Academic Research Team Project Paper

COVID-19 Open Research Dataset Challenge (CORD-19)

An AI challenge with AI2, CZI, MSR, Georgetown, NIH & The White House

(1) FULL-LENGTH PROJECT

Dataset Description

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the White House and a coalition of leading research groups have prepared the COVID-19 Open Research Dataset (CORD-19). CORD-19 is a resource of over 44,000 scholarly articles, including over 29,000 with full text, about COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, and related corona viruses. This freely available dataset is provided to the global research community to apply recent advances in natural language processing and other AI techniques to generate new insights in support of the ongoing fight against this infectious disease. There is a growing urgency for these approaches because of the rapid acceleration in new coronavirus literature, making it difficult for the medical research community to keep up.

Call to Action

We are issuing a call to action to the world’s artificial intelligence experts to develop text and data mining tools that can help the medical community develop answers to high priority scientific questions. The CORD-19 dataset represents the most extensive machine-readable coronavirus literature collection available for data mining to date. This allows the worldwide AI research community the opportunity to apply text and data mining approaches to find answers to questions within, and connect insights across, this content in support of the ongoing COVID-19 response efforts worldwide. There is a growing urgency for these approaches because of the rapid increase in coronavirus literature, making it difficult for the medical community to keep up.

A list of our initial key questions can be found under the Tasks section of this dataset. These key scientific questions are drawn from the NASEM’s SCIED (National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine’s Standing Committee on Emerging Infectious Diseases and 21st Century Health Threats) research topics and the World Health Organization’s R&D Blueprint for COVID-19.

Many of these questions are suitable for text mining, and we encourage researchers to develop text mining tools to provide insights on these questions.

In this project, you will follow your own interests to create a portfolio worthy single-frame viz or multi-frame data story that will be shared in your presentation. You will use all the skills taught in this course to complete this project step-by-step, with guidance from your instructors along the way. You will first create a project proposal to identify your goals for the project, including the question you wish to answer or explore with data. You will then find data that will provide the information you are seeking. You will then import that data into Tableau and prepare it for analysis. Next you will create a dashboard that will allow you to explore the data in depth and identify meaningful insights. You will then give structure to your data story by writing the story arc in narrative form. Finally, you will consult your design checklist to craft the final viz or data story in Tableau. This is your opportunity to show the world what you’re capable of – so think big, and have confidence in your skills!

Computer science

 An array A contains n integers taken from the interval [0,4n], with repetitions allowed. Describe an efficient algorithm for determining an integer value k that occurs the most often in A. What is the running time of your algorithm? 2. An array A contains n−1 unique integers in the range [0,n−1], that is, there is one number from this range that is not in A. Design an O(n)-time algorithm for finding that number. You are allowed to use additional space besides the array A itself 3. In steps, find the computational complexity of the following loops: (i) for ( c = 1, i = 1 ; i <= n ; i *= 2) for (j =1 ; j <= n ; j++)  c++; (ii) for (cc = 1, i = 1 ; i <= n ; i *= 2) for (j = 1; j <= i ; j++) cc++;

PC BUILD AND MANUAL PART 2

  

1. The PC Build assignment has specific requirements such as using IEEE citations. For most, this will be the first and possibly only time you are required to utilize EEE standards/formatting. I do not agree with using IEEE due to the remainder of your curriculum at almost any level at any institution utilizing APA formatting. However, no matter what I think, UMUC sets the rules and we must adhere to them, no questions asked. Some other requirements include:

o The PC Build assignment has minimum standards as part of the grading rubric that must be followed as well. You must include your name in the file name you submit in LEO.

o You must include a proper title page.

o Citations must be shown for pictures, paragraphs, and as part of your reference section at the end of the build.

o You must meet the criteria listed for each item in the build.

o You must break the assignment up and submit it as three separate assignments, and not one large one.

o You must include brand and model recommendations for each component so that you can demonstrate a mastery of the material.

o You may resubmit each PC Build draft once, and each must be submitted within 7 days of your original submission. For example, if you submit PC Build Draft 1 on 10/15, you may make changes based on my feedback and resubmit no later than 10/22; after that only your original grade will count.

o NOTE: NO late work is accepted, so you cannot submit or resubmit after the course ends, no exceptions.

2. Failure to follow the instructions above will result in assignments being returned ungraded, or failing grades.

PC Build and Manual (Parts 1-3)

  

Overview

You will provide a comprehensive and detailed manual documenting the step-by-step process for building a computer using the components provided in LabSim 14.1 and for the Video Card only, use information in LabSim 3.12: “Build a Computer from Scratch.” The manual will be used by entry-level technicians, so it should be clear, concise, and formatted using IEEE citation style, with screenshots of each step from LabSim 14.1 and for Video Cards only, use LabSim 3.12. Your manual should be similar to step-by-step instructions on How to Change the Oil in Your Car. Note carefully how in this example, not only is each step described individually, and in detail, but also there is a visual representation of each step. You should model your submission along the same lines. Keep in mind that your manual will be used as a guide for new technicians.

The manual should not document how to complete a LabSim section; rather, it should provide detailed instructions on how to build an actual computer for a potential customer:

“Drag the motherboard from the shelf to the motherboard plate in the system case.”

“After properly grounding yourself, pick up the motherboard and place it inside the area where the motherboard will sit in the case. Align the screw holes on the motherboard with the screw holes on the case. Use appropriate screws to mount the motherboard inside the case, making sure not to scratch the surface of the motherboard.”

To learn about the required parts which must be present in your submissions, and to learn how you will be assessed on this assignment, please take a moment to review the rubrics.

The manual will be submitted in three separate parts. Part 1 addresses Sections 1-5 of the overall manual, Part 2 addresses Sections 6-10, and Part 3 addresses Sections 11-12.
