The data collected and code written in this project lent itself to the contributions to Pyrfume, a framework of olfactory datasets and modules.

Future/Challenges/Learnings: This project gave me valuable insight into the predictive power of machine learning algorithms, along with challenges like ensuring a high-quality, complete dataset. I want to continue exploring perception by combining perceptual research with interactive tools that help visualize and reflect on the connection between our inner and outer worlds. I hope to gain more experience in integrating signals, sensors, and data into hardware systems to create well-informed perceptual experiences.
