Dear all,

I have now uploaded the list of students that have registered for the exam next  Tuesday 23rd. You can see your status in your profile/registrations.

If you appear as non-registered,  would still  like to participate to the exam, and did not miss the LSF registration on February 16th (that means such a registration was not possible for you). Contact me asap (no later than Monday 22nd at 10am).

Best regards,

Prof. Isabel Valera

 

 

Dear all,

As several of you have reported personal problems to submit the third assignment on time (i.e., yesterday), we have decided to extend the deadline until next Monday. If you have already submitted your assignment and you are happy with it, no need to do anything. But in case you did not manage to submit everything or directly submit at all, you got extra time.

It is also a good opportunity to make sure that the submitted assignment is in the right format. Please make sure that this is the case and if you have any doubt ask us.

Best regards,
The PML team

 

 

Dear all,

As mentioned today in class, the exam will finally take place in an online manner on the initially schedule date. The exam will be "online" so that you can take it anywhere on earth from home, but time is 2pm CET. 

It will be a written exam, and you will be able to download the questions, and upload your responses to the cms (i.e., here). What you will need to participate in the exam:

- Access to the zoom call (not camera), where I will explain the exam rules.

- Access to the cms to download and upload the exam.

-  Access to a camera or scanner to be able to make a copy of your responses and upload them to the cms. 

- Your student registration number and study program. 

It will be an open book exam, which means that you can check your lecture notes and additional material. However, solutions that are identical to the solutions of your peers, or to solutions available e.g., online, will be consider as plagiarism. If plagiarism is detected, the exam will be automatically be failed. 

More official information and details coming soon. Use the discord channel to ask question and solve your doubts towards exam preparation. 

Best regards, 

The PML team

 

PS Thank you for joining the course, we hope you enjoyed at least as much as we did. 

 

 

 

Dear all,

A new version of tutorial 7 is available, it now includes the final expression of the ELBO so you can check your final result and do the following exercises regardless of exercise 1.2. Bear in mind that you should still write down all the derivations in order to properly solve exercise 1.2.

Best,
Adrián
