项目摘要
In this Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) site, the Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), in partnership with several other departments at the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA), proposes a REU program focusing on assistive technologies (AT) for people with disabilities (PWD). Undergraduate students are quite capable of performing tangible research, given the right motivation, facilities, mentoring, and guidance. Moreover, participation in active research can greatly enhance their educational experience and can be effective in motivating them to graduate studies. The proposed theme encompasses innovative and novel topics that can help PWD meet barriers of different kinds - attitudinal, architectural, and technological - in accessing employment, navigating public spaces, freely communicating, and living independently. Our REU program is a summer-long research experience for 10 carefully selected participants. The program includes close mentoring that will provide participants with a balance between technology research focus and grounding in pragmatic aspects that shape PWD's lives and assistive applications. The program also encompasses five weeks of intensive training in scientific research techniques and the technical areas, followed by five weeks of instruction in broader aspects of computer coding, technical writing, presentation skills, and aspects of a graduate career. The proposed innovative theme will excite students intellectually, as well as supporting their passion and creativity.People who have disabilities make up one of the largest minorities in the world. The World Health Organization estimates as many as 975 million of those 15 years of age and older live with disabilities. For PWD, AT can create a positive influence by removing or reducing many barriers. AT include devices, systems, equipment, and software that make inclusive environments possible and thereby allow PWD to participate fully in society. Through close and frequent interactions between faculty and participants, the proposed theme of AT will expose participants to innovative and novel inter-disciplinary projects through research and prototyping. In the proposed REU program of CSE at UTA, participants will work on computer programming, algorithms, sensors, data analytics, machine learning, and as well as other aspects of basic and applied computer science and engineering. The prototype projects undertaken by REU participants, even though small in nature, will contribute towards inventive methods, techniques, systems, and apps by enhancing the fundamental knowledge base in related fields, while creating new avenues for cross-disciplinary research. By incorporating an important theme of AT in the diversity-rich UTA environment, we expect to increase the pool of diverse and talents students.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
在本科生(REU)网站的研究经验,计算机科学与工程系(CSE),与其他几个部门在得克萨斯大学阿灵顿(UTA)的合作伙伴关系,提出了一个REU计划侧重于辅助技术(AT)残疾人(PWD)。本科生是相当有能力进行有形的研究,给予正确的动机,设施,指导和指导。此外,参与积极的研究可以大大提高他们的教育经验,可以有效地激励他们研究生学习。拟议的主题包括创新和新颖的主题,可以帮助残疾人满足不同类型的障碍-态度,建筑和技术-在获得就业,导航公共空间,自由交流和独立生活。我们的REU计划是为10名精心挑选的参与者提供为期一个夏天的研究体验。该计划包括密切的指导,将为参与者提供技术研究重点和务实方面的基础之间的平衡,塑造残疾人的生活和辅助应用。该计划还包括科学研究技术和技术领域的五周强化培训,然后是计算机编码,技术写作,演讲技巧和研究生职业生涯方面的更广泛方面的五周教学。建议的创新主题将激发学生的智力,并支持他们的激情和创造力。残疾人是世界上最大的少数民族之一。世界卫生组织估计,在15岁及以上的人中,多达9.75亿人患有残疾。对于残疾人来说,AT可以通过消除或减少许多障碍来产生积极的影响。先进技术包括使包容性环境成为可能的装置、系统、设备和软件,从而使残疾人能够充分参与社会。通过教师和参与者之间的密切和频繁的互动,AT的拟议主题将通过研究和原型设计使参与者接触到创新和新颖的跨学科项目。在UTA CSE拟议的REU计划中,参与者将从事计算机编程,算法,传感器,数据分析,机器学习以及基础和应用计算机科学与工程的其他方面的工作。由REU参与者进行的原型项目,即使性质很小,也将通过增强相关领域的基础知识库,同时为跨学科研究创造新的途径,为创造性的方法,技术,系统和应用程序做出贡献。通过将AT的一个重要主题融入到多样化的UTA环境中,我们希望增加多样化和有才华的学生的数量。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
