name every step to you are unknown.

Voxel Raytracer

Ethan Tucker

Ray tracing is a computer graphics algorithm that renders a 3D scene by calculating the intersection point of a ray with the scene geometry for each pixel of an image. This process allows for straightforward implementation of lighting effects including shadows, reflections, and ambient occlusion. However, the ray-scene intersections are computationally expensive. As an alternative to triangles, a scene can be represented as a grid of cubic voxels. This greatly reduces the cost of ray-intersections, allowing for a real time rendering engine. For my project I have implemented a real time voxel raytracer using the Vulkan Graphics API and C++. This engine is used in a desktop application where users can explore a detailed voxel scene with a variety of ray-traced lighting effects. The project will be presented at 10:30 on Thursday, December 15th in DUE 2168 or on Zoom at https://bit.ly/cis598f22.

Street Signs Analytics

Rana Chevuru

My name is Rana Chevuru, and I am doing street sign aggregation. Allowing artificial intelligence to detect trends can help write reports for businesses. In my case, I decided to aggregate the street signs. To do this I first had to collect the images from google maps API, and I then had to clean them before using AWS Rekognition. There were some discrepancies that came up from the training. Sounds interesting come to Durland 2168 on December 15 at 11:15.

Wildcat Intramural

Zane Myers, Adam Winter

Wildcat Intramural Inc. is very simply a website for K-State Intramurals. We were tired of how confusing and bloated with ads IMLeagues (the current website that K-State uses for it’s intramural needs) is so we set out to create change. Our goal was to create a simple, user-friendly site that would allow students to quickly and easily create a team, join a league and invite their friends to join their team. Our aim is to help students spend less time on the paperwork and more time dreaming of winning the ultimate championship.

Hyperbolic & Multi Horizon Learning Algorithms

Kevin Duong

Reinforcement Learning is an area of machine learning that uses the idea of rewards to train artificial intelligent agents. Through repeated simulations, agents can figure out their environments and learn optimal policies. Standard methods have used single-time preferrenced discounting methods for training deep neural networks, such as looking at far-distant future rewards or immediate near-term rewards. We expand this discounting scheme by implementing multi-horizon learning to include multiple time horizons during training. Current methods have been applied in Single and Multi-agent settings with promising results in the single-agent setting. Current experiments and tweaks are still being run in the multi-agent setting, however, due to possibly an implementation error. With multi-horizon learning, agents are successfully able to learn with an unbiased expectations. Results have shown in the single agent setting that this method has also provided better generalization with environments that have procedurally generated dynamics.

Context Textiles

Amanda Dreesen

Only two of over 15,000 textiles artifacts housed in the K-State Textile Museum can currently be displayed. The goal of the Context Textiles capstone project is to create accessibility to these historical pieces. Context Textiles [‘conTEXTiles’] is a web application meant to display the photographed artifacts of current and past exhibits. Audience reach is supplemented through generated QR codes linked to either individual artifacts, exhibits, or the homepage. Curator, Marla Day, has made this proof-of-concept possible by supplying photographs and written information about a handful of exhibits.

Nathan Wells

Data Processing Units (DPU) are a cutting edge technology developed by NVIDIA in the efforts of offloading computation that could be done by the processor. Our team has been working to recreate the experiment “GraphBLAS on the Edge: Anonymized High Performance Streaming of Network Traffic”. The idea being that instead of using high thread count central processing units (CPU) a DPU could be used to either create similar results or even increase performance. The implementation of this project was achieved with libraries such as Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) and GraphBLAS and written in C.

Hydroponics Management System

Cashel FitzGibbons

Cashel FitzGibbons’s Computer Science Project, a Hydroponic Management System, will be presented at 8 a.m. on Tuesday, May 9th, 2023. The presentation will be held in DUE 2168 and streamed on Zoom at https://bit.ly/cis598s23. Hydroponics is a horticultural practice that allows for growing plants without soil by submerging the roots in a nutrient rich aqueous solution. The benefits of this include more control over the plants’ development, greater planting-density via verticality, and no dependence on soil quality. This project presents an easily expandable technological solution that can manage the overhead of monitoring and regulating the environment of a hydroponic system and allow the grower to easily access and control the system via a website. The development stack for such a system must include sensors, actuators, microcontrollers, small single-board computers, a database management server, a web server, and a corresponding user-friendly website. The Hydroponic Management System proposed in this project will utilize Arduino Nanos, to control relevant sensors and actuators, that connects via Bluetooth to a Raspberry Pi, to allow future controllers to be easily added, which inserts the data into a MSSQL Server database bound to a website developed using ASP.NET Razor and MVVM architecture hosted on a ASP.NET webserver. The MSSQL Server and Webserver are hosted locally via Docker.

