计算机科学专业学生支持通过人工智能推动零售业创新的研究

At Sheridan, research and innovation go beyond textbooks and classrooms — they come to life through hands-on experiences that empower students to put their knowledge into action.

Through collaborative projects with faculty, industry partners, and Sheridan的发电机’s dedicated 研究中心, students like Tejas Kumar, a third-year student in the 计算机科学荣誉学士学位 program, are gaining invaluable exposure to real-world challenges and impact.

Working with the 应用人工智能中心 (CAAI) alongside 应用科学与技术学院 applied computing program professor Nick Sajadi, Kumar applied his technical skills to a research project supporting industry partner 市场参与, an 安大略-based company that specializes in providing services in sales and merchandising strategy.

该项目旨在通过帮助消费品零售商和制造商大规模地将数据转化为有价值和可操作的见解，从而优化消费品包装行业的零售和销售。 作为一名学生研究员，库马尔支持开发先进的人工智能（AI）和机器学习（ML）创新，包括算法和数据科学方法，以揭示零售销售数据中不可能通过人工分析检测到的持续模式，然后生成人工智能预测以优化零售策略。

在一年半的时间里，库马尔不仅在数据分析和机器学习方面打下了坚实的技术基础，而且还提高了他的沟通和组织能力。 这段研究经历也重塑了他的职业轨迹。

“研究 projects are more than academic exercises — they're a chance to develop critical, transferrable skills while contributing to meaningful innovations.”

– Computer Science student Tejas Kumar

“Initially, I was focused on software development. After working on this project, I’ve discovered a true passion for data science,” said Kumar. “研究 projects are more than academic exercises – they're a chance to develop critical, transferable skills while contributing to meaningful innovations. You get to apply classroom theory in a practical context and prepare yourself for the demands of the industry.”

When asked what advice he’d give to fellow Sheridan students considering research, Tejas is enthusiastic.

“Explore the Sheridan Works module on Sheridan Central. It’s full of opportunities to connect with the research ecosystem. And don’t hesitate to speak with professors – you never know where those conversations might lead.”
