This is a more challenging JavaScript project: can you write a program that can play Tic-Tac-Toe? You'll have to figure out a way to translate the game strategy into a computer algorithm. The project will show you how to create a working Tic-Tac-Toe board on a webpage. Your challenge will be to show the computer how to play. Just think: you'll be creating artificial intelligence!

Here's a project where you can try your hand at being a detective with your computer. In this project you'll write a program to do some basic analysis of features of written text (for example, counting the length of each word in the text, or the number of words in each sentence). Then you'll see if you can use the information from your text analysis program to find measurements that can distinguish one author from another. After analyzing known samples of several authors' writings, can your…

What should you eat for breakfast today? What should you wear to school? You make many decisions every day and consider lots of information when making those decisions. What if you could train a computer to make those decisions for you using artificial intelligence? In this project, you will not need to do any computer programming yourself, but you will do some simple math to show how a computer program called a neural network can learn to make decisions.
If you want to try a version of the…
Build your own strobe light using an Arduino and an LED strip. Use it to demonstrate the stroboscopic effect.
Have the phrases "machine learning" or "neural network" caught your interest, but you are not really sure how to use them in a science project? This project is a great place to start for beginners. You will learn about a very simple type of neural network—a computer program modeled after the human brain—called a perceptron. The perceptron can make a simple yes/no decision based on several inputs. You can "train" your perceptron to improve its decision-making abilities. Try it and…
