Specifically, OU will be making strategic changes to its academic advising, experiential learning opportunities and tutoring this upcoming semester.
Following the 2021-2022 spring semester, 339 students were academically dismissed from the university, which is higher than the number of students dismissed during the 2018-2019, 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 spring semesters combined.
At the June Board of Trustees meeting, OU President Hugh Sherman said the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted students' routines and academic schedules, which may have caused changes in grades, according to a previous Post report.
Jenny Klein, the executive director of advising and graduation plans, said COVID-19 has been and will continue to be a lingering obstacle for students of all ages.
“Various things that people normally learn … didn't progress at the normal rate,” Klein said. “It's just been a really challenging time, and the lingering effects of the pandemic have shown themselves, to some extent, in the academic achievements here at Ohio University, as they have everywhere.”
The university plans to prevent similar academic trends from occurring during the 2022-2023 school year by expanding its academic intervention notification system — My Ohio Success Network. Last school year, Klein said over 30,000 notifications were sent to students through the systems, marking their progress in classes.
Academic advisers are also flagged when one of their advisees receives a warning message so they can follow up and work with students to identify the cause of poor performance.
Progress messages are only sent to students from professors who fill out their students’ success surveys, causing differences in how many messages students receive, Klein said.
This year, Klein said more faculty members will complete the survey and students will get more messages. With one of the largest incoming classes starting at OU this fall, Klein said the My Ohio Success Network will be utilized even more.
Those incoming students will also have a different pair of advisers than current OU students. Instead of being assigned an academic adviser and a success adviser, new students will have a faculty mentor and success adviser.
Faculty mentors are experts in their fields who will guide students through their declared major. They will be selected by each department based on the student's area of interest and which faculty member will best fit that interest.
“The faculty mentor and success advisors will work together to guide students through their experience,” Klein said.
In addition to improving classroom performance, Lindsey Rudibaugh, the executive director of experiential learning, said her office is looking to broaden the spectrum of experiential learning activities.
Rudibaugh said experiential learning can be anything that involves community engagement, creativity, research, domestic and abroad study and leadership activities.
“We're trying to broaden that landscape and help students think bigger, broader about what they might do, what experiences they might have to really get a leg up and be prepared to be good professionals,” Rudibaugh said. “We want our students to be good citizens after graduation.”
An experiential learning staff member is available within each academic college to help students navigate their opportunities and determine which path is best, Rudibaugh said.
To improve the experiential learning opportunities at OU, Rudibaugh said research would be conducted during the Fall Semester to learn more about the real and perceived barriers to experiential learning. What is gathered from their research will be applied to current and future student experiences during the 2022-2023 spring semester.
Over 300 students will remain on academic probation for the upcoming semester and the Academic Achievement Center offers success workshops to improve those students’ performances, said Elizabeth Fallon, the director of Academic Assistance.
The 90-minute in-person workshops help students understand the seriousness of academic probation and tools like GPA calculators, study skills, and academic coaching they can utilize to improve their standing.
Despite the effectsCOVID-19 will have on the classroom experience this fall, Klein and Rudibaugh believe directly addressing academic issues and helping those on probation will prevent a similar number of students from being dismissed from the university following the upcoming year.
“Student success improves when students have a holistic circle of care around them and … know that we are all here to make sure they're successful Bobcats,” Klein said. “We hope that the number of students who struggle decreases as a result of students being surrounded by a caring community that's really dedicated to their success.”

Working with Flag Value Sources
The Vexil FlagPole
supports multiple backend flag sources, and ships with the following sources built-in:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
UserDefaults |
Any UserDefaults instance automatically conforms to FlagValueSource |
Snapshot |
All snapshots taken of a FlagPole can be used as a source. |
Initialisation
When initialising a FlagPole
, it will default to a single source: UserDefaults.standard
.
You can always be explicit if you want to use a different set of sources:
let source = MyCustomFlagValueSource()
let pole = FlagPole(hoist: MyFlags.self, sources: [ source ])
Source hierarchy
Sources are maintained in an Array
on the FlagPole
, and the order of the array is important – when a flag is accessed it walks the array of sources and returns the first non-nil value.
This means you can support multiple flag value sources and decide their priority. For example, you might use a remote flag value provider like Firebase Remote Config but still want to use Vexillographer or the Settings bundle to let support local testers.
Another common usage is to support “Environment”-based Snapshots.
let pole = FlagPole (
hoist: MyFlags.self,
sources: [
UserDefaults.standard, // allow local overrides
environment.flags, // any flags specific to your environment (eg. dev/test/prod)
MyRemoteFlagProvider() // remote flags
]
)
Remember, if all of your sources return nil
the Flag’s default value is used.
Updating sources
Vexil, and Vexillographer, also provide a means to update or save flag values into their store using Snapshots.
import Vexil
let flagPole = FlagPole(hoist: AppFlags.self)
let snapshot = flagPole.emptySnapshot()
snapshot.profile.password.changePassword = false
// save that to our user defaults, or any FlagValueSource
flagPole.save(snapshot: snapshot, to: UserDefaults.standard)
Custom sources
To implement your own source you need only conform to the FlagPoleSource
protocol and implement its two key methods:
public protocol FlagValueSource {
/// Give the source a name (for Vexillographer)
var name: String { get }
/// Provide a way to fetch values
func flagValue<Value> (key: String) -> Value? where Value: FlagValue
/// And to save values – if your source does not support saving just do nothing
func setFlagValue<Value> (_ value: Value?, key: String) throws where Value: FlagValue
#if !os(Linux)
/// If you're running on a platform that supports Combine you can optionally support real-time
/// flag updates
///
var valuesDidChange: AnyPublisher<Void, Never>? { get }
#endif
}
See our full guide on Creating Custom FlagValueSources for more.

