tl;dr 1: Jupyter notebooks for each of the (numbered) projects below are available in the accompanying folder.
tl;dr 2: A YouTube playlist where each student group explains their work is available here: (Link to YouTube playlist)
Requirements:
-
A 1 hour long pre-recorded presentation by each team, which should be made available to the entire class on microsoft teams 2 days before your live presentation date
-
A 10 minute shorter live blackboard presentation during the class:
- Giving a broader picture of the work
- Explaining the specific calculations/plots you reproduced
- Live iPython notebook demo reproducing the plots/calculations
- In lieu of a traditional project report, an executable paper (iPython notebook is strongly encouraged) reproducing the calculations/plots/derivations needs to be supplied to the instructor for evaluation
-
In both the presentations as well as the executable paper, details of the contributions of individual group members to the project should be clearly spelt out.
-
Evaluation is based on the following criteria:
- Understanding of the topic: breadth and depth (eg. via reading cross-references)
- Quality of presentation (eg. motivation, breaking down the problem, conclusion)
- Reproducing parts of the paper or chapter (i.e. your executable paper (iPython notebook) demo) -- this component has the highest weightage