3D Printing Monitoring Framework

Quentin Ricketts

The “3D Printing Monitoring Framework” is a Python-based software framework that automatically monitors 3D printing processes using webcam images. The program uses computer vision techniques to analyze the images and detect issues such as print detachment or lack of extrusion. The framework is currently configured to use a Prusa I3 Mk3 printer and pre-sliced gcode. To use the framework, the user is prompted to connect the webcam and printer through serial communication, load in a gcode file, and press start. From there, the program runs autonomously until the part is printed, at which point the program logs the results. The program is designed to run locally on a user’s computer and is relatively lightweight. The program is designed as a framework, meant to be expanded in the future, introducing new features, and adding broader support for printers and webcams.

Team Based Pixel Game

Sean Hurt

Inspired by r/place, a digital canvas where users collaborate to create art one pixel at a time, Warpix involves two teams of players who must coordinate single-pixel moves to play effectively. Users can login using Google Authentication to begin making moves and will have to wait a set amount of time before making another move. Warpix is a responsive website built using a Node.js backend with a React frontend connected using WebSockets.

Magical Casters

Jordan Miller

Ways to control things that happen within video games have been the same for a while, in my opinion. Magical Casters is a game that looks to fix that, by using a Neural Network (Keras/TensorFlow) to observe mouse movements in the form of a drawing and classify it. In a randomly generated 2D Voxel-based world built in Monogame and filled with fearsome foes and life-changing loot, having a certain stick and drawing magical circles allows even the most average caster to create magnificent fireballs or whatever they may please, with respect to what they have learned. The foes you may encounter can be the harmless-looking slime or the large and slow but powerful golem. Hidden among these enemies, however, you will find bountiful rewards for whoever is brave enough to take the journey.

Web of Smithies

Eric Yu

The Maitland E. Smith Scholarship House is an off-campus cooperative living option for all K-State male students. The house was established back in 1958 and currently consists of 34 members. Over the years, it’s apparent that the house is failing to keep up with the fast pace of the technological advancements the world is going through nowadays, and one of the root problems is our outdated website. Web of Smithies is an upgraded website built with React JS on the front-end and Cypher on the back end. It is a collection of microservices and is designed to help with three main aspects of the house: informativity, connectivity, and creativity. With this tool, people who aren’t familiar with the house can be informed, the recruiting process will become much easier, and current smithies (house members) will have the opportunity to connect with each other, incoming new-men, and alumnus better. Overall, Web of Smithies will increase the life quality of everyone associated with Smith House and help show the world just how exciting cooperative living can be.

Predictive Golf Tournament Model

Mason Wittman

Golf tournaments are extremely hard to predict as there are 156 players in one tournament and any of them have a chance to win. The Golf Tournament Prediction Model will be able to output six potential players that have a good chance of winning based off how the player’s strengths and the course’s strengths align. Many courses are tailored better to some players’ game as each individual course has certain aspects that differ from other courses. The model uses machine learning software Weka to help create a working algorithm. Come support Mason Wittman on Wednesday May 10, 2023, at 8:45AM – 9:30AM in DUE 2168 or at https://bit.ly/cis598s23.

Worlds Without Number Faction Simulator

Evelyn Gruver

The Worlds Without Number Faction Simulator is an application developed by Evelyn Gruver. Worlds Without Number, its namesake, is a tabletop RPG written by Kevin Crawford. An optional game mechanic is a faction simulator designed to generate events that occur in the world of the campaign a Game Master (GM) is running. This faction simulator from the game rules is a strategy game that the GM runs entirely themselves before engaging with players to dynamically alter the world around them. The simulator is an incredibly useful tool; however, it can be cumbersome to use for large factions with many assets. The Worlds Without Number Faction Simulator aims to remedy this issue with WPF, SSMS, and C# by running the process for the GM as an application so the GM doesn’t have to make the dice rolls themselves. The presentation is Wednesday, May 10 at 9:30 in DUE 2168, or can be viewed on Zoom here: https://bit.ly/cis598s23

Interactions Between Nations Through Trade

Rana Chevuru

Trying to understand the geopolitics among the different nations is quite challenging. We need serval different tools to understand this topic. Therefore, a tool can be showing that trade between nations can be exponential in understanding geopolitics.