Open ajax_api.html for the code | Images are taken from: JS Course by Jonas Schmedtmann
AJAX stands for Asynchronous Javascript And XML, and basically, AJAX allows us to Asynchronously communicate with Remote Servers.
Let's say we have our JavaScript App running in the browser (which also called "client"), and we want to get some data from the remote server, without having to reload the entire page. With AJAX, we can do a simple GET HTTP Request to the Remote Server, which will then send back a Response containing the data that we requested, and all of this happens asynchronously, in the background (See event_loop.pdf). Also, this not only works for getting data from the remote server, it also works for sending data to the server, by doing a POST Request. In practice, there are many ways to do AJAX in JavaScript, but we will concentrate on the Fetch
Web API which will allow us to make AJAX calls in a simple way.
Since we are talking about servers, we also have to talk about APIs, which stands for Application Programming Interface. At an extremely high level, API is a piece of software that can be used by another piece of software in order to allow applications to talk to each other. And that's not just valid for Web Development, but for Programming in general. In reference to Web Development, AJAX & Servers, API is not the server itself, but a part of the Server (Eg: An application that receives requests and sends back responses).
There are two types of APIs that we can use in JavaScript
Let's imagine for a second that we are building a travelling app, and we have database with different destinations and tourse that we are offering. Therefore, on our server, we could build our own API that can receive request from our front-end app and send back the results. So that would be our own API hosted on our own server. But now we also need some current weather information for each destination, and that data is not available in our database, so for that, we will use a 3rd Party API to get that weather data of the destination. And there are a lot of 3rd Party API's and some of them are mentioned above.

Contains FD&C Red #40 Lake and FD&C Blue #1 Lake.

CONTRAINDICATIONS
This product is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients.
CAUTION
High levels of folic acid may, especially in older adults, hide signs of vitamin B-12 deficiency (such as pernicious anemia, a condition that can cause nerve damage).
High levels of niacin can potentiate hepatotoxicity in patients taking known hepatotoxins: leflunomide, teriflunomide, lomitapide, mipomersen, and statins (lovastatin, simvastatin, atorvastatin, cerivastatin, pitavastatin, rosuvastatin, and red yeast rice).
SIDE EFFECTS
Allergic sensitization has been reported following oral administration of folic acid. Paresthesia, somnolence, nausea and headaches have been reported with pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6).
Flushing may occur after oral administration of nicotinamide. Nonspecific gastrointestinal side effects also may occur.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
Drugs which may interact with folate include:
- Antiepileptic drugs (AED): The AED class including, but not limited to, phenytoin, carbamazepine, primidone, valproic acid, fosphenytoin, valproate, phenobarbital and lamotrigine have been shown to impair folate absorption and increase the metabolism of circulating folate.
- Additionally, concurrent use of folic acid has been associated with enhanced phenytoin metabolism, lowering the level of the AED in the blood and allowing breakthrough seizures to occur. Caution should be used when prescribing this product among patients who are receiving treatment with phenytoin or other anticonvulsants.
- Capecitabine: Folinic acid (5-formyltetrahydrofolate) may increase the toxicity of Capecitabine.
- Cholestyramine: Reduces folic acid absorption and reduces serum folate levels.
- Colestipol: Reduces folic acid absorption and reduces serum folate levels.
- Cycloserine: Reduces folic acid absorption and reduces serum folate levels.
- Dihydrofolate Reductase Inhibitors (DHFRI): DHFRIs block the conversion of folic acid to its active forms, and lower plasma and red blood cell folate levels. DHFRIs include aminopterin, methotrexate, pyrimethamine, triamterene, and trimethoprim.
- Fluoxetine: Fluoxetine exerts a noncompetitive inhibition of the 5-methyltetrahydrofolate active transport in the intestine.
- Isotretinoin: Reduced folate levels have occurred in some patients taking isotretinoin.
- L-dopa, triamterene, colchicine, and trimethoprim may decrease plasma folate levels.
- Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs): NSAIDs have been shown to inhibit some folate dependent enzymes in laboratory experiments. NSAIDs include ibuprofen, naproxen, indomethacin and sulindac.
- Oral Contraceptives: Serum folate levels may be depressed by oral contraceptive therapy.
- Methylprednisolone: Reduced serum folate levels have been noted after treatment with methylprednisolone.
- Pancreatic Enzymes: Reduced folate levels have occurred in some patients taking pancreatic extracts, such as pancreatin and pancrelipase.
- Pentamidine: Reduced folate levels have been seen with prolonged intravenous pentamidine.
- Pyrimethamine: High levels of folic acid may result in decreased serum levels of pyrimethamine.
- Smoking and Alcohol: Reduced serum folate levels have been noted.
- Sulfasalazine: Inhibits the absorption and metabolism of folic acid.
- Metformin treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes decreases serum folate.
- Warfarin can produce significant impairment in folate status after a 6-month therapy.
Drugs which may interact with nicotinamide:
- The clearance of primidone and carbamazepine may be reduced with the concomitant use of nicotinamide.
- Niacin can potentiate the hepatotoxicity of statins and other hepatotoxic drugs (see Cautions).
Drugs which may interact with zinc oxide:
- The absorption of quinolones or tetracycline may be decreased with the concomitant use of zinc.
Drugs which may interact with cupric oxide:
- Concomitant use of penicillamine and copper can cause decreased absorption of both substances.
PREGNANT and NURSING MOTHERS
VP-ZEL Tabs is not intended for use as a prenatal/postnatal multivitamin for pregnant, lactating, or non-lactating mothers. Talk with your medical practitioner before using if pregnant or lactating.

