Final Projects- (Machine Learning Spring 2003)

  • The project accounts for 40% of your final grade marks
  • The point allocation in the projects will be as follows:
    • 40% : Relevance, motivation & formulation of the problem
    • 40% : Methods and Results
    • 20% : Presentation (how well you get ideas across in the time allocated to you).
  • Your team will be asked to make a 15 min presentation using ppt. or conventional slides
  • You should summarize the most important results in a one page summary to be handed over to the evaluators at the time of presentation
  • You will be evaluated by 3 independent evaluators present at your presentation
  • The guidelines for the project are here.
