COMP5329 Deep Learning
Assignment-2
Due: 31-May-2019 17:00 (Week 13)
Assignment-2 has two tracks: competition track and reseach track.
Students should attend one of the two tracks. 2 or 3 students are suggested to form a group to attend one of these two tracks.
1. Competition track description [100 Marks]:
The goal is to achieve the best classification performance as you can. You can use any dataset you can get for the training.
You can use any methods in deep learning to accomplish the classification task. You must guarantee that the submitted codes are self-complete, and can be successfully run in common python3 and TensorFlow environment.
The performance of your algorithms will be evaluated in terms of the accuracy metric, i.e.
accuracy = number of correct classifications 100% total number of test examples
Groups participating in this track will be ranked according to their classification performance on the test set.
Given an image that has more than one ground-truth label, a correct classification implies that you have to correctly predict at least one ground- truth label.
Instructions to hand in the assignment
1.1 Go to Canvas and upload the following files/folders compressed together as a zip file
a) Report (a pdf file)
The report should include each members details (student ID and name) b) Code (a folder)
i. Algorithm (a sub-folder)
Your code (could be multiple files or a project)
ii. Input (a sub-folder)
iii.
Empty. Please do NOT include the dataset in the zip file as they are too large.
Output (a sub-folder)
Predicted_labels.txt This file contains the predicted labels of test exampels and must follow the same formate as file train.txt. We will use this file for grading.
If you work as a group, only one student needs to submit the zip file which must be named as student ID numbers of all group members separated by underscores. E.g. xxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxx .zip
1.2 Your submission should include the report and the code. A plagiarism checker will be used. Clearly provide instructions on how to run your code in the appendix of the report.
1.3 The report must clearly show (i) details of your modules, (ii) the predicted results from your classifier on test examples, (iii) run-time, and (iv) hardware and software specifications of the computer that you used for performance evaluations.
1.4 There is no special format to follow for the report but please make it as clear as possible and similar to a research paper.
1.5 A penalty of MINUS 1 (one) points per each day after the due date. Maximum delay is 7 (seven) days, after that assignments will not be accepted.
1.6 Remember, the due date to submit them on Canvas is 31-May-2019, 17:00
Late submission:
Suppose you hand in work after the deadline:
If you have not been granted special consideration or arrangements
A penalty of 20% of the available marks will be taken, per day (or part) late
Eg your work would have scored 60% and is 1 hour late you get 40%
Eg your work would have scored 70% and is 28 hours late you get 30%
Submit early;

Research track description [100 Marks]:This research track calls for brave new ideas on deep learning. In this track, you are encouraged to propose and investigate new algorithms or problems in deep learning.You must not use the project (e.g. your capstone or SSP project) that you have aleady done or are currently doing in other units to participate in this track.Selected groups for this research trach have already been announced on Canvas.You are encouraged to contact our teaching team, if you want to have some discussion on your proposed research problems.Marking scheme CategoryCriterion Marks Comments Report [60] Introduction [10]- What is the research problem?- Why this research problem is important.- What is your major idea to solve this problem?Related works [10]-The related works on this research problem.Techniques [20]- The technical details of your proposed solution.Experiments and results [10]- Comparison algorithms- Experimental tables and figures – Analysis on the proposed solution.Conclusions and Discussion [10]- Meaningful conclusion and discussion.Novelty [20] The novelty of the proposed solution.Experiments [20]Include related existing algorithms in comparison experiemnts.Bounous [5]A presention in class (week 13).Penalties [-]Late submission: [-1] for each day lateSubmite the report and source codes in experiments on Canvas before the due date 31-May-2018.If you have any question about the assignment, please contact: Dalu Guo [email protected] Kong [email protected]
