 +
<p>We solve social problems such as traffic congestion and environmental pollution by providing Mobility-as-a-Service that reduces time and cost by analyzing mobility demand with artificial intelligence technology and optimizing supply such as dispatch and route.</p>
 +
<p>We improve the service by scientifically analyzing the demand and supply of mobility by securing characteristic information such as gender and age of passengers and travel data with artificial intelligence computer vision technology.</p>
 +
 
 +
<p>Route Simulation<br>
 +
The express route simulation technology proposes an efficient express route by selecting high-congested stops without changing the route itself. Through machine learning analysis, predict the congestion level and arrival time compared to existing routes and check the expected effect of improvement.</p>
 +
 
 +
<p>Dispatch Optimization<br>
 +
The bus dispatch interval optimization technology utilizes operation information for each route, such as passenger boarding and alighting, bus stop congestion, real-time traffic volume, operation speed by route, and route length. Machine learning analysis calculates passenger demand limit and bus operation supply limit, and derives the optimal dispatch interval for each time zone.</p>

'''Project 2: Patient Journaling App
 +
'''<br>
 +
Medical Humanities (MH) is an interdisciplinary field of medicine which includes the humanities, social sciences, arts and their application to medical education and clinical practice. It has profound impact on the professional identities of the clinicians and patient care. One of the modalities in order to apply MH principles into the clinical setting involves patient journaling, as this provides an avenue for patients to express themselves through writing. These writings will then allow them to document their experiences and thoughts during their hospital stay and these are important artifacts to ensure that clinical care adopts a humanistic approach. This patient journaling app will be adjunct to our Medical Humanities website. The app will house textual prompts to allow patient to stimulate their creative thinking and writing. At the end of the hospital stay, patients can opt to compile and send their digital journals into their person email; At the same time, the MH team can collect these inputs, analyse and shortlist cases for medical teaching to doctors and students.

'''<br>
 +
Junior doctors in Internal Medicine Residency Programme will require to undergo a 3-year training programme. During this 3-year period, the residents need to undergo a series of postings to different medical specialties for exposure to a myriad of patients and conditions to hone their clinical skills. In order to do so, the residency admin team must solicit inputs and preferences from the junior doctors in order for them to plan out the postings in advance, with a set of planning rules. Eventually, the product will be a finalised rotation plan but along the way, there will be changes in the posting plans of junior doctors and that will unavoidably modify the subsequent rotations for other doctors moving forward. Rotation statistics per doctor, audit trail and visualisation of updated plans will be important. <br>

'''Project 5: Triaging of patients at the Emergency Department (ED)
 +
'''<br>
 +
This project looks into the development of an automated triaging solution to complement the knowledge of ground staff at the CGH Emergency Department (ED). It is envisioned that the solution will serve as a clinical decision support system which will allow rapid triage of patients with various symptoms and escalation of care in a timely manner.<br>
  
5. To be able to export into various file formats CSV, XLS, PDF.
+
Triaging patients is a crucial step in identifying the urgency of intervention for patients prior to the doctor’s consultation. Currently at ED, triage nurses use a categorization system based on four levels (P1, P2, P3 and P4), from P1 patients requiring immediate management and resuscitation to P4 patients who present with non-emergency conditions. Given the limited resources and critical environment of the ED, it is imperative that patients are triaged according to their acuity and severity of complains in a timely and accurate manner. <br>
  
Point of Contact: Jeslyn Tay: jeslyn.tay.y.h@sgh.com.sg, Serika Cara Navarro: serika.cara.navarro@sgh.com.sg
+
An automated triaging solution that aids in triaging patient’s severity will then allow hospital resources to be directed towards patients who need the most urgent and critical care. This will ensure that care is provided expeditiously before the patient deteriorates further. It will be desirable for this solution to conduct triaging accurately based on quick and easy input of information.<br>
  
