Deciding on Proposal Project topic

Submitted by nkantorovich on Thu, 10/17/2019 - 19:34

When deciding on a topic for my research proposal, I began with going to the Umass Amherst Libraries page. While on this page, I thought about the different kinds of projects that I could construct. I wanted to choose a topic that I would be able to replicate and write a methods for. I decided to search for eye colors in populations. I thought it might be interesting to do a proposal project analyzing the percentage of certain eye colors in the Umass population. I searched through the given options and looked for an article that had a literature review. I chose an article called, “A pupil center detection algorithm based on eye color pixels differences.” I felt that this topic would be relevant to my research proposal. I clicked on the link and was directed to a page on the Umass libraries with the entire article.
