Throughout the year, I will be going through the design, implementation, and testing of my project. While I&#8217;m building my project I will be documenting most of the process with this blog. There will be posts about coding breakthroughs, the ways I keep track of my project, and the occasional rant when things don&#8217;t quite go my way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In each post, I\u2019ll focus on a specific topic, whether it\u2019s a new technology I\u2019m learning or a challenge I\u2019ve recently overcome. The idea behind this is to document the real ups and downs of working on a large software project. While at the same time, offering insights into anything that may be helpful for others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Project Brainstorming<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/8098\/files\/2024\/09\/pexels-lexovertoom-1109541-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11\" srcset=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/8098\/files\/2024\/09\/pexels-lexovertoom-1109541-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/8098\/files\/2024\/09\/pexels-lexovertoom-1109541-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/8098\/files\/2024\/09\/pexels-lexovertoom-1109541-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/8098\/files\/2024\/09\/pexels-lexovertoom-1109541-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/8098\/files\/2024\/09\/pexels-lexovertoom-1109541-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/8098\/files\/2024\/09\/pexels-lexovertoom-1109541-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/8098\/files\/2024\/09\/pexels-lexovertoom-1109541-1980x1320.jpg 1980w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As I am waiting to hear back about which project proposal I will be chosen for, I want to highlight some of my favorite project proposals. My goal for this project is to work on something that is AI or algorithm-based. This is because I want to gain some practical experience with these topics while working in a professional environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Top Project Proposals:<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/eecs.engineering.oregonstate.edu\/capstone\/submission\/pages\/viewSingleProject.php?id=FAmMmkQprw0Hi8tb\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/eecs.engineering.oregonstate.edu\/capstone\/submission\/pages\/viewSingleProject.php?id=FAmMmkQprw0Hi8tb\">AI-assisted Features for BRI&#8217;s Growth Forge\u00ae Software<\/a><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I&#8217;m interested in this project of building AI-powered features for BRI  because it helps to turn fast data into effective insights. It will also help me expand my knowledge of integrating AI into existing software.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/eecs.engineering.oregonstate.edu\/capstone\/submission\/pages\/viewSingleProject.php?id=DpWiy4shWx0cJIS0\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/eecs.engineering.oregonstate.edu\/capstone\/submission\/pages\/viewSingleProject.php?id=DpWiy4shWx0cJIS0\">Cloud-Based Algorithmic Trading Strategies for Individual Investors.<\/a><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I am quite excited about the project proposal since it teaches you about learning investment and algorithmic trading in-depth. While also providing you with hands-on building of a cloud-based trading application.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/eecs.engineering.oregonstate.edu\/capstone\/submission\/pages\/viewSingleProject.php?id=8S8W331b6sJl24us\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/eecs.engineering.oregonstate.edu\/capstone\/submission\/pages\/viewSingleProject.php?id=8S8W331b6sJl24us\">Leveraging AI for Improved Public Transit<\/a><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I am super interested in the project because it incorporates AI into real-life applications that create an impact. It also provides the opportunity to learn from experienced data engineers. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So, here&#8217;s to a year of coding, learning, and documenting the progress. Time to get started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to Sean&#8217;s Syntax, my name is Sean and in this blog post, I will be introducing myself and the plans for this blog.
