# Capstone Meeting #10 -- 7/5/2020

## Agenda
* Updates from last week's todos
* Reviewing on Phase Plans from last meeting:
    * [Reference from last meeting](https://github.com/relientm96/capstone2020/blob/master/meeting-logs/GroupLogs/log-09.md)
* In-Depth Phase 1 Discussion
* To-Do's for next week

## Last Week ToDo's
* [Yick] Set up and run different models using LSTM
* [Team] Set up and run different models (in terms of generalization, accuracy and ease of use)
* [Team] Team research 
* [Team] Finding out different models to use (not urgent)
* Liase with AusLan communities
    * Matthew --> Unimelb 
    * Yick --> Auslan / Other Unis
* Start Collecting Datasets for Phase 1
    * Web Scrapping using libraries
    * Manually downloading for personal tests
* Approach lecturers or experts for help (if needed)

## Updates from Last Week
* Leave to Yick to liase with communities.
* Yick has a list of computer vision papers

## continue
* [team] run other frameworks - colba/keras to implement the models;

## Phase 1 Discussion
* Defining which words to focus on?
    * Let's start alphabets, fingerspelling
* How do we collect above data?
    * [Auslan Corpus](https://elar.soas.ac.uk/Collection/MPI55247)
    * [UCI Machine Learning Repository](http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Australian+Sign+Language+signs)
* Model (Big rabbit holes)
    * HMM
    * Dynamic Time Warping
    * CNN 
    * RNN + CNN
    * LSTM
    * attention based encoder-decoder (transformer)
* Small rabbit hole;
    * Transfer learning, 
* Implementing above models and testing on our datasets. 
* How do we generate more data from current data?
    * Adding noise to our current datasets for OpenPose
* reminder - not necessary sign language, could be gesture/action

## ToDo for Next Few Weeks
* [Tsz Kiu] Setting up data uploading protocol (Saturday)
    * [team] Scrape whatever you could (alphabets + fingerspelling)
        * you could record yourself!
    * [rabbit hole] 
            * Annotating data
    * [others] 
* [Matt] Figure out implementation side of system for models
* [Yick] Liasing, with Auslan Communities (by wednesday; 13 may, 2020)
