CS 8803 DMM: Data Management and Machine Learning (Fall 2019)




Project

The main component of the course will be an original research project. Students will organize into groups and choose to implement a project that is (1) relevant to the topics discussed in class, (2) innovative with ideas not tested before, and (3) unique (i.e., two groups may not choose the same project topic). The projects will vary in both scope and topic, but they must satisfy this criteria. Strong projects can eventually lead to a conference paper.


Each project is comprised of 5 deliverables due at different times:

Collaborations:

You are to form project groups of two or three people per project. The technical contribution of 3 people project is expected to be greater. This will be reflected when grading the final project report. The Canvas discussion board can be used as a place to form project groups.

Project Ideas:

You can come up with you own project idea that satisfies the above three criteria, or choose one project from the list of example projects the instructor provides. You need to schedule at least one appointment with the instructor to determine your project before writing your proposal. Note that the title of any email related to the course needs to starts with "CS 8803 DMM"
