Build a system that recognizes song of birds.
Note that the student is expected to build their own collection of training and testing data. HKBWS Bird Call page is a good starting point. There are CDs of bird calls in the market as well.
Experimentation using systems such as Audacity, PureData, Octave, Mathematica, or Matlab is expected.
The system is best implemented in an operating-system independent way.
Build a system that recognizes and labels the speakers in a recorded radio talk show or phone-in show.
Preferably, the system should be language-indpendent.
A more advanced version of the system should be able to run in stream mode and takes live speech, generating output or as the input is analyzed, and possibly correcting earlier outputs when necessary.

Given the historical data of a number of stock or index prices at different points in time, design an algorithm that would predict their values in the future.
Some factors the algorithm can take into the consideration include the day in month, weekday of day, time of day, various financial indicators, correlations between data from different time series.
Time series data of more than 30 stocks and/or indices are expected to be analyzed.
