CSE 490E1 Assignment 7: Project Presentation

In class on Thursday, February 2, you will present your project. Plan for a 10-15 minute presentation. This marks approximately the halfway point of the quarter, so you should be well on the way to having initial results and should have a solid plan for successful completion.

Remember the advice on how to give a technical presentation. Your presentation should cover everything that one of your classmates would need to know in order to understand, evaluate, and give feedback on your project. This includes, for example:

• motivation: What is the problem? Is it an important problem? Is it a hard problem? How do people deal with it today?
• approach: How will you solve the problem? How is this different from previous approaches? Why does it have the potential to be successful where others have not been?
• research questions: What are your hypotheses? What information will you try to gather? What metrics will you measure? How are those related (whether directly or indirectly) to the real-world problem?
• preliminary results: What have you learned so far? What was unusually easy or difficult? Are there specific challenges that you are worried about, and why? What do you know today that you wish you had known a month ago?
• related work: Who else has addressed this or a similar problem, and what were the outcomes? How is it similar to and different from your work?

Submit slides in your choice of format to Canvas. If it's a proprietary format, bring your own laptop to class, with an appropriate connector.
