Interdisciplinary Undergraduate Research with Focus on Hyperspectral / Multispectral Imagery
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper introduces a framework for the development of an interdisciplinary research approach in Computer Science / Computer Engineering education. Given the difficulty level required in many current research directions as well as the curriculum constraints on the number and type of courses that need to be taken by CS / CE undergraduate students, it is a challenge to attract them to participate in interdisciplinary research projects. At the same time, developments throughout scientific disciplines rely on computation based solutions. Our approach is to identify several factors that need to be addressed when designing an interdisciplinary project that relates to CS / CE, such that it corresponds to the current curriculum restrictions. Based on these factors we present several examples of projects related to hyperspectral images, a type of data increasingly used in geosciences. We believe the experience described here can be extended to other areas of interdisciplinary research.
