Decision Forests

in C#

An implementation of the decision forest machine learning algorithm. The algorithm reads in a dataset and "learns" patterns in the data by building multiple random decision trees, and then classifies test instances by combining the results from all trees, aka the forest.

Naive Bayes

in C#

An implementation of the naive bayes machine learning algorithm. The algorithm reads in a dataset and "learns" patterns used to classify new instances. Patterns are learned by computing probabilities that a given attribute's value belongs to a certain class. The class with the highest probability of all its attribute's values is chosen as the predicted outcome.

Mancala Minimax

in C#

An implementation of the minimax and alpha-beta minimax artificial intelligence algorithms. By "looking ahead" the program can generate optimal moves based on the current playing board for the game of mancala by minimizing your losses and maximizing your gains. The static board evaluator greatly affects the outcome of the algorithm and is extremely difficult to tune correctly for mancala.

Dynamic Maze Solver

in Java

A program which uses an adjacency list representation to solve mazes with collapsible walls by linking together cells that don't have an unbreakable wall between them. The program then finds the least costing path from a maze file using Dijkstra's algorithm. *This program requires the mazeio.jar file to run correctly using graphics

Word Ladder Game

in Java

A program which uses an adjacency list representation to play the "Ladders Game" by linking together words that are one letter appart using a graph. The program then finds the shorest path from a user inputted start word to the end word using breadth first search.