''' Project #7 '''
+
Deliverables:<br>
 +
An automated clinical decision triage system that can stratify patients according to the acuity and severity of their presenting complaints, with the following features:<br>
 +
* Accuracy in triaging comparable to human triaging (obtained from auditing)
 +
* Ability in picking out urgent cases / highlight possibility of deterioration & escalating such alerts to clinical staff for expeditious clinical attention
 +
* Layman-friendly user interface for both staff and patients
 +
* No adverse outcomes from wrong triaging

'''Project 6: TEMI Fall Prevention and Detection
 +
'''<br>
 +
Use case exploration of having a night patrol TEMI and alerting on-duty staff when patient requires assistance in fall risks wards. The solution should be able to have adequate lighting at night for effective patrol at designated spots of the ward with poorer visibility (dim areas) or allows visibility at night through specialised camera for TEMI to perform night ward round without causing any disturbance to other sleeping patients (ie. No bright lights or noises)
 +
To predict falls before it happens, here are some non-exhaustive examples:<br>
 +
* Bed exits detection
 +
* Wandering detection
 +
* Fall detection
 +
* Frequency Monitoring
 +
* Sleep Monitoring
 +
There should be an alert sent to Nursing main counter or send notifications to alert Nursing staff of the above detections, especially during night time. This is to ensure the patients safety at night time when the ward lights may be dim and patient may requires assistance. 
 +

''' Project 8: Clinical Faculty Academic and Promotion Database System'''
 +
<br>SingHealth is an Academic Medical Centre and the cornerstones of Academic Medicine rest upon Clinical Services, Education and Research.<br>
  
Project Title: Brachy Educators: Patient Education
+
At Division of Medicine, we are the largest clinical division in Singapore General Hospital and houses the most number of doctors. As a teaching hospital, Division of Medicine is the main site for medical student postings from Duke-NUS Medical School, Lee Kong Chian Medical School and Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine and hosting of medical residency programmes. Academic activities such as improvement, innovation, education and research, are crucial in developing our clinical faculty and residents into clinician innovators, educators and scientists to advance academic medicine. In order to do so, scholarly achievements, academic promotion, appointments and grants must be tracked.<br>
  
Project Description: Traditionally, patient briefing for brachytherapy procedure has been done verbally. We have a briefing checklist to guide us, train juniors and new colleagues before sending them out to brief patients. However, depending on various patient needs, the briefing process for each unique patient/radiation therapist can range from 10minutes to 45minutes. This timing might affect the subsequent patient’s timing and disrupt the clinical schedule for the day. The information relayed during briefing can also be overwhelming for certain patients. Radiation therapists (RTs) often found themselves repeating information that was mentioned during briefing, to patient during their procedure. Thus, we aim to find a solution that allows patient to better understand the briefing information (e.g. video-aid, visual guide etc.) simultaneously allowing RTs to dedicate the briefing time to do more clinical work and attend to more patients promptly.
+
The proposed database system will allow administrators to update information and must develop data visualisation function like a dashboard, able to generate documents based on matching fields and export into various file formats.<br>
  
Deliverables: Video aid/ Visual Guide / VR
+
As an enhancement to the previous project, we would like the system to able to:<br>
 +
* Export certain data from the system into visualisation dashboard or reports (common file formats incl PDF or PPT) or CVs.
 +
* Extract data fields automatically from existing template documents with pre-filled values into the system.
 +
* To be able to do web scraping for the publication listings and indicators (numerical value) into the system.
 +
<br>
  
POC: Sofia Bte Sadimin (NCCS) <sofia.sadimin@nccs.com.sg>
+
Expected deliverables:
 +
* To have an export function that allows us to export the data into visualisation dashboard or reports (common file formats incl PDF or PPT) or CVs.
 +
* To enhance the existing system to be able to read documents (in common file formats) and extract the fields accordingly into system database.
 +
* System would need to be able to store images and documents from individual faculty (e.g., scanned images, photos, consent form, personal particular form), hence creating a P file for respective faculty
 +
* The system will require user account management system with various levels of security access and rights, with frontend and backend functions
 +
* System would need to be able to do web scraping on the publications and indicators (H-index or FWCI scores) provided by the faculty and trace the sources (such as NUS library, Scopus, Google Scholar, Pubmed)
 +
* To include timestamping on the changes made for both the system and individual faculty

