Research Project (in teams of up to 4 students per team)

To successfully pass this requirement, you have to select one of the projects offered on this Web site. The selection pocess will be closed on January 31. Self-defined projects have to be approved by January 26. Details will be communicated in class.

Once a project has been claimed it is taken and cannot be claimed by another group. You have to submit a written interim report for approval by the instructor by Feb 14. You also have to submit a final project report by March 15, which has to address (1) the problem you solved, (2) the technique including their derivation (where applicable), and (3) experimental results you obtained using your approach. Ideally, the project covers interesting new ground and might be the basis for a future conference paper submission.

The instructors prefer to run this course paper-free. Programming and written assignments must be turned in electronically via email to cs223b@gmail.com, and project reports must be emailed to the primary point of contact, as specified on the project page.
