Lucas S.S.<\/h3>\r\nFrom image recognition to natural language processing to genetic research, learning algorithms that are capable of using past information to model patterns have become a major part of modern life whether the average person realizes it or not. In this project, a novel deep learning algorithm that is capable of producing a sophisticated musical accompaniment to a given melody is presented.\r\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\r\n<table class=\"award_table\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<th>Award<\/th>\r\n<th>Value<\/th>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>Challenge Award - Information\r\nSenior\r\nSponsor: Youth Science Canada<\/td>\r\n<td><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr class=\"alt\">\r\n<td>Excellence Award - Senior\r\nGold Medal\r\nSponsor: Youth Science Canada<\/td>\r\n<td>$250<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>Dalhousie University Faculty of Science Entrance Scholarship\r\nSenior Gold Medallist - $5000 Entrance Scholarship\r\nSponsor: Dalhousie University, Faculty of Science<\/td>\r\n<td>$5000<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n\r\n<tr class=\"alt\">\r\n<td>UBC Science (Vancouver) Entrance Award\r\nSenior Gold Medallist - $4000 Entrance Scholarship\r\nSponsor: The University of British Columbia (Vancouver)<\/td>\r\n<td>$4000<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>University of Manitoba Entrance Scholarship\r\nSenior Gold Medallist - $5000 Entrance Scholarship\r\nSponsor: University of Manitoba<\/td>\r\n<td>$5000<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n\r\n<tr class=\"alt\">\r\n<td>University of Ottawa Entrance Scholarship\r\nSenior Gold Medallist - $4,000 Entrance Scholarship\r\nSponsor: University of Ottawa<\/td>\r\n<td>$4000<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>Western University Scholarship\r\nGold Medallist - $4000 Entrance Scholarship\r\nSponsor: Western University<\/td>\r\n<td>$4000<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/table>\r\n<h3>Biography<\/h3>\r\nMy name is Sascha Bodak. In the future I hope to become a Software Engineer. My hobbies include reading, programming, and writing music. My love for music and computer science inspired this science fair project. I would urge anyone interested in starting their own project to find a great mentor who can guide you through the important steps required to bring your idea to life.","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-11935","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO Pro 5.0.4 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"max-image-preview:large\" \/>\n\t<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/tvsef.ca\/?page_id=11935\" \/>\n\t\t<meta name=\"generator\" content=\"All in One SEO Pro (AIOSEO) 5.0.4\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Youth Science London\/Thames Valley Science &amp; Engineering Fair - Grade 4-12 Science Engineering Fair.