''' AIOps using Internal Bot Platform  '''
 
 
 
''Description''
 
 
 
To support the growth of Bots in SGX Intelligent IT Operations Journey, we have conceptualized an “Internal Bot Engine Platform” that will be implemented with a set of common re-usable AWS micro services for the Bot interaction.  Developers who on-board Bots onto the platform only need to focus on the Bot logic.  On-boarded Bots can also interact between themselves.  For example, the health check results returned by a Bot can be passed over to another Bot that interacts with the incident ticketing system to open/close an incident ticket.
 
 
 
For the project, we are looking at expanding the “Internal Bot Platform” to implement “Builder Bot” (aka BBot) to manage the lifecycle of all bots built and deployed in SGX.  Developers will build the bot, and they are known as “Citizen Builders”.  The BBot will perform the following functionalities (but NOT limited to):
 
 
 
(i) Create and Enrolls Webex Bot into SGX Bot Inventory
 
 
 
(ii) Enforce access key expiry and notify bot owners accordingly
 
 
 
(iii) Maintain SGX Bot Service Directory and Bot Metadata
 
 
 
(iv) Provides code templates, help and lifecycle guidance for Citizen Builders
 
 
 
(v) Manage the upload and versioning of “Bot Handlers” (e.g. creating the python based biz logics into lambda functions)
 
 
 
(vi) Provide Bot operational reporting, e.g. usage, cost metrics etc.
 
 
 
(vii) Manage the QA and production dependency, change approval
 
 
 
(viii) Automate the Bot Release Readiness process
 
 
 
(ix) Handles upload and execution of automated test scripts (in the form of input event and expected output event)
 
 
 
The “Internal Bot Platform” will also have an automated self-check for on-boarded Bots to facilitate production level 2 support, ticket management and escalation.
 
 
 
''Learning Opportunities''
 
 
 
In the project, the students will learn about AWS technology, chatbot technology, AI and automation.  Access to AWS online learning platform will also be provided upon request.
 
 
 
''Technical Requirements''
 
 
 
The students should have basic AWS knowledge (preferred) and proficient in Python, Java or Node.js.  They will provision their own AWS account for development.  For integration and testing, the students will be provided the SGX AWS development account.

'' '''Project #1:''' Gnosis - Using natural language to perform data analysis''
 +
<br><br>
 +
'''Introduction and brief description of the current situation'''
 +
Being a data-driven organisation, there are huge volume, velocity and variety of data consumed on daily basis if not in real-time. To support data needs, the organisation has to build and maintain significant mid-tier data infrastructure such as data models and reporting tools.
 +
 
 +
Despite the resources deployed to service today’s need, there is an also consideration for future-needs as the organisation grows. Traditional method of managing mid-tier data infrastructure may not be scalable and may slow business progress. There is a need to bring data closer to the people who needs it in a more agile manner.
 +
 
 +
With "Google" style of performing data query and to be able to extract across various data databases, individuals will be able to perform deep-dive analysis without the need to build dashboards or datamodels. This reduces waiting dependency of other technology teams, and also reduces cost effort in maintaining reporting capabilities. E.g, Typing “What is the 5 year average return of Apple stock?” will return “300%”.
 +
 
 +
'''Objective of the project'''
 +
A working prototype using MS Teams chatbot function against some of the commonly used databases within the organisation. The working prototype should be able to translate simple natural language into various SQL statement for querying against these databases, and to be able to return an answer, a chart or a table. Accuracy of results will be measured for the working prototype. However, it is also expected the model shall self-learn based on the results returned is what the user is requesting for. Hence, over a period of time, the model will not only be more accurate, and also be able to recommend what are the next set of questions that are commonly queried.

