Final Project
Course Policy
• Team organization: individual project
• Deliverables
• Assignments submission
 Late assignments will not be accepted.
 But, you have one wildcard for 3‐day late submission. Use it smartly.
 Demo, source code, and presentation
 Intermediate reports
 Final report
• Academic integrity
• Guideline
 You decide the theme of your project.
 Final report should adhere to the standard quality and format of reputable conferences and journals.
 Top venues in computer vision: CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, TPAMI, IJCV
 If you do the fantastic job in your project in terms of both performance and presentation, you are eligible for ‘A’ regardless any other scores.
