Tyner Academy Students Present ‘Friendship Detectors’ Built with Machine Learning at World Quantum Day Celebration
The students at Tyner Academy had the chance to showcase their innovative projects made through machine learning on Tuesday. As part of the six-week-long World Quantum Day observance, 12 students from the EPB Future Ready Institute of Technology and Networking at Tyner Academy presented their “Friendship Detectors” that were built using machine learning technology.
EPB’s J. Ed Marston emphasized the importance of nurturing both young and older individuals with the necessary technology skills for future job opportunities in the quantum industry. He highlighted that the utility has been a sponsor and participant in the curriculum at Tyner Academy, with their main goal being to bridge the connection between the development of new technology that Chattanooga can contribute to economically and ensuring there is a skilled workforce available to take on these jobs.
Marston praised the educational opportunities like the showcase at Tyner Academy, which help students apply their knowledge of machine learning and other tech-related skills in real-world scenarios. This hands-on experience prepares them for future job opportunities in the ever-evolving technology industry.
The students at Tyner Academy were excited to share their projects with others and gain valuable feedback from experts in the field. They worked tirelessly to develop their “Friendship Detectors,” which used machine learning algorithms to analyze social media data and identify patterns that could help people make more informed decisions about their relationships. The project was a huge success, and it received positive feedback from all who saw it.
Overall, this event was an excellent opportunity for students to learn about machine learning and its applications in real life while also gaining valuable experience in presenting their projects to others. It was a win-win situation for everyone involved, and it will undoubtedly lead to more exciting projects in the future.
In conclusion, EPB’s J. Ed Marston emphasized that nurturing both young and older individuals with necessary technology skills is crucial for future job opportunities in quantum industry. Students at Tyner Academy had an amazing opportunity to showcase their innovative projects made through machine learning as part of World Quantum Day observance. Their “Friendship Detectors” were a huge success, receiving positive feedback from all who saw them, which will undoubtedly lead to more exciting projects in the future.