 +
 
 +
'''Project 1: WiningRecs'''
 +
<br><br>
 +
BoundbyWine is a wine merchant in Singapore, which focuses on providing customers with a personalised journey of wine exploration. The brand currently does this in a variety of manners - in-person recommendations & wine tastings, wine subscription services, as well as self serve digital wine quizzes.
 +
 
 +
However, the 2 core challenges of BoundbyWine's current operations is that it relies very heavily on the founders to provide recommendations, and does not offer a integrated self-serve experience across multiple touchpoints
 +
 
 +
The purpose of this project is to
 +
1. build a better experience of self serve digital wine quizzes - it is currently catered towards new customers, and does not adequately service existing customers as it does not take into account their previous purchases
 +
2. provide a better integration of these different services through a central feedback loop & customer dashboard that provides insights & recommendations
 +
 
 +
''Project overview''
 +
The overarching vision of the project is to build a product recommendation engine for products that have a high factor of personalisation - products like wine, spirits, perfumes, vitamins. These products require personalisation & curation based on difference customer preferences, and product attributes, to give the customer confidence in their purchases
 +
 
 +
As a project, the goal would be to build a recommendation engine that is able to provide personalised recommendations of wines, based on a customer's preferences - these preferences can come in the form of a quiz or other inputs for new customers, and should rely on customer purchase history & reviews for existing customers.
 +
 
 +
''Expected deliverables :''
 +
 
 +
1. A custom app that is able to be integrated into BoundbyWine's Shopify website via a custom app / plugin - this includes a customer dashboard
 +
2. A robust recommendation engine that is scalable across different product mediums - it may not need to be able to do so immediately, but the implemented architecture is designed with this in mind
 +
3. The engine need not rely on external datafeeds as a deliverable of this project

'''Project 2: Content Creation
 +
'''<br>
 +
The tool is targetted primarily at ecommerce businesses to help reduce the need for marketers & content writers to research & create digital content. The goal is to increase the speed of & accuracy of our online educational content, including product listings, wine guide articles
 +
<br>
 +
* Product Listings - Product descriptions are the main way to convince customers why they should purchase a product, so why not have a good one!
 +
* Blog Posts - Blog posts are an essential tool to provide education to customers, as well as promote the SEO ranking of the ecommerce website. The trouble is that they are time consuming to write, or it can get expensive to hire content writers in volume
 +
<br>
 +
 
 +
Deliverables: <br>
 +
* Create a custom Shopify app that integrates language models such as ChatGPT into Shopify, to act as a virtual assistant to create product listings & blog articles
 +
* Create a system to fine tune language models based on a set of approved data
 +
* Create a process of verifying existing content & propose recommendations to optimise the content, for accuracy, attractiveness, and SEO-ranking

''Project Details''
 +
[[File:SCDF Proposal.docx|thumb]]
 +
<br>
 +
 
 +
1 | CLIENT PARTNER PROFILE
 +
The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) is the national emergency medical services (EMS) organization in Singapore, which currently consists of a fleet of 90 ambulances and responds to more than 210,000 calls to the national emergency “995” hotline annually. As an EMS organization, SCDF also looks into the training and continuous upskilling of frontline paramedics to ensure optimal care delivery and outcomes.<br>
 +
<br>
 +
 
 +
2 | BACKGROUND OF PROJECT
 +
Every paramedic in SCDF must complete various surveys and assessments on a regular basis as a competency assurance mechanism. Prior, there is no system in place to track a paramedic’s performance during the qualification training, and subsequently during certification and re-certification. We worked with some of your fellow students in SMU in early 2022 to develop a prototype of an electronic system which allows more efficient tracking and analysis of performance and empower change in teaching methodology and self-directed learning.
 +
The developed prototype allowed us to:
 +
* systematically tag question to various parameters of interest,
 +
* enable rapid generation of test papers using a set of parameters for purposes of self-directed learning and testing, and
 +
* provide instantaneous feedback to the paramedics during practice.
 +
3 | OBJECTIVES OF PROJECT
 +
We are keen to work with your team to further develop this prototype to a minimally viable product, with a focus on:
 +
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
 +
* Generation of simple performance statistics in the form of a dashboard and test reports
 +
* Refining of the testing functions of the prototype
 +
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE
 +
* Introduction of simple security features to the prototype
 +
We are open to discussion and would be happy to hear your suggestions on further improving the current prototype.

