Project Seminar Data Science and Artificial Intelligence

Dear students,

I hope your projects are all on track! As the deadline for the poster submissions is approaching (27.06. end of day), here some details:

1) Please submit your poster in DIN A0 format as a .pdf-file via CMS.
2) Please ensure that all elements (especially the figures) are in high-enough quality so they are legible and look good when printed.
3) You do not need to print the posters yourself, we will do that for you.
4) There is no pre-defined poster template you have to adhere to. It should give the reader a good idea about what you are doing and why you are doing it (that means, summary, motivation, details on data and methods, results, shortcomings). You can find last year's poster winner as an example here for some initial orientation, if needed.

The Poster Session itself will consist of two parts: First part, your team briefly pitches the poster to the others (1-2 minutes, no slides) to spark interest. Second part, we have a poster exhibition in front of the hall where you can have a look at the other posters and explain your poster to them. At the end, you will be able to vote for the best poster and the winners get a small prize.

Hope this helps to prepare, let me know, in case you have questions.

Looking forward to all your contributions,
Till

Dear students,

as we have received multiple messages with missed LSF registrations in the past days, I would kindly ask everyone to check if you are registered for this seminar not only in CMS, but also in LSF. The LSF registration deadline has passed a month ago, the examination office does usually not accept late registrations, so please let me know *ASAP* if you are properly registered or not.

Best,
Till

Dear students,

a kind reminder to share with us by Friday, May 9th, end of day, a detailed description of what your project team expects to be the key figure of your final project report. Please use the submission system of the our CMS page for that. Please just submit one file per team.

What we expect:
- A .pdf file of max. 3 pages. Please find here (in Materials of the CMS page) an example how the interim update could like.
- The file should include a figure with legend, caption, axis labels and title, if applicable.
- The file should include a description how you get and process the data that is shown in the figure.

How to get there:
1. Discuss with your project donor/advisors what they envision as a key figure from your project.
2. Look at relevant similar papers and identify the key figures in these papers.
3. If applicable, generate mockup data to be used in the figure.

Let me know, if you have any questions.

All the best,
Till
 

Dear students,

an important reminder: this project seminar is exclusively for students that are already enrolled in the B.Sc. Data Science and Artificial Intelligence program this semester! Students who plan to transfer or are in the process of transferring to the DSAI program from other programs need to check with the study coordinator if this transfer has already been completed for this semester. Also, please double-check whether your subject of study in your CMS registration reflects the program you are currently enrolled in (regardless what your future plans are), correct it, if necessary, and please notify me about the change.

The LSF system will otherwise not allow you to register with the seminar and eventually leaves your team mate as a 1-person group. I would like to avoid that, so please get in touch with me asap in case you face difficulties here.

For all other students, please register with the LSF at your earliest convenience.

All the best,
Till
