with the question, four in-context examples of answers, and the corresponding codes and instructed it to generate thecode(s) for the new answer instance. The in-context examples for GPT-4 prompt are drawn fromthe training split of the manually-coded dataset. We finetuned the Mixtral of Experts (MoE) [30]model using input and target pairs derived from the manually-coded training datasets. Thistrained model was then prompted with new test inputs, and the model-generated coded sequencewas evaluated against the manually coded target sequence. We evaluated both models on a testset of around 140 samples for each thermodynamics question. Using manual and languagemodel-based coding, we aim to answer two research questions: 1. What aspects of student

participant is not actually swimming any particular stroke. Prior methods of conductingstudies would record some level of inactive data (e.g. participant walking to the pool), whichwould then have to be parsed and removed manually. We can also record flip turns with this app,which also allows us to avoid manually removing flip turns in order to preserve data integrity.This application was developed through prior work done with Powell [55].Data Processing And Feature ExtractionIn order to extract features and train a classifier using our accelerometer data, we first need toclean the data, extract features, and present it to our classifier(s) in a .csv file format, which is afile format that WEKA, a machine learning library, accepts as input for

Toaccount for this potential, we adapted and included five items across five different identity-axes(race/ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, (dis)ability, and socioeconomic status) from Bahnsonet al.’s (2022) work on discrimination in engineering graduate student experiences.Comfort and Team Inclusion (19 items)We believe feelings of discrimination and differences in belonging are also seen through students’comfort and inclusion on their team.

influenced by. Like individual socioeconomics,these characteristics reflect hierarchical social and economic ranking amongst people. Importantly,they reflect Keynes (1936) argument that socioeconomics are group mentalities that organizepeople’s positions amongst society. Keynes (1936) illustrated that individuals with similar incomeslive together (household) or near one another (neighborhood/school) and likely have a similaroccupation. Given these features, we consider the following relational socioeconomic factors:1. Family/household income, occupation, and education are representations of the total, combinatory income(s), prestige, or educational status of the household. Household socioeconomic status has also been inferred based on what

ConclusionThis paper presents preliminary work of the implementation of object detection on Raspberry Pi for asenior design project. We run a mobile deep learning model, SSD-MobileNet, on Raspberry Pi todetect various objects. Preliminary valudation results demonstrate the effectiveness of thisimplementation. Moreover, the on-going work is to improve weapon detection. Future work will focuson completing comprehensive and systematical validation on weapon detection in different testingscenarios.

A 3-feet-long integratedPZT strip of 18 thin-film PZT cells was placed in the middle of the EGP. The prototype of the EGPwas tested using an output load of 7.5 kΩ. A bicycle with a rider weighing a total of about 142pounds served as the mechanical pressure source for the test. The tested PZT cells produced anaverage of 68 VDC, and the energy of the DCPR was 616.53 mW/s for the rider riding the bike onthe EGP.

In somecases, steps three and four are skipped, and only one round of interviews is completed. The faculty hiring process is fraught with bias, including racial bias [1], gender bias inletters of recommendation [2], and search committee members seeking to hire people whoseresearch areas are most similar to their own [3]. Hiring people similar to oneself extends beyondresearch areas. Many search committees look for candidates who would be a good “fit”(generally, scientifically, programmatically) [4, 5]. However, “fit” is highly subjective and opento the evaluator’s personal biases

This is an especially critical feature given that keytechnical macro-thematic factors used for traditional engineering design may be developed basedon specific group(s) of our society.

remains a dominantideology in public opinion, professional practice, academic policy, and law in the U. S. today [1].The legal definition of disability in the U. S. exemplifies the medical model. Section 3 of theAmericans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and its 2008 amendment defines disability, with respectto an individual, as “(A) a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more ofthe major life activities of such individual; (B) a record of such an impairment; or (C) beingregarded as having such an impairment” [34]. The second model, called the social model ofdisability, emerged in the late 20th century [15] and has quickly become a widespreadepistemology in disability studies [35]. The social model posits disability as a