<!--=== Project(s) proposed by EnterpriseSG ===
 +
'' '''Project #1:''' Payment methods for heartland enterprises''
 +
Background
 +
 
 +
Heartland Enterprises (HEs) are business entities operating under HDB flats in towns and neighbourhood centres across Singapore. In alignment with the national drive to digitalize payments to ensure a seamless and coherent payment experience for consumer, EnterpriseSG has been working with different stakeholders and payment providers to accelerate and support the adoption of e-payment solutions by HEs. As a non-partisan enabler, EnterpriseSG does not prescribe a specific solution but encourages enterprises to adopt at least one e-payment solution. Since there are a number of dominant players in the payments industry with sizeable consumer bases, HEs are also motivated to adopt more than 1 solution to provide their consumers with the privilege of choice As of May 2022, more than 80% of HEs have adopted at least one e-payment solution with 31% adopting more than one solution.
 +
 
 +
While moving from pen and paper to digital payment method had alleviate some of their manual reconciliation process, providing more than one solution presented another issue. As the programme and push for e-payment solution matures, HEs face the issue of having to reconcile daily statements received from multiple payment solutions and systems. Through engagements with stakeholders such as IMDA, feedback directly from HEs gathered from Digital Ambassadors and Business Advisors, or direct company engagements, we have gathered that some HEs that have adopted multiple e-payment solutions do struggle with the reconciliation process.
 +
 
 +
Existing Solutions
 +
 
 +
There are existing e-payment solutions that aggregate a set of e-payment partner. Therefore, any transactions paid through the system will be recorded in 1 consolidated statement at the end of the day. For example, SGQR that is currently managed by NETS for Hawker’s Go Digital, or Simply NETS which is a terminal solution integrating a few payment options, and finally POS solutions which integrates payments as part of its function. However, merchants will be restricted to the set of payment options that are available on their systems.
 +
 
 +
If a merchant adopts solutions that are not part of the option available, they could request for POS vendors to integrate the e-payment solutions which is charged per integration at about $300. This allows merchants to accept payment through their existing POS and terminal. Stripe or Hitpay also provides such integration and does not charge for set-up but adds a premium to the MDR at 3% for GrabPay integration.
 +
 
 +
However, integration of payments in one POS only simplifies the reconciliation at the shop level. Based on different business models, solution providers might not partner POS solutions but would still charge merchants directly. For instance, a payment provider might charge a POS solution provider for the API integration but still charge the MDR directly to the merchants rather than only charging the POS solution provider which allows all payments to be integrated and be reconciled by the POS solution provider. Therefore, merchants will still receive more than 1 invoice at the end of the month and this requires more time for accountants to reconcile any errors.
 +
A model where merchants only interface with 1 aggregator is much like NETS’s role as the acquirer for Hawker’s Go Digital where all payments go through NETS rather than individual e-payment providers.
 +
While merchants with large enough operations and transactions could justify an expenditure on an integrated ERP:
 +
1. Merchants onboard POS solutions and subsequently request for integration might still not be able to fully automate and centralize their backend reconciliation.
 +
2. Merchants that are smaller with only 1-2 outlets but accepting multiple e-payment solutions will still need to have to deal with multiple invoices during backend reconciliation.
 +
 
 +
Productivity improvements
 +
 
 +
Currently, enterprises have to conduct end of day settlements at the shop level and backend reconciliation by the accountant or finance department. At the shop level, sales executives will usually generate the day’s sales report from their POS and match the total figure with amounts from the different terminals and the cash remaining in the POS. If there are any discrepancies, shop managers will usually flag these errors to their finance departments. Outlet closing usually takes about 15 mins every day for each outlet.
 +
 
