The to-do lists here correspond to the Course schedule. Each list must be completed before the day of review. It is Wednesday 06:00 am for the 2020 Spring semester.

Todo T: Theoretical part

The theoretical part describes the proposed solution and declares its properties. The goal is to join the theoretical elements into a method. This method includes hypotheses, models, criteria, and the optimization algorithm.

  1. Write the solution of your problem
    • in a simple outline variant,
    • expand necessary details,
    • use algorithm LaTeX template.
  2. Compare notations in the problem statement, solution, and code. Make sure the code does not contradict the text.

  3. Gather the experiment parameters in a special-purpose section.
    • A text description of the experiment flow helps.
  4. Set a procedure of historical version points to return to the previous experiment.
    • Commit schedule helps.
  5. Write named plots to a designated folder.
    • Write your results to a .tex-file and compile.
  • If your experiment run takes a long time, just cut the data set.
    • Do not use big or sophisticated data. Put your efforts to illustrate your main message.

    • Goal: put notations to the plot.
  2. List plots to illustrate the error analysis.
  3. Make a plot to show the main message.

    • docs,
    • code,
    • data,
    • [figs].
  2. Put the direct link to the paper in the table, so that everyone could access it.
  3. Rename article.tex to Surname2020Title.tex

  5. Update your personal page on Machinelearning.ru.

Todo X: Experiment planning

Plan your computational experiment.

  1. Discuss the experiment goal with your adviser and team.
    • Put this goal in the section Computational experiment
  2. Describe your basic data set, a synthetic, or a simple real one:
    • put in the text the title, source, and set up of measurements (it is the technical description, the theoretical one is in the problem statement section),
    • write down the number of objects, and features, describe general statistics,
    • for a synthetic data set describe the generation model, and its parameters (for example, uniform random independent sampling at some given interval).
  3. Describe the configuration of the algorithm run.
  4. Plan the whole experimental part.
  5. List expected tables and figures:
    • make short and long list, for each
    • describe axes,
    • make a draft with a pencil.

Todo B: Run basic code

Select the basic algorithm and run it using a simple data set.

  1. Run your basic algorithm:
    • select the simplest algorithm (with your adviser) to (partially) solve the problem you set.
  2. Collect a synthetic data set or download a simple real-word data set of small size.
  3. Upload your data to the repository (in case the data size exceed 5MB or the data set consists of numerous files, please discuss with your adviser and team).
  4. Run the basic algorithm on the synthetic data set, estimate the error.
  5. Describe the basic algorithm, analyst its features, list competitive models.

  1. Make sure that the obtained results are in no contradiction with the goals of the computational experiment.
  2. Illustrate the obtained results with the preliminary plot see the format.
  3. Write a mini-report on the results with
    1. a short description of the figure: what the reader could see, what are the consequences,
    2. the results in numbers and comments on it,
    3. put the report to the section computational experiment.

Todo P: Problem statement

In the paradigm Idea\(\to\)Formula\(\to\)Code state the problem to find an optimal solution.

  1. Discuss the problem statement with your adviser.
  2. See the examples below and in the past projects.
  3. Discuss terminology and notation see [pdf] and [tex] with notations and a useful style file.
  4. At the beginning of the Problem statement write a general problem description.
  5. Describe the elements of your problem statement:
    1. the sample set,
    2. its origin, or its algebraic structure,
    3. statistical hypotheses of data generation,
    4. [conditions of measurements] ,
    5. [restrictions of the sample set and its values],
    6. your model in the class of models,
    7. restrictions on the class of models,
    8. the error function (and its inference) or a loss function, or a quality criterion,
    9. cross-validation procedure,
    10. restrictions to the solutions,
    11. external (industrial) quality criteria,
    12. the optimization statement as \(\arg\min\).
  6. Define the main termini: what is called the model, the solution, and the algorithm.

Note that:

  • The model is a parametric family of functions to map design space to target space.
  • The criterion (error function) is a function to optimize in order to obtain an optimal solution (model parameters, a function).
  • The algorithm transforms solution space, usually iteratively.
  • The method combines a model, a criterion, and an algorithm to produce a solution.

Check it:

  • the regression model,
  • the sum of squared errors,
  • the Newton-Raphson algorithm,
  • the method of least squares.

Todo B: Beginner's-talk

Short 45-second introductory talk. Plan of the talk:

  1. The project goal. What is the motivation, the goal to reach?
  2. The main idea. What is the message?
  3. The expected result. What is your delivery, your impact, novelty?

There is no time to show a slide or draw a plot on the blackboard. It is recommended to rehearse the report.

Todo I: Introduction

The introductory part includes research goals and motivations. It reasons the research with fundamental and state-of-the-art references. It delivers the main message of the work to the reader. This message shows the novelty of this work in comparison to recent results.

  1. Create a file ProjectN.bib for the group project, or Surname2018Title.bib for your personal project.
  2. Move from the file LinkReview useful bibliographic records in the BibTeX format.
    • Check the correctness of the BibTeX database (styles of authors' names, volumes of journals, page numbers).
    • Use bibliographic databases to facilitate your work.
    • Use the default style \bibliographystyle{plain} before the bibliography section \bibliography{ProjectN}.
    • Important! Wikipedia is not a source of information, but it contains many useful sources.
    • Important! ArXiv is not a peer-reviewed source of information. Look for copies of papers that are published in peer-reviewed scientific journals. If after one or two years after its ArXiv version, the paper did not appear in a peer-reviewed journal, be careful to use it: this paper might be non-verified since it was rejected by the other journals.
  3. Write Introduction. The expected size is one page. The expected plan is:
    1. the research goal (and its motivations),
    2. the object of research (introduce main termini),
    3. the problem (what is the challenge),
    4. methodology: literature review and state-of-the-art
    5. the project tasks,
    6. the proposed solution, its novelty and advantages,
    7. the profs and cons of recent works,
    8. goal of the experiment, set up, data sets, workflow.

The goal of this week is to comprehend the goal at its whole and write about it.

Resources

Todo L: Literature

We use the LinkReview draft format to share our evanescent ephemeral ideas and impressions we have during the literature reading.

  1. Collect the list of references including:
    1. state-of-the-art reviews, tutorials,
    2. fundamental solutions to the problem,
    3. the basic algorithm to solve your problem,
    4. alternative algorithms,
    5. [changes in the research directions],
