 +
===Early exam===
 +
On June 6th, 13-40 - 16-30 there will two lessons. They will cover:
 +
1) a consultation before exam. Please read through all the material and come with your questions.
 +
2) Presentations of top-3 kaggle teams with their solutions (15 minutes each). Teams with over 60 submissions are welcome to tell their findings in the data - what worked and what not (10 minutes each). Everybody else is also welcome (not obliged) to participate with short presentations (5-10 minutes) and tell interesting findings in the data and non-standard approaches that you tried (not necessarily successful).
 +
 +
For your convenience there will be a possibility to take exam in data analysis earlier - on June 6th at 16-40. To take exam earlier you need to request participation to e-mail v.v.kitov@yandex.ru. The number of participants is limited. Note that earlier exam will be the same as official exam and they mutually exclude each other, so you need to select in which exam to participate. Exam program will be available soon. Earlier exam schedule is proposed for your convenience - to give you the possibility to fully concentrate on preparation to data analysis exam.

train_data = ClassificationDataSet(28*28, nb_classes=10)
for i in xrange(len(mnist_train)):

train_data.appendLinked(mnist_train[i, 1:] / 255., int(mnist_train[i, 0]))

In the practical task you should train models on the train data (base) and evaluate on the test data.

Evaluation criteria

The course lasts during the 3rd and 4th modules. Knowledge of students is assessed by evaluation of their home assignments and exams. Home assignments divide into theoretical tasks and practical tasks. There are two exams during the course – after the 3rd module and after the 4th module respectively. Each of the exams evaluates theoretical knowledge and understanding of the material studied during the respective module.

Grade takes values 4,5,…10. Grades, corresponding to 1,2,3 are assumed unsatisfactory. Exact grades are calculated using the following rule:

  • score ≥ 35% => 4,
  • score ≥ 45% => 5,
  • ...
  • score ≥ 95% => 10,

where score is calculated using the following rule:

score = 0.6 * Shomework + 0.2 * Sexam1 + 0.2 * Sexam2 + 0.2 * Scompetition

  • Shomework – proportion of correctly solved homework,
  • Sexam1 – proportion of successfully answered theoretical questions during exam after module 3,
  • Sexam2 – proportion of successfully answered theoretical questions during exam after module 4,
  • Scompetition – score for the competition in machine learning (it's also from 0 to 1).

Participation in machine learning competition is optional and can give students extra points.

Plagiarism

In case of discovered plagiarism zero points will be set for the home assignemets - for both works, which were found to be identical. In case of repeated plagiarism by one and the same person a report to the dean will be made.

Deadlines

All the deadlines can be found in the second tab here.

We have two deadlines for each assignments: normal and late. An assignment sent prior to normal deadline is scored with no penalty. The maximum score is penalized by 50% for assignments sent in between of the normal and the late deadline. Assignments sent after late deadlines will not be scored (assigned with zero score) in the absence of legitimate reasons for late submission which do not include high load on other classes.

Standard period for working on a homework assignment is 2 and 4 weeks (normal and late deadlines correspondingly) for practical assignments and 1 and 2 weeks for theoretical ones. The first practical assignment is an exception.

Deadline time: 23:59 of the day before seminar (Sunday for students attending Monday seminars and Wednesday for students that have seminars on Thursday).

Structure of emails and homework submissions

All the questions and submissions must be addressed to cshse.ml@gmail.com. The following subjects must be used:

  • For questions (general, regarding assignments, etc): "Question - Surname Name - Group(subgroup)"
  • For homework submissions: "Practice/Theory {Lab number} - Surname Name - Group(subgroup)"

Example: Practice 1 - Ivanov Ivan - 131(1)

If you want to address a particular teacher, mention his name in the subject.

Example: Question - Ivanov Ivan - 131(1) - Ekaterina

Please do not mix two different topics in a single email such as theoretical and practical assignments etc. When replying, please use the same thread (i.e. reply to the same email).

Practical assignments must be implemented in ipython notebook format, theoretical ones in pdf. Practical assignments must use Python 2.7. Use your surname as a filename for assignments (e.g. Ivanov.ipynb). Do not archive your assignments.

Assignments can be performed in either Russian or English.

Assignments can be submitted only once!
