Project Guidelines
- Students taking this course for credit will work on a
computer vision project. Projects can be
done independently or in groups, but group projects are strongly encouraged.
A project differs from other homework assignments in the following aspects:
- It is the last assignment
- It takes about three weeks to do
- You choose the project from one of the project
suggestions made in the other homework assignments
- It involves more programming
The other homework assignments are partially preparation
for the project. Details on format, scope, and more will be given in class.
Computer vision resources from the web may be useful
in your project.
Project Schedule
- March 30: send mail to
tomasi@cs.duke.edu with your
selection of topic (one or two paragraphs; 10 percent of
project grade)
- April 6 and 8:
five-minute in class presentation on what your project is about, and
discussion of problems and opportunities (30 percent of project
grade)
- April 15: final project reports
are due (60 percent of project grade)
- The final report materials should be in HTML format (more on
this below). Either e-mail a URL to tomasi@cs.duke.edu
that points to your HTML
files, or else send me the HTML files themselves in an e-mail. If you use the
latter method, please send me a single zip archive file. Project deadlines are
strict. Only under special circumstances, discussed with me in advance, can
the deadline be moved by a few days.
- HTML is a simple markup language for World-Wide Web pages. Here is a
pointer to
tutorials, reference manuals, and tips for writing in HTML. However, the
easiest way to learn how to write in this language is to copy an example and
modify it to suit your needs.
