Since the perfumers are expensive on salaries, we are planning to leverage AI to create fragrance formulas. So we can avoid high expenditure on payroll as well as speed up the creation process. Applications of AI technology include recommendation algorithms, AI customer service, formula creation based on customer's preferences and regulation compliance check.

We would like to collaborate with students to apply the latest artificial intelligence (AI), large language model (LLM) and machine learning (ML) techniques to our existing dataset. Students will develop an AI / ML model related to any of the aforementioned applications.

This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

• Conducting background research on our existing products and the dataset.
• Analyzing our current dataset.
• Researching the latest AI / ML techniques, such as DeepSeek R1, and how they could be applied to our data.
• Developing an AI / ML model that provides unique outcomes or insights into our data.
• Providing multiple solutions that can be applied to solve the same problem.

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

• Understanding of the available dataset
• Understanding of the latest AI / ML techniques
• Identification of ways in which AI / ML can be applied to our company

Bonus steps would include:

• Providing multiple versions of potential models

Final deliverables should include

• A final report on the dataset, the problem solved, methodologies and approaches, outcomes and results, and recommended next steps.
• Source materials such as code and workbooks.
• Applications of AI inserted into our website platform and operation successfully
