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

allan, JosephCallan， JamieU of Massachusetts - AmherstREU：让本科生参与智能信息检索中心的研究这个本科生研究体验（REU）站点项目每年支持10名学生在夏季进行为期三年的项目。学生们在智能信息检索中心（CIIR）完成项目。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，以及为可视化构建Java接口。该项目与霍利奥克山学院（Mt. Holyoke College）有强有力的合作计划，霍利奥克山学院是附近一所杰出的女子学院。REU项目的学生在全国范围内招募，但该项目主要针对马萨诸塞大学和附近四所本科学院的学生。教师和学生参加一个小组研讨会，用来描述、探索和讨论研究方法，帮助本科生了解什么是“好的科学”。以小组为基础的方法是CIIR 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.