 +
Larger merchants with a finance department will conduct daily reconciliation by comparing POS sales reports and their bank statements or e-payment statements received from their vendors. The finance department will ensure that the correct amount is being paid by each payment solution provider and that this tallies with the sales report as well. Finance departments will usually have an excel sheet with formulas to convert the gross sales amounts into nett amounts after the deduction of MDRs. 
 +
Should there be any discrepancies, finance department will download the respective e-payment statement (e.g. NETS MConnect, Credit card statements upon request, or DBS Max for PayNow payments) and try to identify this amount line-by-line. An example of a discrepancies as listed below:
 +
1. When there are surpluses in cash, this could mean that payments were made in cash but not logged into the POS as cash. Payment might have been wrongly tagged as an e-payment.
 +
2. When there is a deficit in cash, a possible scenario could be a wrong entry of amount e.g. receiving $23 but entered as $33.
 +
3. E-payments could also be wrongly tagged which leads to discrepancies because of differences in MDR charges.
 +
 
 +
Settlement is completed as long as the nett amount tallies with bank statement after deducting charges. If there are no issues, this process would usually take about 30mins daily. Discrepancies usually happens when there is cash that is unaccounted for in the cash register. This usually happens because the payment mode is not linked to the POS and cashiers have to key the amount and payment mode manually. When there are discrepancies, backend settlement can be extended to 1-2 hours.
 +
 
 +
For a shop that has 4 outlets and 5 e-payment solutions, this would mean 20 lines of payments in the company’s financial statements.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
Scope of project
 +
 
 +
An automation of this settlement process could involve
 +
a. Interviews with merchants to understand the operational process of backend settlement.
 +
b. Automation of nett sales amount calculations and comparisons with respective payments within bank statement or relevant e-payment statements.
 +
c. Automation of discrepancy flagging and identification of erroneous line payment
 +
d. Automation of reconciliation e.g. prediction of correct entry from erroneous line payment such that total amounts tally
 +
e. Basic analytics of the sales report e.g. trend of sales, most popular and least popular SKU,
 +
 
 +
 
 +
Considerations and technical details
 +
 
 +
1. Solutions should be scalable as much as possible and be easily adaptable to different merchants.
 +
2. Merchants mention that statements are usually received in excel format.
 +
3. A minor consideration mentioned by merchants is that sometimes, discrepancies happen because of rounding issues e.g. difference of a few cents.

'' '''Project #1:''' CRE Insights''
 +
<br><br>
 +
We are currently looking to build a database of Commercial Real Estate in the region (SG, MY, VN, TH, ID) with SG & MY being the priority. To enable this, we are exploring efficient, scalable ways to populate this dataset and keep it up to date. This calls for creative ways to obtain attribute data associated to the commercial properties, as well as potential engineering skills to implement those creative solutions.
 +
<br><br>
 +
The challenges we are facing are time and creativity. With regards to the creativity; and issue is for example when direct data is not available in a scalable matter, we will need to look for what scalable proxies are available that we can use to establish the same insights, and how we can implement them.
 +
<br><br>
 +
The deliverable is a dataset that is (as much as possible) automatically kept up to date.
 +
<br><br>
 +
It would require either standalone or a combination of data analytics/ data engineering / geospatial analysis/ operations automation. As part of this project, we would look to build one database for MY and SG commercial properties.
 +
<br><br>
 +
There are three key components:<br>
 +
1. Establish a database list of all commercial properties in Malaysia and Singapore (classified into categories; e.g. retail, industrial, etc.)<br>
 +
2. Enrich the list of commercial properties with attributes (see examples below)<br>
 +
o Part of this data will come from PropertyGuru, part of it will have to be obtained from public sources<br>
 +
o Key to success how to collect it in a scalable manner, and automatically keep it up to date<br>
 +
3. Create a GIS layer that holds polygons for these commercial properties<br>
 +
<br><br>
 +
Subject to the skills of the teams, we can include/ exclude the steps above, but the main item we would like the teams to work on is item 2.
 +
A selection of envisioned attributes:<br>
 +
- Lot/ building ownership data (PG has transaction history available)<br>
 +
- Transaction history (PG has transaction history available)<br>
 +
- Building/ lot info <br>
 +
o Size<br>
 +
o Floors<br>
 +
o Land size<br>
 +
o Function (mall/ hotel/ office/ residential/ condominium)<br>
 +
o Materials used for construction<br>
 +
o Floorplans (e.g. from Mall website/ construction plans)<br>
 +
o Owner<br>
 +
o Ultimate owner<br>