This Assignment I worked with IIS (Internet Information Services), which hosts websites, I made 4 websites with different specifications, and also installed a network monitoring program.
The last Assignment we worked on was deploying & configuring Microsoft Exchange server 2013
One of the Assignments we did in our Virtualization course was VMware Vsphere High Availabilty clustering and Vmotion.

Close ProjectIn our Programming classes we learnt Java (using Bluejay studios), HTML5/CSS3, PHP (using PHPStorm), android Java (using Android studio), and SQL (using PHPMyadmin, terminal, Oracle).
Close ProjectHere is a Linux project we did in Centos 7 making local sites with apache and then benchmarking stress tests against a default site.
Here is another project focused on Linux DNS Forwarding and Reverse lookups privately and publicly with a Master VM, and a Slave VM using BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain).
Here is the Final project two other classmates and I worked on in the Database course.
Through Cisco's Netacad I learnt basic Networking skills such as: Cisco IOS commands, Static routes and Default routes, RIPv2, OSPF, Switch Port Security, VLAN trunks, VLAN routing, standard IPv4 ACLs, DHCP, PAT, Syslog, and NTP.

| vec_ptype {vctrs} | R Documentation |
vec_ptype()
returns the unfinalised prototype of a single vector.
vec_ptype_common()
finds the common type of multiple vectors.
vec_ptype_show()
nicely prints the common type of any number of
inputs, and is designed for interactive exploration.
vec_ptype(x, ..., x_arg = "") vec_ptype_common(..., .ptype = NULL) vec_ptype_show(...)
x |

For For |
x_arg |

.ptype |
If Alternatively, you can supply |
vec_ptype()
and vec_ptype_common()
return a prototype
(a size-0 vector)
vec_ptype()
vec_ptype()
returns size 0 vectors potentially
containing attributes but no data. Generally, this is just
vec_slice(x, 0L)
, but some inputs require special
handling.
While you can't slice NULL
, the prototype of NULL
is
itself. This is because we treat NULL
as an identity value in
the vec_ptype2()
monoid.
The prototype of logical vectors that only contain missing values
is the special unspecified type, which can be coerced to any
other 1d type. This allows bare NA
s to represent missing values
for any 1d vector type.
See internal-faq-ptype2-identity for more information about identity values.
vec_ptype()
is a performance generic. It is not necessary to implement it
because the default method will work for any vctrs type. However the default
method builds around other vctrs primitives like vec_slice()
which incurs
performance costs. If your class has a static prototype, you might consider
implementing a custom vec_ptype()
method that returns a constant. This will
improve the performance of your class in many cases (common type imputation in particular).
Because it may contain unspecified vectors, the prototype returned
by vec_ptype()
is said to be unfinalised. Call
vec_ptype_finalise()
to finalise it. Commonly you will need the
finalised prototype as returned by vec_slice(x, 0L)
.
vec_ptype_common()
vec_ptype_common()
first finds the prototype of each input, then
successively calls vec_ptype2()
to find a common type. It returns
a finalised prototype.

So far this week I didn’t need to use any of them. But I do realise from the past that the more you open up to them by slowly getting yourself to trust them, the more they will trust you. It doesn’t have to get really personal from the beginning itself, but just small things like how your day was, an argument you had, a general thing that is on your mind – anything that lays a foundation and builds a common ground as to who you are, what you stand for, your values and principles in life – will let them acknowledge who you are as a person and they will start sharing things too.
So empathic listening is something everyone does usually when having DMCs (deep meaningful conversations). What’s really nice about this exercise is (especially when trying for the first time) is that you are aware not only of what they’re saying but how you connect, their emotions and how it rises up similar feelings inside us, we become almost like a mirror – mirroring their feelings.
It was different for sure, usually I’m the patient kind and when something happens I tend to keep it in, if need be I’ll talk to my family about it. But as I kept going down the ladder from people I love to people I dislike, I am not really surprised about the negative feelings that set in. But by the end of the exercise I was just filled with positive thoughts and a happy feeling (not exactly unicorns and cloud nine but happy). The idea of our brain being pre-wired to be social seems to be very true especially since every human likes to have some company with them.
Hm… this is a bit hard… opening up isn’t really my thing… and putting it where everyone can see umm… lol!!
“Seek first to understand, then to be understood.” —Stephen R. Covey
“Kindness is the engine of empathy; it motivates you to care, and it makes you more receptive to others, and them to you.” – The kinder you are to a person the easier is to be understanding towards that person and care about them
The subject of our thinking is what our mind tends to believe, and eventually we start believing it too.

