I am gonna record two periods in here. Monday we worked on and rewrote our proposal. The MSI was all wiped off.

B period: Unfortunately, I had to download everything again for this period. I downloaded OPENCV (I got this from Oliver Grayson who used this project in summer to accomplish Facial recognition). I was planning on to continue my Tensorflow career, a program invented by Google had an enormous potential and unimaginative future. Tensorflow uses pixels to indentify pictures and structures. OPENCV uses colors and shapes (patterns and features) to recognize photos. Technically, Tensorflow would be much faster and more accurate than OpenCV. Last year, I completed the first stage of Tensorflow that is able to indentify numbers quickly with more than 90 percents accuracy. I believed that OpenCv can train my skill before I offically entered the next stage of Tensorflow, because both of them are based on Python Language.

D period: I just joined another project currently which is left by Luigi who graduated from HPA and passionated in Earthquake Study. To start this project, I decided to study the basic information and knowledge about earthquakes at first; meanwhile Dr. Bill suggested me to investigate P-wave and S-wave. These two waves transfer in different direction and various features.(for example: P-wave is the fastest wave in all earthquake wave.)

We observed a new big earthquake happened recently in Italy. Italy, earthquakes happened frequently over there, just had been through a 6.2 earthquake this week. I recorded the data, time and graph of it.

Here is a picture from Wiki in P-wave section.
