Final Project Proposal

Due April 11, 11:59PM EST

Your proposal should be submitted as a PDF or markdown file, and should include:

• The names of your group members
• The problem that you intend to address, answering the following three questions:
  • How this problem is related to the class?
  • What is interesting about this problem?
  • What is the novel component of your project?
• The data that you will use for your project
  • Be especially careful when choosing data; make sure that if you are planning to use data that is mentioned in a paper, you are able to download it freely without having to reach out to the authors or have access to an API
• A high level description of how you will evaluate your results
• A tentative week-by-week timeline describing how you intend to complete your project before May 21st
  • This should include your intended deliverable for project check-in 2
    • For projects that compare a new model to a baseline, this should include an implementation of your baseline model and drafts of the data and methods sections of your report. The draft sections will touch on the soundness and reproducibility aspects of the project.
    • For other projects, you should propose an equivalent deliverable
