Here is some information about the final project:

  1. You can work alone or in a group (up to 4 people), required effort will scale with # of people
  2. Select a “base” dataset (see examples below)
  3. You’ll need to simulate parameters of a physical (imaging) system with a base dataset to form a modified dataset
  4. You’ll then need to train a deep neural network, with the modified dataset, and the physical parameters in mind
  5. Please see slides from class for a number of examples and discussions

Here is a link to a template for the final project short webpage: Template for final project webpage

Here is a link to the permission form: Permission form

Using the above files, you’ll thus turn in the following:

  1. An 7-minute presentation with slides that you will give to the class during the final period
  2. A short research-style paper (4 - 6 pages on average) that includes an abstract, introduction, related work, methods, results, a discussion, references and at least 3 figures.
  3. The project’s source code
  4. A completed web template containing the main results from the research paper
  5. A completed permission form

Here are some important dates:

  • Final code and presentation due via email: Thursday May 2, 5pm
  • Final presentation time slots: Thursday May 2, 7pm - 10pm
  • Final presentation paper write-up, website template and permission form due: Saturday May 4 at 11:59pm
  • Final presentations will occur via Zoom, please coordinate with team members and practice ahead of time!
