| Education | In university, we typically have low attendance to lectures, and we have the hypothesis that students who attend lectures on average to better during exams. We want to stimulate attendance and test the hypothesis. | We can track attendance through pictures taken by the security camera in class, or by tracking bluetooth/wifi addresses of student mobile phones in class. Exam data is already available in the university database. | In case we track security camera images - we need to store a few (5-10) photographs during class (unstructured data), and then use AI to identify faces of students (convert data to structured form). | We can compute average attendance data for each student, and see if there is any correlation with exam grades. We will talk more about correlation in [probability and statistics](../../04-stats-and-probability/README.md) section. In order to stimulate student attendance, we can publish the weekly attendance rating on school portal, and draw prizes among those with highest attendance. |

| Transport |One of the major challenges in transportation is reducing waiting times. Therefore, our goal is to establish a bus schedule that optimizes fuel consumption and ensures timely arrivals at bus stops.| We can track attendance through pictures taken by the security camera in class, or by tracking bluetooth/wifi addresses of student mobile phones in class.
