Algorithm Exploration for Your Potential FYP

Objective: Since some of you have not finalised your project title yet, this task will help you
explore and identify a potential algorithm for your FYP.
Task Instructions:
✅ Pick any algorithm and briefly explain how it works.
✅ Identify one type of data it works with. - (structured, unstructured, images, text, etc.)
✅ Give one real-world example where it’s used.
✅ Submission Deadline - Submit your report by the end of the lab session.
💡 Tip: If you're unsure about a specific project, explore broadly! This exercise will help you
gain a better understanding of algorithms before deciding on your final topic.

Suggested Algorithms for FYP Exploration (only suggestion. you could explore moreeeee,
don't restrict to these options)
1️⃣ Machine Learning & Data Science
🔹 Decision Tree – Works well for classification problems (e.g., diagnosing diseases, student
performance prediction).
🔹 Random Forest – Improves accuracy over a single decision tree (e.g., credit risk
assessment, fraud detection).
🔹 K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) – Simple but effective for pattern recognition (e.g.,
recommendation systems, handwriting recognition).
🔹 Support Vector Machine (SVM) – Good for high-dimensional classification (e.g., sentiment
analysis, face recognition).
🔹 Naïve Bayes – Works well with text classification (e.g., spam detection, fake news
detection).
🔹 Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) – Used in deep learning applications (e.g., stock price
prediction, autonomous driving).

2️⃣ Computer Vision & Image Processing


🖼 Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) – Used for image classification and object detection
(e.g., pneumonia detection, facial recognition).
🖼 YOLO (You Only Look Once) – Real-time object detection (e.g., traffic surveillance,
security systems).
🖼 Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) – Used for pedestrian detection and human
activity recognition.
3️⃣ Natural Language Processing (NLP)
📝 Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) – Great for sequential data (e.g., chatbot responses,
speech-to-text).
📝 Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) – Works well for text prediction (e.g., machine
translation, next-word prediction).
📝 TF-IDF (Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency) – Used for text ranking and
keyword extraction.
📝 BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) – Powerful NLP model
(e.g., question answering, document summarization).

4️⃣ Optimization & Metaheuristic Algorithms


⚡ Genetic Algorithm (GA) – Used for optimization problems (e.g., scheduling, route
optimization).
⚡ Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) – Inspired by swarm intelligence (e.g., hyperparameter
tuning, clustering).
⚡ Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) – Applied in pathfinding and logistics (e.g., shortest route
problems, delivery systems).

5️⃣ Cybersecurity & Cryptography
