HIV Assure | We aim to develop a point-of-care test for people living with HIV to confirm that their virus levels remain undetectable, thus assuring that they are at no risk of transmitting HIV.
(un)CircularCO2 | An (un)circularity accounting model for CO₂:
worksite for neural network model training data and case study design. This worksite supports development of a CO₂ estimator and a CO₂ production-consumption chain predictor, in order to re-assess the use of CO₂ across global supply chains.In the view that the rise in CO₂ emissions has been exponential, this project engages the exponential growth of artificial intelligence models to work in concert with individual action, mediated by a circularity accounting model. The model architecture is based on a deep learning neural network in several modules. Training of the network modules can be designed using the graph tool on this page. Existing data from case studies may be opened in the graph editor.