Appends a global before block to all behaviours.
If you want to restrict the block to a subset of all the behaviours then specify this in a Hash as the last argument:
config.prepend_before(:all, :behaviour_type => :farm)
or
config.prepend_before(:behaviour_type => :farm)
Declares modules to be included in all behaviours (describe blocks).
config.include(My::Bottle, My::Cup)
If you want to restrict the inclusion to a subset of all the behaviours then specify this in a Hash as the last argument:
config.include(My::Pony, My::Horse, :behaviour_type => :farm)
Only behaviours that have that type will get the modules included:
describe "Downtown", :behaviour_type => :city do # Will *not* get My::Pony and My::Horse included end describe "Old Mac Donald", :behaviour_type => :farm do # *Will* get My::Pony and My::Horse included end
Chooses what mock framework to use. Example:
Spec::Runner.configure do |config| config.mock_with :rspec, :mocha, :flexmock, or :rr end
To use any other mock framework, you‘ll have to provide your own adapter. This is simply a module that responds to setup_mocks_for_rspec, verify_mocks_for_rspec and teardown_mocks_for_rspec. These are your hooks into the lifecycle of a given example. RSpec will call setup_mocks_for_rspec before running anything else in each Example. After executing the after methods, RSpec will then call verify_mocks_for_rspec and teardown_mocks_for_rspec (this is guaranteed to run even if there are failures in verify_mocks_for_rspec).
Once you‘ve defined this module, you can pass that to mock_with:
Spec::Runner.configure do |config| config.mock_with MyMockFrameworkAdapter end
Defines global predicate matchers. Example:
config.predicate_matchers[:swim] = :can_swim?
This makes it possible to say:
person.should swim # passes if person.should_swim? returns true

Man on the Moon (1999) Jim Carrey, Danny DeVito, Courtney Love, Paul Giamatti, Vincent Schiavelli, Peter Bonerz, Jerry Lawler, Gerry Becker, Leslie Lyles. Screenplay, Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski. Directed by Milos Forman. 118 minutes. Rated R, 2 stars (out of five stars)
Review by Ed Johnson-Ott, NUVO Newsweekly www.nuvo-online.com Archive reviews at http://us.imdb.com/ReviewsBy?Edward+Johnson-Ott To receive reviews by e-mail at no charge, send subscription requests to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or e-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>with the word "subscribe" in the subject line.
When I first learned Jim Carrey would star in a film based on the life of performance artist Andy Kaufman, a number of questions sprang to mind. Would Carrey be able to pull off a credible impression of the late performer? Would the film accurately capture Kaufman's peculiar appeal? And, most importantly, was this movie really necessary?
The answers turn out to be yes, yes and no.
Andy Kaufman first reached a mass audience on the debut of "Saturday Night Live," with a hilarious bit where he lip-synched one sentence from the "Mighty Mouse" theme song. After a number of additional "SNL" appearances, he reached stardom on "Taxi" as Latka Gravas, the lovable immigrant mechanic whose halting English was supplemented by long streams of Latka's deliciously odd native language.
Always the provocateur, Kaufman periodically turned up in another persona, that of Tony Clifton; an extremely obnoxious lounge lizard type. Kaufman also became obsessed with wrestling women, alienating a large segment of his fans along the way. After "Taxi" completed its run, his controversial behavior led to a call-in ballot on "SNL," where the audience voted by a large margin to ban the performer from the show forever. Later, when it was announced that the 35-year-old was dying of cancer, many wondered if this was yet another put-on.
In "Man on the Moon" (the title comes from the wonderful tribute song by R.E.M.), Jim Carrey does a startlingly accurate impersonation of Kaufman onstage. He really nails him; sounding, moving and even looking like the off-the-wall entertainer. His Kaufman impression is as good as Kaufman's legendary Elvis impression. But that's not enough to justify a movie. I wanted to learn more about what made Andy tick, or at least see some juicy behind-the-scenes material. Instead, "Man on the Moon" is content to merely reenact oft-seen Kaufman performances. Comedy Central frequently runs two thorough documentaries on Andy Kaufman, and E!, MSNBC and A&E have all done competent biographies on him. Why watch an impersonation when footage of the actual man is so accessible?
They could have done more. Bob Zmuda, Kaufman's closest collaborator, was intimately involved in the production of the film. Why didn't we get the story of how the two got together, or some scenes of them working as a team, plotting out the various stunts? Zmuda often played the heavily made-up Tony Clifton in Kaufman's absence. How about a little explanation on how the character was cooked up?
Continuing my rant, how about an explanation about the wrestling with women business? In the film, people repeatedly ask Kaufman why he persists in pursuing such a career-damaging bit, but answers are never provided. In addition to Zmuda, Kaufman's manager and girlfriend were also involved with the making of the movie. It's hard to believe that, over the course of years, he never gave them any answers.
As good as Carrey is during the onstage segments, he seems lost when the spotlights go off, geeking it up excessively during personal moments. I've seen interviews with Kaufman and he didn't spend every waking moment looking at people with bug-eyed expressions. I suspect Carrey did the goon routine in the intimate scenes because he didn't have anything else to work with.
I also suspect the filmmakers wanted it that way. I think they believed it would be clever to keep the film as cryptic as Kaufman's various personas. The hook of the movie is that he created so many characters that the real Andy Kaufman got lost along the way, but that feels like cheap pathos to me, and I expect more than that from a director of Milos Forman's caliber. After all, this is the man behind "Amadeus" and "The People vs. Larry Flynt."
Forman starts the film off in style, with Kaufman addressing the audience in his foreign man character, complaining about how his story was handled and then running the closing credits while shooing us out of the theater. But after this promising surreal beginning, the production turns into a series of obvious vignettes depicting Andy's greatest hits.
The low point comes late in the film, when a desperate Kaufman goes to the Philippines in search of a cancer cure from "psychic surgeons," con men who claimed to be able to prod a person's stomach with their hands and miraculously remove tumors without an incision.  But in the movie, Andy glances down and immediately spots the deception. The camera then comes in for a close-up of Kaufman smiling wryly; the prankster fooled by another group of pranksters. How tragic. How ironic. What a crock.
I'm glad that "Man on the Moon" has sparked a revival of interest in Andy Kaufman, but the bottom line is this. As much as I admired Kaufman's impersonation of Elvis Presley, I would much rather watch a documentary of the genuine article. And as much as I admire Jim Carrey's impersonation of Andy Kaufman, I'll skip future viewings of this superficial recreation and catch one of the numerous documentaries featuring the real man on cable.

