Project Ideas for DIMACS Modules

This project presents a general approach to solving numerically an ODE for velocity, then interpolating the discrete numerical solution to obtain a continuous velocity function, which can be integrated numerically to obtain a continuous distance function that can be fitted to time and distance data by minimizing the sum of squared residuals and using a random search algorithm to find the optimal parameter values.

This presentation describes computational modeling projects, which involve using real-world data and computing with R. We use dynamic R Markdown documents in RStudio for unifying plain text narrative, mathematical typesetting with LaTeX and computing and visualizations in R. We showcase a number of projects such as modeling oil spills and tumors. The projects have been designed to engage prospective and in-service mathematics teachers in exploring computational modeling and problem-solving. The projects will be piloted with prospective teachers and high-school students as part of our preparation and design of a Computer Science Teaching Certificate Program for mathematics teachers.

A circular lung nodule needs to be removed and the surgeon needs to know how much tissue to remove. The goal of this project is to estimate the area of the tumor from the X-ray image of the tumor shown earlier.

The objective of this project is to use the estimated flow rates over the 87-day oil spill to estimate the total volume of the leaked oil.

In this presentation, we discuss creating a virtual classroom in the RStudio Cloud as a workspace where students can use both R and Python in R Markdown.
