Exploring the Impact of Social Media on Mental Health with Machine Learning

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Do you ever wonder if you spend too much time online? How can the amount of time spent on social media influence someone's mental health? What other factors play a role? In this science project, you will investigate which variables correlate with better mental health scores using a machine learning algorithm called the Random Forest algorithm. Read more

Predict Air Quality with Machine Learning

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

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

Predicting Thyroid Cancer Recurrence with Machine Learning

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

For cancer patients, remission–a period when the signs and symptoms of cancer are reduced or disappear–brings immense relief, but there is often a chance of recurrence, or the cancer coming back. Have you ever wondered how doctors can predict if cancer might come back in some patients? Thyroid cancer, a type of cancer affecting the thyroid gland, has a recurrence rate of about 5-30%. Depending on many factors, some patients may have a higher chance of thyroid cancer recurrence than… Read more

Wildfire Simulator

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Wildfires can devastate communities, destroying homes and creating smoke that can affect air quality over huge areas. A wildfire could start from a natural cause like a lightning strike, or humans being careless with cigarette butts or campfires. What if you could predict how a wildfire will spread to help give people an advanced warning to get out of harm's way? Can forest management techniques like controlled burns—intentionally setting smaller, more controlled fires—help reduce… Read more

Can AI Classify Stars?

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Understanding the different types of celestial objects in our galaxy is important for astronomers. It helps them study how these objects form and evolve, map the night sky, understand the structure of the Milky Way and other galaxies, and identify celestial bodies that might host habitable environments. In this project, you will create a boosted tree model to classify celestial objects based on their spectral characteristics. Read more

Detect Litter with Machine Learning

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

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

Feel Sound With Your Fingertips: Ultrasonic Haptics

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Virtual reality headsets can make you see something that isn't really there, but can you feel an object that isn't there? In this project, you will build a device that lets you feel invisible sound waves in midair. Read more

Make Your Own Wireless Alarm System

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Have you ever wished you could have an alarm to prevent your little brother or sister from sneaking into your room? How about an alarm to prevent someone from stealing your favorite toy or from taking cookies out of the cookie jar? In this project you will learn how to program your own customized, wireless alarm systems to send you alerts about whatever you want! Read more

How Does Distance Affect Wireless Signal Strength?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Are you ever annoyed by a poor Wi-Fi signal? What about when you try to send a text message, and it just won't go through because of poor cell service? Have you ever wondered what factors affect the strength of your signal and the speed of the connection? If so, this project is for you! 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
