REU: Involving Undergraduates in Research at the Center for Intelligent Information Retrieval

EIA-9820309 Allan，JosephCallan，JamieU of马萨诸塞州-阿默斯特REU：让本科生参与智能信息检索中心的研究本科生（REU）研究经验网站项目每年支持十名学生在三年的夏季进行的项目。 学生在智能信息检索中心（CIIR）的项目工作。这些项目包括图像匹配算法、学习轮廓特征的机器方法、使用图像匹配算法检索手写文档以及构建可视化Java接口。 该项目与Mt.霍利奥克学院，一所杰出的附近的女子学院。REU项目的学生在全国范围内招生，但该项目的重点是来自马萨诸塞州大学和附近四所本科院校的学生。 教师和学生参加小组研讨会，用于描述，探索和讨论研究方法，帮助本科生学习什么是“好科学”。 以小组为基础的方法是CIIR的REU的一个重要方面。

EIA-9820309Allan, JosephCallan, JamieU of Massachusetts - AmherstREU: Involving Undergraduates in Research at the Center for Intelligent Information RetrievalThis Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site project supports ten students per year in programs carried out during the summers for three years. The students work on projects in the Center for Intelligent Information Retrieval (CIIR). The projects include work in image matching algorithms, machine methods for learning profile characteristics, retrieval of handwritten documents using image matching algorithms, and building Java interfaces for visualization. The project has strong collaborative plans for the project with Mt. Holyoke College, an outstanding and nearby women's institution.Students for the REU program are recruited nationwide, but the program focuses on students from the University of Massachusetts and the four nearby undergraduate colleges. Faculty and students join in a group seminar that is used to describe, explore, and discuss research methodology, helping undergraduates learn what makes "good science". The group-based approach is an important aspect of the REU at the CIIR.
