Continuous Assessment Overview
  • Module 7 KAN Min-Yen

Survey Paper
  • Grading Metric:
  • Average:


  • Std. Dev:



  • Disputes on
    grade should be brought up by the end of this week
3
Proposals
  • Need a clear formulation of the problem:
    • Scope of the problem
      • Limit what you are going to examine
      • Be precise about what you are going to tackle
    • Motivation - reason why applicable to DL
    • A reasonably detailed idea of how you will approach the problem
    • How would one evaluate your project?
4
Timeline for Final Project
  • 24 Sep: Today
    • 2 week interval: have a clear idea what your project is going to be
  • 15 – 22 Oct: lecture presentation (done in pairs, sign up during break)
    • 2 week interval: have finished the bulk of the programming, and thought about how to evaluate your work
  • 13 Nov (Thursday, from 1-5 pm): final presentation
5

Project grading dimensions
  • Grade will depend more on quality, ideas, crisp results than number of hours spent
    • Creativity in defining the problem to be investigated
    • Quality of the methods used investigating it
    • Thoroughness in justifying your design decisions
    • Quality of your write-up
      • Reporting methods, results, discussion, etc.
    • Quality of evaluation of your system

    • You will not be penalized if your system performs poorly
7
Quality
  • Try to make it something that shows something interesting, not just an exercise in programming
    • But it can be a small something – be focused and not too ambitious
8
What should be in the report?
  • A clear research question or application, and hypotheses about a good approach to it
  • A clear and complete discussion of the theory / algorithms / method used
  • A high-level description of the implementation
  • Testing, and discussion of results
    • Clear graphs, tables, experimental comparisons
  • A discussion of alternatives and their performance
  • Brief but adequate discussion of related work
9
Rough grading guidelines
  • Idea’s motivation, originality, scoping: 25%
    • A chance for you to refine your proposal
  • Experiment methods, implementation: 25%
  • Evaluation methods, results and post-analysis: 25%
  • Quality of write-up
    • Including adequate comparison to prior work, proper citing: 25%
    • This part should be easy since you have done the survey paper
