Description of Teaching and Learning Methods
Guided and self-organized reading of scientific papers, literature search, and writing of a summary paper.
Guided and self-organized project work.
In the beginning of the semester, students will hear presentations on reading scientific papers, finding related work, writing high-quality scientific papers, and giving a high-quality scientific presentation. Each student will be assigned an initial paper to read and understand. After that, students search for related work and write a short summary of the assigned paper, including some remarks on related work. In the end of the semester, each student gives a slide presentation in front of the group, followed by a discussion of the topic. Concurrently or in a subsequent semester, students also pick a programming project from a provided list, devise an initial design and then implement a prototype including documentation, tests, and relevant experiments. Theses programming projects are augmented by regular discussion rounds and a final presentation of the obtained results.