## React Hooks and other perks.
_Gustavo A. Salazar_
## Creating a React App Simplest way: `create-react-app`
```bash
npx create-react-app lyrics-demo
cd lyrics-demo
npm start
```
After creation, your project should look like this:
```yml
my-app/
README.md
node_modules/
package.json
public/
index.html
favicon.ico
src/
App.css
App.js
App.test.js
index.css
index.js
logo.svg
```
## Creating a React App Language Features:
* Exponentiation Operator (ES2016).
* Async/await (ES2017).
* Object Rest/Spread Properties (ES2018).
* Dynamic import() (stage 4 proposal)
* Class Fields and Static Properties (part of stage 3 proposal).
* JSX, Flow and TypeScript.
## Creating a React App
Included Libraries:
* Webpack
* Babel
* Eslint
* Jest
* workbox-webpack-plugin
## Lyrics Demo
* We are going to build an app that let you select an artist.
* It will display the available songs.
* If the user selects one song, the app will display the lyrics.
**Challenge** Do it with just functional components
## Lyrics Demo
This is the wireframe:
![Image of the App Sketch](img/react2020/sketch.jpg)
## Lyrics Demo
That wireframe in react should look like:
### `App.js`
```javascript
import React from 'react';
import './App.css';
const App = () => {
return (
<div>
<h1>Lyrics Demo</h1>
<header>
<ArtistSelector />
<SongList />
</header>
<Lyrics />
</div>
);
}
const ArtistSelector = () => <div>ArtistSelector</div>;
const SongList = () => <div>SongList</div>;
const Lyrics = () => <div>Lyrics</div>;
export default App;
```
## Lyrics Demo
And let's make it look a bit better:
### `App.css`
```css
.lyrics-demo { color: gray; }
.lyrics-demo > h1 {
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
color: cornflowerblue;
}
.lyrics-demo > header {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
padding: 1em;
}
```
## Lyrics Demo
So let's extract the first component out of the App.
### `ArtistSelector.js`
```javascript
import React from 'react';
const ArtistSelector = ({ artists = [], onChange }) => (
<select onChange={onChange}>
{artists.map(artist => (
<option key={artist}>{artist}</option>
))}
</select>
);
export default ArtistSelector;
```
## Lyrics Demo
Here is some data
### `songsByArtists.json`
```json
{
"Amy Winehouse": ["Rehab", "Back to Black", "You know I'm not good"],
"Queen": ["Bicycle race", "Bohemian Rhapsody", "flash"],
"Judas Priest": ["Painkiller", "British Sti", ""],
"Japandroids": ["Young Hearts Spark Fire", "The boys are leaving town", "Wet Hair"],
"Jamiroquai": ["Virtual Insanity", "Cosmic Girl", "Deeper Underground"],
"LCD Soundsystem": ["oh baby", "loosing my age", "Dance Yrself clean"],
"Led Zeppeling": ["Communication Breakdown", "Stairway to heaven", "Rock and roll"],
"The Maccabees": ["Feel to follow", "Spit it out", "Wall of arms"],
"Muse": ["Supermassive Black Hole", "New Born", "Sunburn"],
"The National": ["Runaway", "Nobody Else Will Be There", "mr november"]
}
```
## Lyrics Demo
And using it in the App:
### `App.js`
```javascript
import React from 'react';
import './App.css';
import ArtistSelector from "./ArtistSelector";
import localData from "./songsByArtists.json";
const App = () => {
return (
<div className="lyrics-demo">
<h1>Lyrics Demo</h1>
<header>
<ArtistSelector artists={Object.keys(localData)}/>
<SongList />
</header>
<Lyrics />
</div>
);
}
const SongList = () => <div>SongList</div>;
const Lyrics = () => <div>Lyrics</div>;
export default App;
```
Lyrics Demo
Where are we going to store the selected artist?
Is react, save it in the state
But we are only using functional components!, remember?
Enter React Hooks
## But First - React: Lifecycle
![Image of the the React Lifecycle](img/react2020/react_lifecycle.jpg)
*@dan_abramov*
## React Hooks
Hooks are *JavaScript functions* that lets you “hook into” React features.
You need to follow two rules when using them:
* Only Call Hooks at the Top Level
* Only Call Hooks from React Functions
## React Hooks: _useState_
`useState` is a Hook that lets you add React state to function components.
```javascript
import React, { useState } from 'react';
function Example() {
// Declare a new state variable, which we'll call "count"
const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
return (
<div>
<p>You clicked {count} times</p>
<button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>
Click me
