Written Project

Dec 12, 2007

A major part of this course will involve your development of a class project. This will involve significant outside study and preparation on your part and will consist of both a written paper and an oral presentation to the class. Ideally, the paper can evolve into a publishable paper and the oral presentation will give you some experience in presenting your research before peers. An example of an acceptable project is to thoroughly research and present an overview of a topic we do not cover in class. An example of a better project is to attempt some modification, extension or improvement to existing work. The best type of project involves your best efforts at producing some novel results (new algorithm, theoretical results, etc.) The paper should be well-written and professionally presented as if you were going to submit it for publication. A schedule of the oral presentations is here.
