Directions for the final report:

The report will be submitted by the due date (December 5th) via the web-handin. A HARD COPY of the report is also due in my office at the same time. The final report should be in the format of a conference paper. The final presentations will be scheduled separately and will occur before the final due date of the paper. The paper should include a short abstract at the beginning. It should end with a short statment of future work.
Your reports should use the above style sheet(s) for formatting. The paper will be in 2 column format with a maximum of 10 pages excluding references.
All associated programs and/or experimental results should also be submitted in a separate file. Programs should include a readme with directions for compilation/running.

Grading:

The grading of the final projects will be graded based on the following criteria:

Contribution to knowledge
Understanding of the selected topic
Clarity of writing and presentation of results
Thoroughness of descripton of experimental results and analysis
Implementations will also be evaluated and included in the final project mark.

Here are some questions to ask when you write the final report:

Have I sufficiently motivated the problem?
Have I given a clear introduction to the background material and cited related work?
Have I given a detailed description of my process and have I included all important parameter settings?
Have I justified my design choices?
Are the experimental results clearly given in table/graph format?
Do the conclusons make sense based on the presented data?
Are there threats/limitations to the validity of these results? If so, have I acknowledged them?
What is the most important contribution of my project? Does this come through in the presentation?
