Inspiration
As Actuaries, we are dedicated to accurately estimating different calculations within certain confidence intervals. Rather than doing simple addition problems, we thought it would be fun to train an AI model to 'calculate' different equations.
What it does
The interface is a normal calculator; however, the cAIculator will sometimes get the answer wrong and/or give a confidence interval. For instance, "10 + 8"? "= (17.56, 18.44) with 99% confidence. The idea is that when in the real world, 10 and 8 may not be exact integer inputs, so there is a level of uncertainty that is captured through our model.
How we built it
We used skikit library to build a neural network and fed the model data.
Challenges we ran into
None of us know any programming.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We stayed until submission time.
What we learned
Steven: "I learned skikit" Priscilla: "I learned html, css, and javascript. I also learned that hardwork pays off." Logan: "I learned how to make a github repository."
What's next for cAIculator
Next we will be finishing the implementation of the simple 4 function calculator as well as the way to interact with it on our website. After that, it will include functionality. Finally, it will be the most used incorrect calculator all over the world.