</button>
</div>
);
}
```
## Lyrics Demo
So let's hook our App with some state.
### `App.js`
```javascript
import React, { useState } from "react";
//...
const App = () => {
const [artist, setArtist] = useState(null);
const handleChange = evt => setArtist(evt.target.value);
return (
<div className="lyrics-demo">
<h1>Lyrics Demo</h1>
<header>
<ArtistSelector artists={Object.keys(localData)}
onChange={handleChange}
/>
<SongList/>
</header>
<Lyrics />
</div>
);
};
const Lyrics = ({artist ='', song=''}) => <h4>{song} by {artist}</h4>;
// ...
```
## React Context
Context provides a way to share values without having to explicitly pass a prop through every level of the tree.
**Apply it sparingly because it makes component reuse more difficult.**
Basicallly,
* A parent component **creates** a context.
* A parent component (could be the same), **provides** values for such context.
* A child component **consumes** the context, and gets the values given by the closes matching Provider.
## Lyrics Demo
First. We create the context in a separate module so it can be used in multiple parts
### `LyricsContext.js`
```javascript
import React from "react";
export const LyricsContext = React.createContext({
artist: '',
song: '',
});
```
## React Context
Now we can set the App component to be a Context provider.
```javascript
import {LyricsContext} from "./LyricsContext";
import Lyrics from "./Lyrics";
// ...
const App = () => {
// ...
return (
<LyricsContext.Provider value={{artist}}>
<div className="lyrics-demo">
// ...
</div>
</LyricsContext.Provider>
);
};
```
## React Context
And the Lyrics component will be a consumer of this context
```javascript
import React, { useContext } from "react";
import { LyricsContext } from "./LyricsContext";
const Lyrics = () => {
const { artist, song } = useContext(LyricsContext);
return (
<h4>
{song} by {artist}
</h4>
);
};
export default Lyrics;
```
And Just like that we used our second *Hook*: `useContext()`
## Lyrics Demo
Lets extract our SongList component
### `SongList.js`
```javascript
import React from "react";
const SongList = ({ songs = [], onClick }) => (
<ul>
{songs.map(song => (
<li key={song}>
<button onClick={() => onClick(song)}>{song}</button>
</li>
))}
</ul>
);
export default SongList;
```
## Lyrics Demo
And use it in our App component
### `SongList.js`
```javascript
// ...
import SongList from "./SongList";
// ...
const App = () => {
const [artist, setArtist] = useState(null);
const [song, setSong] = useState(null);
const songs = localData?.[artist] || [];
// ...
<SongList songs={songs} onClick={setSong}/>
```
## Getting Data
Simple API to retrieve the lyrics of a song:
https://lyricsovh.docs.apiary.io/
## Lyrics Demo
We need a function to fetch lyrics form that API:
### `Lyrics.js`
```javascript
// ...
const api = "https://api.lyrics.ovh/v1";
// ...
const [lyrics, setLyrics] = useState("");
const fetchLyrics = async (artist, song) => {
const response = await fetch(`${api}/${artist}/${song}/`);
const json = await response.json();
setLyrics(json.lyrics);
};
```
But when are we going to execute this function.
## React Hooks: _useEffect_
`useEffect` lets you perform side effects in function components.
* If you’re familiar with React class lifecycle methods, you can think of
`useEffect` Hook as `componentDidMount`, `componentDidUpdate`, and `componentWillUnmount` combined.
```javascript
useEffect(() => {
effect(); // Similar to componentDidMount + componentDidUpdate
return ()=>cleaning(); // think it as componentWillUnmount
},[...props]); // if any of these props changes the effect is executed.
```
## Lyrics Demo
So the UseEffect function for our app will be somehing like:
### `Lyrics.js`
```javascript
// ...
useEffect(() => {
if (artist && song) {
fetchLyrics(artist, song);
} else {
setLyrics("");
}
}, [artist, song]);
return (
<>
<h4>{song} by {artist}</h4>
<div>
<pre>{lyrics}</pre>
</div>
</>
);
// ...
```
## Voilà
![Image of the Lyrics demo](img/react2020/LyricsDemo.png)
## Additional Hooks
* `useReducer`
* `useCallback`
* `useMemo`
* `useRef`
* `useImperativeHandle`
* `useLayoutEffect`
* `useDebugValue`
## Custom Hooks
Building your own Hooks lets you extract component logic into reusable functions.
A custom Hook is a JavaScript function whose name starts with `use` and that may call other Hooks.

