Social Networks Rumor/Fake News Detection Using Machine Learning (Dr. ShariatPanahi)

Due to widespread use of social networking platforms, misinformation spread in such networks has become a critical problem which cannot be handled manually. Thus, in this project we aim at investigating current methods proposed in literature to alleviate this problem automatically via Machine Learning.

 

Application of Signal Processing to the Analysis of Financial Data (Dr. Akhavan)

Financiers usually employ two kinds of analysis, fundamental and technical, to find a suitable choice for investment. In the fundamental analysis, the intrinsic value of a company is evaluated based on external events and influences, as well as financial statements. In the technical analysis, the investment opportunities are found by investigation of price trends and chart patterns. In this internship program, the focus is on the technical analysis of financial data. We learn how to deal with the economic data, and how we can employ signal processing techniques for analysis of financial data.

 

Calculating the Entropy of Old and Middle Persian Languages (Dr. Sabbaghian)

Upon successful completion of this project, you will learn the following approaches: N-grams, Shannon Entropy, Cover and King Scheme. You investigate how we can apply these methods to calculate the entropy of Old Persian language which was spoken during the Achaemenid era and Middle Persian which was spoken during the Sassanid dynasty.

 

Neural Coding (Dr. Sabbaghian)

Upon successful completion of this project, you will learn about the neural coding, how it is related to telecommunications and how it can be formulated.

 

Application of Signal Processing to the Vehicle Speed Measurement (Dr. Akhavan)

Analysis of the traffic data is an essential component for managing the entire traffic of a city. One of the most important elements of the traffic data is the speed of vehicles moving throughout the city. In this internship program, we practically learn how to remotely measure the speed of vehicles using a signal transmitter-receiver, and how we can employ signal processing techniques to estimate the vehicle speed.