The platform performs video capture and analysis on machine vision cameras and sensors to analyse human movement qualitatively and quantitatively. The platform allows manual analysis of movement and also utilises a markerless tracking algorithms to identify and track specific body landmarks. Although the platform’s functionalities are managing the data capture and analysis very well, users felt that the Graphical User Interface (GUI) is not “intuitive” thereby takes a longer time to learn and not fully able to exploit all the functionalities. The project team is to i) review the GUI design of this platform and assess its usability with qualitative and quantitative methods and ii) to propose a new GUI design that with quantifiable benefits and improvements.<br><br>
 +
 +
Expected deliverables:<br>
 +
''Qualitative Analysis.'' Use existing GUI design standards i.e. Nielsens, Microsoft to identify areas in which the current GUI are strong / weak in terms of usability. Potential weakness could be i) difficulty in accessing software functionality and ii) making frequent unintended mistakes to perform a task. The analysis should provide a matrics accompanied by recommendations for design improvements.<br>
 +
''Quantitative Analysis.'' Develop a GUI evaluation methodology with users who are new to the platform and to measure the usability performance of the current GUI. The method should take into consideration i) the user’s ability to navigate in a totally new software, ii) native language and iii) age.<br>

'''Project 1: Resume Parser AI Evolution'''
 +
 +
Kinobi provides campus management systems to universities.One of our core products is career management features. As a part of a campus management system, the objective is to help students prepare for their dream job. One of the features from career management is the resume builder. <br>
 +
In this module, student create their resume in pre-defined format so no need to re-format, the objective is to save students' time while creating a professional resume. Currently students usually already have a resume, and they wish to import their resumes  into our platform. We already have the feature to allow import the PDF but not not at its ideal state (the mapping is not matched, data not detected, etc, hopefully in this project can help Kinobi to improve the function.<br>
 +
Deliverables: <br>
 +
Create a resume parser through the use of AI, regular expression or a sweet mix of both. This parser has to accommodate for a realistic spectrum of resume document type & copywriting<br>
 +
Example #1: Different Resume Document Types<br>
 +
* Student A may use a Canvas generated resume, which is in an image format.
 +
* Student B may use a PDF but the words are not well structured
 +
Example #2: Different Copywriting across different sections of a resume<br>
 +
* To describe their working experiences, Student A uses Work Experience<br>
 +
* Student B uses Experience<br>
 +
Example #3: Different styles of a resume<br>
 +
* Student A uses 3 columns to segment their resumes<br>
 +
* Student B uses 2 columns<br>
 +
System is able to identify email, company name, date, country, etc<br>
 +
The resume parser can mapping the data to the right object (to our fields of resume) after uploaded into the platform<br>
 +
You can see all the fields of resume builder here https://app.kinobi.asia/resume<br>
 +
The solution needs as little maintenance as possible.<br>
 +
Ideally: the solution can self learn from its own set of data. Eg. In University A, there are 10,000 students. The more students upload their resumes, the more sample data the system can use as sample data. You have to consider how Kinobi/System itself can classify & train the data (Consider supervised training). <br>-->

Instructions on sponsor engagement

The information has been updated in March 2023. As many teams may be approaching sponsors, sponsors will discuss with the various teams and decide which team to work with. If your team has already confirmed a project with a sponsor, please let the faculty manager know so that we can update the website for other students.

For self sourced sponsors

Teams are encouraged to source sponsors from internships, SMU-X modules and personal contacts. The deck here can be shared with the sponsors to clarify any roles and responsibilities with them and request them to contact the faculty manager at kiruthikar@smu.edu.sg for any clarifications File:Sponsor information deck.pptx