Offline Mode
First, subscribe and disconnect.
var mqtt = require("mqtt");
var client = mqtt.createClient({
clientId: "moscaslides",
clean: false
}).subscribe("mosca/demo/offline", { qos: 1 }, function() {
alert("subscribe done!");
// called when the subscribe is successful
client.end();
});
Offline Mode
Then, someone else publish an important message:
var mqtt = require("mqtt");
var client = mqtt.createClient();
client.publish("mosca/demo/offline",
"hello world!",
{ qos: 1 }, function() {
alert("publish done!");
client.end();
});
Offline Mode
When our first client reconnect, it receives all the missed messages, in order.
var mqtt = require("mqtt");
var client = mqtt.createClient({
clientId: "moscaslides",
clean: false
});
client.on("message", function(topic, payload) {
console.log(arguments);
alert([topic, payload.toString()].join(": "));
setTimeout(client.end.bind(client), 1000);
});
Does Offline Mode Scale?
Thanks!

Nothing really easier than a translation matrix.
All you really have to do is keep track of which axis you would like to translate.
For our case, it is important to have only one axis translation at the time. Meaning that if we translate x by 2 units, then dx = 2 and dy = dz = 0. This is important because we need to keep a good track of which rotations and translations we do as we need to gradualy move towards the next link. Messing with the order will definitely give you the wrong answers and thus make your manipulator potentially move to obstacles or even worse force itself in positions impossible.
Let's go through all the elementary rotations and translations seen so far one more time as it is most crucial to have a clear understanding of these matrices.

Human Firearm Interaction Detection: I have been working on Human Object Interaction problems, leveraging firearm as object. Localizing objects in the complex scenario and associate it with right candidate (human) is a challenging problem. Attention-based methods are explored to overcome the challenges of cluttered environment where object interaction could be wrongly associated to human. |
|
Firearm Detection: : I have worked on weakly supervised object detection with application to firearms. Without using oriented bounding box, our proposed method predicts oriented bounding boxes. Using axis aligned boxes and angle information (easy to annotate than oriented bounding boxes) in the pipeline, our method effectively mitigates background noise in axis aligned boxes. |

Medical Image Analysis: As a semester project, I have worked on predicting the blindness indirectly using retinal layers images with choroidal neovascular and diabetic macular edema categories. As a third category, drusen (for vision weakness) and fourth is the normal. The prediction of blindness helps for anti vascular endothelial growth factor treatment, that stops the retinal disease and make eye vision properly working. |

AUD/NZD on thin ice in bearish territory, balancing on a 38.2% Fibo support level
by Ross J Burland- AUD/NZD holding sideways following surprise RBNZ hold.
- RBA minutes on the cards and traders seek clarification on a dovish bias.
The AUD/NZD pair was little moved overnight, extending along a sideways trajectory between 1.06 and 1.0650 in the main. Today, the cross is up a fraction of a percentage point having traded between 1.0624 and 1.0645.
It's been a lacklustre start for the commodity-FX space, but today's focus will turn to the minutes of the November Reserve Bank of Australia meeting due today. Traders will be interested to see what they are able to glean from the text.
RBA minutes coming up
It will be interesting to see if there is any concern for the employment in the nation that fell 19k in October. The data indicated the first drop in three years, while illustrating that rate cuts have not been particularly supportive of the Aussie jobs market. There has also been a wage growth slowdown, seen in the Q3 Wage Price Index.
What we have seen is a sharp rise in housing prices which usually helps out the consumer and retail sector. However, this all takes time and market sentiment remains that the central bank leans with a dovish bias. Should the RBA cut further, AUD will likely find its self on the receiving end of a market fleeing from it which opens the case of a test below the psychological 0.65 handle – "Markets are pricing a 20% chance of easing at the Dec RBA meeting, and a terminal rate of 0.50% (RBA cash rate currently at 0.75%)," analysts at Westpac noted.
RBNZ surprised financial markets with surprise hold, wait and see
On the other end of the cross, the NZD has been holding territories above the 200-hour moving average as well as the 21-day moving following a surprise outcome for financial markets when the RBNZ did not cut interest rates when it met last week. However, at least the door is ajar and observers have their eyes on an OCR down to 0.5% which is bearish for the bird – "Market pricing for RBNZ implies a 40% chance of easing in February, with a terminal rate of 0.84%," analysts at Westpac pointed out.
AUD/USD & AUD/NZD levels
Firstly, looking to AUD/USD, it has been capped by the vicinity of the 200-day moving average at the start of this month with the price respecting the descending trend line resistance. The pair dropped below the 21-DMA which brings in the lower bound of the Bollinger bands on a break of the September rising channel support. 0.6730s are a line in the sand which guard space to the YTD lows in the 0.6660s before the 0.65 handle. On a break of the 200-DMA, bulls will seek a run to the 0.7020s which meets the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of the 2018 highs to July 2019 lows.
For the cross, AUD/NZD, it is in strongly bearish territories at this juncture. The 4-hour moving averages are steeply bearish and the cross is now testing the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of the Aug to YTD highs. This is a level that meets the Sep lows and should it give our, bears will be licking their lips for a test back to the 1.0550s and a confluence of the 200-day moving average.

How to program a text adventure in C
by Ruud Helderman
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Licensed under
MIT License
5. Inventory
We will now make it possible for actors to ‘hold’ items.
In the previous chapter, we made an array to store all objects, including the player himself.
By considering the player as an object,
we make the player an integrated part of the game,
instead of a spectator watching the virtual world from a safe distance.
The advantage of this approach becomes most obvious in a game with multiple player characters
(either MUD-style
or a single-player game where you can switch between different characters),
but it is equally useful in a solo mission.
Player attributes no longer have to be stored in separate variables;
we can use the same data structure as used for any other object.
So the player, being an object:
- has a location (“where am I?”)
- is a location for any items the player may be holding.
This makes certain common actions very easy to implement:
| Action |
Typical command |
Example |
| player->location = cave; |
| listObjectsAtLocation(cave); |
| silver->location = player; |
| silver->location = player->location; |
| listObjectsAtLocation(player); |
| silver->location = guard; |
| silver->location = player; |
| listObjectsAtLocation(guard); |
| Sample output |
Welcome to Little Cave Adventure.
You are in an open field.

