For 805 students only: the initial project proposal is due via email to wcohen+805@gmail.com. You will get feedback on it from the instructors, and it will also be posted to the class - mainly for 605 students that are interested in collaborating, but also for general interest. Please be clear about your proposal. I'm expecting approximately one page. Machine_Learning_with_Large_Datasets_10-605_in_Fall_2016#Project_Infoi.
You should discuss what dataset you plan to use, what results you hope to obtain, what baseline technique you will build on and/or compare to. For this class it's fine for the project to concentrate on issues other than accuracy (eg time or memory or parallelization or...).
Also include a section saying if you have a partner; and if you are willing to work with/mentor one or more 605 students, and if so, how you anticipate them contributing to the project.
Students often underestimate the time needed to collect data: so you must have the dataset in-hand at proposal time and be prepared to discuss characteristics of it with me when you propose. You may use an existing dataset (and this is generally preferred).
