Photobleaching of Methylene Blue In Thermal Lenses
My work on photothermal spectroscopy with Dr. Keller focused on the photobleaching of Methylene Blue, an important biological dye. We explored lens formation, the creation of a thermal gradient across a focused beam in a colored solution, and investigated how both continuous and pulsed lasers influence the chemistry involved. Upon irradiation with visible and ultraviolet light, Methylene Blue can be photo-reduced to its leuco (colorless) form. This bleach of the solution results in a decrease in absorption and a lessening of the thermal gradient. We probed both the lens formation and its weakening persistence with a second laser that crossed the reaction zone and encountered a changing index of refraction due to the thermal gradient
The Evolution of the Translations of Virgil’s “The Aeneid”: An Analytical Comparison of Robert Faglesand John Dryden\u27s Translations Using Sentiment Analysis and Topic Modeling
This research poster aims to explore two English translations of the ancient Roman epic “The Aeneid” written by the poet Virgil. The two versions that were chosen for analysis are John Dryden’s translation from 1697 compared with Robert Fagles’ translation from 2006. This poster seeks to use sentiment analysis and word frequency analysis tools to analytically compare the two versions of the epic. From the results, the older translation appeared to use more formal wording and “dramatic” storytelling structures compared to a more “accurate” rendition of the epic translated using modern language. The sentiment analysis result also demonstrates greater sentiment shifts in the older translation. As a result, newer translation can be concluded as a more direct approach to translating as opposed to one that is more poetic and focused on emotions
AI on the Air: Analyzing AI Sentiment in US News Reporting
This project examines sentiment surrounding mentions of artificial intelligence within news broadcasts of the three most prominent American news channels: FOX, CNN, and CNBC. Sentiment analysis was conducted on closed captioning data from news clips that mentioned “artificial intelligence” for each of the news channels from 2012 to 2024. This project seeks to evaluate sentiment as mentions of artificial intelligence increase and compare the respective sentiment for each news channel. While clear sentiment differences from the beginning of the time period to the end could not be determined, there was a difference in the overall sentiment trends for each news channel

Five Reports related to the Artist Zhan Wang from Taiwan 四篇来自台湾关于艺术家展望的报道
There are four reports from Taiwan which directly or indirectly mentioned the sculptor, Zhan Wang. They comes from different sources, including, 雄獅美術 (Xiong Shi Mei Shu), 民生報 (Min Sheng Bao) and 臺灣時報 (Taiwan Times). Most of the report focus on two exhibition, namely 海峽兩岸雕塑藝術交流展 (Cross Strait Sculpture Exchange Exhibition), 雕塑1994 (Sculpture 1994), in which the artist is a key participant.
