Course Project

Project Deadlines

Project proposals (one per group): Feb 7th at 5pm.
Project presentations: March 28th and April 4th in class.
Project report (one per group): April 11th at 11:59pm.

Groups

Collaboration: We strongly prefer 3-4 registered student per group, but we do permit groups with fewer students. Doing something related to your research is fine, but your class project should be distinct and you should be able to isolate your contributions to the project from those of any collaborators outside of the class.

Proposal

15% of project

Due Feb 14th at 5pm. Note the proposal should be at most 3 pages, one per group. Clearly state the following:

Problem you wish to tackle
Description of data you plan to use
Proposed approach and methods
Evaluation plan
Timeline
What each student in the group will do.

We understand that much of this would be preliminary at this stage, but these details are important for us to ensure that you are on the right track. Submit proposals on Markus.