Climate-Control and Data Logging System for Mycelium Growing

Isaac Peterson

Mushroom cultivation is growing, both as a hobby and a small business opportunity. Grain spawn is a nutrient-dense food source fully colonized and free from contamination. It is used to inoculate a larger substrate, like straw or sawdust, giving the desired fungus a head start against any competing decomposers. Because producing it can be slow and tedious, it is often expensive. I designed a device that makes grain spawn production easier and quicker. The project runs on a raspberry pi zero SBC. The sensor and control code is written in rust. Data is logged in a SQLite database. Freecad was used to model all mechanical parts, and python was used to automate part of that process. Data will accessable by exporting a csv of log files.

What’s Next

Connor Gabrielson

What’s Next is a web application designed to aid users in finding new music to listen to, as well as play on guitar. The application was built using a Django backend and a React frontend. There are three main pieces of functionality used in the application: a dashboard showing basic statistics about the current logged in user’s Spotify listening habits, a page to find new music to listen to, and a page for a user to find music to play on guitar. The application uses data from the Spotify API for user statistics, as well as to obtain the audio features of songs - the basis of the recommendation system. In addition to this, the application uses web scraped tablature from guitar tab websites to recommend songs to recommend songs that a user will both want to learn, and can reasonably learn.

Legion DB

Nicholas Friesen

With the advent of modern data systems for web development, SQL server is being complemented by many NoSQL solutions which are better suited for web APIs like REST and SOAP. While there are many database applications for NoSQL and big data, many companies still struggle finding a way to store and operate with data from 3rd party API’s. Legion DB is a database engine designed to store both JSON and XML, the two most popular API return types. This would allow companies to easily store data for future use in the format it originally was produced in with very little effort. The engine has many performance features to improve query performance over simply storing raw files and adds important meta information automatically to assist developers in creating useful data platform features.

Analyses of Institutional Reputation through Social Media Data Mining

ELA Platform

Colton Capps

An ELA is an equivalent learning activity. Activities are equivalent if they teach the same concept and provide a similar level of scaffolding/support to the student. ELAs can enable teachers to adhere to a concept called Mastery Learning, which is a method of curriculum delivery shown to be effective, but not present in many classrooms. ELAs can also enable the Universal Design for Learning (UDL), another set of researched concepts involving optimal circumstances for learners. The ELA Platform is a webapp which integrates existing ELAs with an LMS via the IMS LTI standard. By fusing these standardized learning technologies and concepts (Mastery, Equivalency, UDL, LTI, LMS), the ELA Platform can improve learning strategies across many classrooms.

Spells and Shapes

Kirkland Akins

Spells and Shapes is a minimalistic 2D rouge like game that was created using the Godot Engine. In the game the player progresses through a series of procedurally generated encounters using a repertoire of player made magic spells to combat enemies that stand in their way. Completing encounters rewards the player with “Spell Components”, which are used to create and modify what spells they have available to them. Both the player and the enemies they face get access to more and stronger Spell Components as the game progresses, allowing the spells they use to become more varied and numerous. The modular design and random acquisition of Spell Components ensures that each attempt is different than the last, and forces players to adapt what spells they use as they progress.

