VCU College of Engineering is proud to offer three NSF Summer REU programs in three areas: Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science and Pharmaceutical Engineering. The 10-week program begins in mid- to late May and culminate in a Symposium in August where students present their research to the College and University administration. This collection presents student posters from the programs.

NLP@VCU: Crop Characteristic Extraction Framework
Cora Lewis, Bridget McInnes, and Getiria Onsongo
We developed a crop characteristic extraction framework. Starting from a custom SpaCy named entity recognition model, we added pre-trained word embeddings and a part-of-speech based entity expansion post-processing step. Then, we implemented an evaluation framework that functioned as a 5-fold cross validation wrapper for SpaCy custom training. Preliminary results showed improvement in the extraction framework after these additions.
