If terms like Kalman filtering, normalized difference vegetation index and recursive algorithms sound like a foreign language to you, then you’re probably not watching math videos for fun.
Kamal Albousafi, a senior math major from Sioux Falls, does. “I love math,” said the outgoing Albousafi, who does admit to being a bit nerdy when it comes to math. “The deductive power to use information and data to gain insight and understanding drew me to math and statistics,” he said.
Albousafi found his nerdiness very helpful this summer as a Research Experience for Undergraduates program participant at South Dakota State University. Working under math faculty Hossein Moradi and Jung-Han Kimn, Albousafi used satellite images and dynamic modeling to predict crop health.Two new department heads come aboard
