COMP5329 Deep Learning Assignment-1
Due: 3-May-2019 5:00 p.m. (Week 9)
1. Task description
Based on the codes given in Tutorial: Multilayer Neural Network, you are required to accomplish a multi-class classification task on the provided dataset.
You must guarantee that the submitted codes are self-complete, and the newly implemented modules can be successfully run in common python3 environment.
You are NOT allowed to use Deep Learning frameworks (e.g. Tensorflow, Caffe, and KERAS), or any kinds of auto-grad tools (e.g. autograd) Scientific computing packages, such as NumPy and SciPy, are acceptable.
If you have any question about the assignment, please contact: Dalu Guo [email protected]

2. Dataset
The dataset can be downloaded from Canvas
There are 10 classes in this dataset. The dataset has been splited into training set and test set, where the training set has 60,000 examples and the test set has 10,000 examples.
To read the hdf5 file and load the data into a numpy array, use the following code:
with h5py.File(train_128.h5,r) as H: data = np.copy(H[data])
with h5py.File(train_label.h5,r) as H:
label = np.copy(H[label])
The performance of your neural network will be evaluated in terms of the accuracy metric, i.e.
!#$!% = number of correct classifications 100% total number of test examples
3. Instructions to hand in the assignment
3.1 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. ii.
iii.
Algorithm (a sub-folder)
Your code (could be multiple files or a project)
Input (a sub-folder)
Empty. Please do NOT include the dataset in the zip file as they are too large. We will copy the dataset to the input folder when we test the code.
Output (a sub-folder)
Predicted_labels.h5 This file contains the predicted labels of test exampels and must be in the output folder. 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
3.2 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.
3.3 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.
3.4 There is no special format to follow for the report but please make it as clear as possible and similar to a research paper.
3.5 Remember, the due date to submit them on Canvas is 3-May-2019, 5:00PM
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; 4. Marking scheme