AD Discord Bot

Reece Miller

My name is Reece Miller, and my presentation will provide an in-depth overview of my Active Directory Discord Bot. Over the last few years, the online VoIP and social platform Discord has proven to be a versatile tool in both education and in the workplace. Within a Discord server, administrator privileges and permissions are organized with a hierarchical “role” system; users can be given roles on the server that grant them elevated permissions which dictate what they can and cannot see. The Active Directory Discord Bot uses the Discord.js library and the Gmail API to sync these roles with the groups that a user belongs to within a Windows Active Directory through a simple email verification process. To become “AD Verified” and access previously locked elements of the Discord server, a user must provide their email address and then verify their identity with a v4 UUID that is sent to that address. My presentation will take place on Thursday, May 11th from 2:30-3:15 in DUE 2168. A link to the Zoom stream can be found at https://bit.ly/cis598s23

HAL

Abdullah Rasheed

Static program analysis aims to compute safe approximations of program properties of interest. Program analyzers are a crucial component to modern day compilers, software engineering, program verification, and much more. Unfortunately, static analyses are heavily dependent on the semantics and the syntactic structure of the programming language that is being analyzed; they also reasonably vary from property to property. This results in a vast number of analyzers for different languages, as well as analyzers for each property being analyzed. My project, “Hal,” solves these two issues through a code framework that allows users to easily specify any dataflow property for any programming language’s grammar. Hal delivers a program analyzer which can interpret the grammar and compute the specified property for any program in the given language.

Minimum Wage Matters

Investigating The Relationship Between Wages, Preemption Policies, Health, and Educational Outcomes

Carrie Aponte

The goal of this research project is to investigate potential relationships between minimum wage, preemption policies, and various health and educational outcomes. Previous studies have shown connections between minimum wage preemption and adverse health outcomes, but the relationships lacked thorough exploration. This presented the need to further study and quantify these relationships as well as the opportunity to investigate potential relationships with educational data. This research employed a data science approach, beginning with data collection and data wrangling, followed by thorough data exploration via supervised and unsupervised machine learning, feature selection, and correlation analysis. From these analyses, a significant relationship was established between preemption, infant mortality rates, hypertension, and numerous other poor health outcomes. A strong inverse correlation between wages and negative health outcomes was found, indicating that increased wages were associated with fewer negative health outcomes. Gender and racial relationships were discovered, showing that male and Asian students had significant links to higher wages and fewer negative health outcomes compared to female and Black students, who show significant relationships with low wages and increased adverse health outcomes. Average GPA was found to be significantly inversely correlated with a variety of poor health outcomes and positively correlated with wage increases, suggesting that academic performance increases when finances and health issues are of less concern. This study contributes to the understanding of how wages and preemption impact health and educational outcomes and highlights the importance of addressing economic disparities and health inequities to promote equitable outcomes.

Kansas State GPS Map

Andrew Barrett

I have made a map of Kansas State University that when prompted will tell you the shortest path to go from one building to another. This has been done using nodes, and connecting them with neighbors, there are approximately 450 nodes that were created. The nodes store information of longitude and latitude and any other nodes it points to. I have then used an A start algorithm to find the shortest path possible. This is all in C# using Visual Studio and I have used razor pages to make a mock website.

The Cookbook

Sebastian Trill

This project was born from my love to cook. Spending long hours with my family cooking dishes at holidays or just for fun. This website is for me, as well as others, to use to store their own recipes. Enough with all of the old folders with countless cutouts and loose notebook papers with recipes on them. Time to get these recipes in a more modern cookbook that allows for easy creation and searching of recipes. This site uses a built in SQLite database to make storing and searching for recipes quick and easy. Along with this, I added the benefit of auto calculating the nutrition facts for each recipe added to the website. To do this nutrition information, I utilize an API called CalorieNinjas to retrieve all of the nutrition for the recipe ingredients. With this site, it will make searching through recipes more efficient and get rid of all the clutter.

CheckMate

Chibuike Samuel Eze

With the recent spike in the use of AI tools such as chatbots, many can be used unethically and will inevetably be targeted towards the increase in spam with their advancement. However, currently, many AI-written emails do not get flagged for spam, with many able to bypass detection done by email filters. With many phishing emails being sent en masse from human parties, the initial hypothesis that “Emails would not be able to accurately tell the difference between human emails, scam or not, VS. AI written emails”, was based on the fact that chatbots could in the future diversify phishing email syntax to prevent being flagged. CheckMate is a research project using Machine Learning Algorithms and Natural language processing (NLP) to test this hypothesis. To allow for extra preventative measures, CheckMate is also distributed as a Chrome Extension Project via Gmail, using different classifiers to make detection applicable to the everyday user.
