Evaluation

The evaluation is in two parts. For both, first make your team (typically 2/3 students).

Reading

The goal is to read an article an to make a presentation (the 14-feb). A list will be availble soon, but you can also propose one (I must agree beforehand). Select one article per team to read and analyse the paper to make a clear and synthetic presentation. Some questions you may use to guide your reading are (among others):

  • Did you like the paper? Did you find it interesting? Be honest!
  • What are the most important things you learned from the paper? Why are they important?
  • Do the lessons learned generalize beyond the specific task? Do they contribute towards building an important system or application?
  • Is the experimental setup satisfying? Any experiments missing? Any obvious or important baseline missing?
  • Is the problem/approach well motivated?
  • Are you convinced by the results? Why?
  • Is the writing clear? Is the paper well structured?

The important dates are :

  • Make up your team and select the paper before the 1-February
  • Presentation: the 14-February

Project

A list is available, but you can also propose one (I must agree beforehand).

  • Team and the project registration : before 1-feb
  • Deliverable for the XXX: 2 pages (pdf only) to describe the data, the task and your plan
  • Deliverable for XXX: a github/gitlab repository
  • Final deliverable: a report in pdf and the code via the git repos
  • Final deadline: XXX

    Feel free to use the teams channel to interact with me or with the other groups.
