Litter is not only an eyesore but also a serious threat to wildlife and the environment. While some littering is intentional, much of it occurs accidentally–such as when trash falls from garbage trucks or strong winds scatter waste from bins. Machine learning offers a powerful solution for detecting litter, paving the way for future innovations, including autonomous robots capable of cleaning up our surroundings.  Read more

Air pollution is a growing issue, especially in cities, due to the rise of industrial activities, increased fossil fuel consumption from things like car use, and natural events like wildfires. This pollution is measured by the Air Quality Index (AQI), which shows how clean or polluted the air is. But what if we could predict changes in AQI to help communities plan ahead to protect people who are at risk from air pollution? That’s where machine learning comes in. In this project, you will… Read more

Have you ever wondered what causes wildfires and how resources are allocated to prevent their spread? In this science project, you will use machine learning to predict areas of wildfire susceptibility and their intensities. Read more
