Racial and Gender Bias in AI-Generated Images

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

If someone asks you to draw a picture of a doctor, lawyer, or engineer, what first pops into your mind? The race and gender of the person you imagine might be shaped by your personal life experiences, such as whether you have family members in those professions, or what representations of them you have seen on TV or online. What do you think will happen if you ask an artificial intelligence (AI) program to generate the picture instead? Will pictures generated by AI reflect the true real-world… Read more

26 reviews

How do driverless cars know how to recognize different road signs? They use something called machine learning. In this activity you will teach a computer to recognize different road signs using photos that you take yourself and a tool called Teachable Machine by Google®. The better the training data, the more accurately the program will be able to recognize different types of signs. Read more

Think Like a Computer: Try Machine Learning

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

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… Read more

Understanding the Emotions Hidden in Words with Sentiment Analysis

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Sentiment analysis helps us understand the emotions behind text, such as whether people feel positive, negative, or neutral about a topic. It is useful for analyzing opinions on social media, reviews, or other text data. In this project, you will gather text data on a topic of your choice and use a sentiment analysis tool called VADER (Valence Aware Dictionary and sEntiment Reasoner). Read more

Build Personal Playlists with Machine Learning

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

AI has the power to organize data into categories—even when it is not given clear instructions. In this project, we will create an unsupervised K-Means learning model that organizes songs into distinct groups based on their similarities. The best part? You don't need advanced coding skills; just bring an open mind and a desire to explore the fascinating intersection of music and technology. Are you ready to embark on this exciting journey?

Can AI Predict Who Survived the Titanic's Sinking?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Given the right data, AI can be good at making predictions. In this project, you will create a KNN machine learning model that tries to predict whether a passenger on the Titanic survived based on multiple factors such as age, sex, and fare price. This project requires little to no coding skill; instead, you will need an open mind and curiosity to learn. Ready to give it a try? Read more

Use Machine Learning to Identify Lyme Disease-Transmitting Ticks

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Ticks are a growing public health concern in North America, as their populations and the diseases they carry, like Lyme disease, are on the rise. But how can we help people identify the ticks they encounter to reduce their risk of infection? With artificial intelligence! In this project, you will gather image data of three different tick species and use a convolutional neural network (CNN) to classify them. You will also apply image augmentation techniques to expand and enhance the dataset,… Read more
