Course Project (2023 Winter)
The goal of the course project is to apply deep learning techniques learned in class (it is fine if you use the techniques not introduced in class) to solve real-world problems or develop new deep learning techniques. You are expected to work in teams and learn to collaborate with your teammates. Each group should make a poster in the final class and participate in the poster session to present your results and communicate with other teams. A project report, source codes, and data sets should also be submitted at the end of the course.
Full instructions can be found here (Eng) and here (Fr).
You may for sure use Google Colab! Or run your codes on Google Cloud Platform(GCP). The GCP tutorial can be found here.
Guidelines
- Project Proposal. The project proposal is a summary of your proposed re- search topic and study plan. It should include the background of the problem (context and motivation), problem definition, and a plan on how you want to study it. The project proposal should be at most 2 pages.
- Poster. The suggested poster size will be updated later. Some examples of posters in conferences are available here: postersession.ai/
- Final Report. The final report should give a comprehensive description of your projects. It should contain a section about the motivation and definition of your selected topics, a section summarizing the related work, a section on the techniques you used for solving the problem, an empirical section presenting your data sets and results with detailed analysis, and a conclusion section. The report should be at most 8 pages (not including references) using the NeurIPS format1. The final report should be submitted in pdf format.

Poster Presentation
- We use Gather to do poster presentation. You can find a video tutorial that guides you how to upload your poster (by group). Be sure to do this before the poster session: April 12 (J1) / April 13 (J2).
- The space for poster session is already set here. You can upload your poster (in image format) once you are ready.
- If you have questions about using Gather, feel free to contact TAs.
