+# Project Description
+
+<!-- Add a short paragraph describing the project. -->
+
+
+We will be adding anomaly detection algorithms to clinical data and MRI data in the AMP SCZ project. 
+
+
+
+## Objective
+
+<!-- Describe here WHAT you would like to achieve (what you will have as end result). -->
+
+
+1. We would like to achieve MRI QC reports that accurately correlate to human QC ratings, in addition to uncovering new QC rules for clinical forms using machine learning anomaly detection algorithms.
+
+
+
+
+## Approach and Plan
+
+<!-- Describe here HOW you would like to achieve the objectives stated above. -->
+
+
+1. For the clinical data, we will use DBSCAN to search for correlations between every variable and flag cases that deviate the most.
+2. For the MRI data, we will artificially add artifacts to clean MRI scans and train a neural network to rank the severity.
+
+
+
+## Progress and Next Steps
+
+<!-- Update this section as you make progress, describing of what you have ACTUALLY DONE.
+     If there are specific steps that you could not complete then you can describe them here, too. -->
+
+
+1. Describe specific steps you **have actually done**.
