Naman is also going to discuss a non-baseline version of image captioning: Deep Visual-Semantic Alignments for Generating Image Descriptions.

Mon, March 28 - Project status updates

As shown on the course schedule, Monday and Wednesday are our second round of project status updates. The expectation is that you can demonstrate the core technical component of your semester project. You should have real results, although those results may still have issues or you may be using only a portion of the data that you plan to use eventually. A good presentation might demonstrate an implementation of what you proposed earlier, but highlight some unexpected problems revealed by your experiments.

The presentations will be in the reverse order of our first project presentations.
