This article was featured in the Annual Engineering Research Report (2019-2020).
During his undergraduate experience, Grant Steans balanced the worlds of band and coding. After joining Florida A&M’s Marching 100 during fall 2014 playing the trombone, he spent the next four years performing and gaining leadership, becoming the section leader and, eventually, band president.
Now as a first year master’s student, Steans’ thesis is machine learning, which is the study of algorithms for artificial intelligence. He is testing different training models for AI applications to determine how the models are affected by data bias (different data inputs) which affects the most well-known AI such as Google’s search engine.
