Plans for the rest of the semester and deadlines

Dear all, I have updated the plans for the rest of the semester, see /studier/emner/matnat/fys/FYS5429/v23/timeplan/index.html?no-cache
There you will also find the video and whiteboard notes from the last lecture.
We end the course with a discussion of deep learning and generative models and unsupervised learning. This is a very active field of research. We start with Boltzmann machines as a stepping stone towards generative adversarial networks and variational autoencoders. 
Our last lecture will most likely be May 3, thereafter we focus only on project work and there are no lectures but we can always organized group or individual zoom sessions.

The deadline for the project is set to May 31, with some flexibility.  We use canvas for handing in.
The oral exam is something we can decide upon but I would like to suggest either June 14-16 or the week thereafter, starting with June 21.  The project counts 70% of the grade and the final oral exam, where you present the project, counts 30%. The duration is typically 45 min, 25-30 for your presentation and 15-20 for questions.
Feel free to send me feedback on the schedule for the final exam.
In the meantime, all the best,
Morten
