Title: Computational Algebraic Intelligence in STEM
Description: Development and application of computer algebraic tools for automatically creating coordinate systems in a science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) application area in a finite discrete-event system models. Artificial algebraic intelligence provides novel methods for AI systems to understand and hierarchically manipulate (e.g. autonomously generating strategies for solving a permutation puzzle like Rubik's cube). Subprojects include algorithmic, applications, and/or interface programming work.
Other information or restrictions: Strong programming ability in a higher level language, and experience with scripting languages. Excellent English spoken and writing skills. Strong mathematical aptitude required, familiarity with discrete mathematics/graph theory/finite automata highly desirable as background. Suitable for strong Math/CS/Eng/Science students with suitable interests and background.

Title: Asynchronous Interaction Machines
Description: Programming and visualization of synchronously and asynchronously updated cellular automata and interaction machines (automata networks that grow and change their topologies in response to interactions/events, with recursive hierarchical structure).
Other information or restrictions: Excellent programming ability in higher level programming languages (e.g. python, java, functional and string processing languages). Previous experiences with visualization/graphical user interface design. Excellent mathematical and algorithmic skills/aptitude. Excellent spoken and written English skills. Suitable for strong Math/CS/Eng/Science students with suitable interests and background.