You see:
a silver coin
a gold coin
--> inventory
You are empty-handed.
--> quit
Bye!
|
Commands go and look (the first two examples above)
were already implemented in the previous chapter.
Now we will introduce some typical inventory actions
for both the player and the non-player characters (commands
get, drop, give, ask and inventory).
| parsexec.c |
- #include <stdbool.h>
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include <string.h>
- #include "location.h"
- #include "inventory.h"
- bool parseAndExecute(char *input)
- {
- char *verb = strtok(input, " \n");
- char *noun = strtok(NULL, " \n");
- if (verb != NULL)
- {
- if (strcmp(verb, "quit") == 0)
- {
- return false;
- }
- else if (strcmp(verb, "look") == 0)
- {
- executeLook(noun);
- }
- else if (strcmp(verb, "go") == 0)
- {
- executeGo(noun);
- }
- else if (strcmp(verb, "get") == 0)
- {
- executeGet(noun);
- }
- else if (strcmp(verb, "drop") == 0)
- {
- executeDrop(noun);
- }
- else if (strcmp(verb, "give") == 0)
- {
- executeGive(noun);
- }
- else if (strcmp(verb, "ask") == 0)
- {
- executeAsk(noun);
- }
- else if (strcmp(verb, "inventory") == 0)
- {
- executeInventory();
- }
- else
- {
- printf("I don't know how to '%s'.\n", verb);
- }
- }
- return true;
- }
|
Explanation:
- Line 5:
another new module is included.
- Line 25-44:
adding these 20 lines makes the game recognize five more commands.
The new commands are implemented by the following module.
| inventory.h |
- extern void executeGet(const char *noun);
- extern void executeDrop(const char *noun);
- extern void executeAsk(const char *noun);
- extern void executeGive(const char *noun);
- extern void executeInventory(void);
|
| inventory.c |
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include "object.h"
- #include "misc.h"
- #include "noun.h"
- #include "move.h"
- void executeGet(const char *noun)
- {
- OBJECT *obj = getVisible("what you want to get", noun);
- if (obj == NULL)
- {
- // already handled by getVisible
- }
- else if (obj == player)
- {
- printf("You should not be doing that to yourself.\n");
- }
- else if (obj->location == player)
- {
- printf("You already have %s.\n", obj->description);
- }
- else if (obj->location == guard)
- {
- printf("You should ask %s nicely.\n", obj->location->description);
- }
- else
- {
- moveObject(obj, player);
- }
- }
- void executeDrop(const char *noun)
- {
- moveObject(getPossession(player, "drop", noun), player->location);
- }
- void executeAsk(const char *noun)
- {
- moveObject(getPossession(actorHere(), "ask", noun), player);
- }
- void executeGive(const char *noun)
- {
- moveObject(getPossession(player, "give", noun), actorHere());
- }
- void executeInventory(void)
- {
- if (listObjectsAtLocation(player) == 0)
- {
- printf("You are empty-handed.\n");
- }
- }
|
Explanation:
- Line 9, 34, 39, 44:
functions getVisible and getPossession
are used to determine which object belongs to a given noun;
see noun.c below.
- Line 28, 34, 39, 44:
function moveObject
is used to transport the object to its new location;
see move.c below.
- Line 39, 44:
due to the simplicity of our verb-noun parser,
commands ask and give have only one argument: the item.
The actor involved is implied by using function actorHere
(defined below).
- Line 49:
function listObjectsAtLocation
was already defined in the previous chapter (misc.c).
Its return value tells us how many objects were found.
- Line 51:
the user expects some response, even when the list of objects is empty.
Essentially, commands get, drop, give and ask
do little more than move an item from one place to another.
A single function moveObject
can perform that action for all four commands.
| move.h |
- extern void moveObject(OBJECT *obj, OBJECT *to);
|
| move.c |
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include "object.h"
- static void describeMove(OBJECT *obj, OBJECT *to)
- {
- if (to == player->location)
- {
- printf("You drop %s.\n", obj->description);
- }
- else if (to != player)
- {
- printf(to == guard ? "You give %s to %s.\n" : "You put %s in %s.\n",
- obj->description, to->description);
- }
- else if (obj->location == player->location)
- {
- printf("You pick up %s.\n", obj->description);
- }
- else
- {
- printf("You get %s from %s.\n",
- obj->description, obj->location->description);
- }
- }
- void moveObject(OBJECT *obj, OBJECT *to)
- {
- if (obj == NULL)
- {
- // already handled by getVisible or getPossession
- }
- else if (to == NULL)
- {
- printf("There is nobody here to give that to.\n");
- }
- else if (obj->location == NULL)
- {
- printf("That is way too heavy.\n");
- }
- else
- {
- describeMove(obj, to);
- obj->location = to;
- }
- }
|
Explanation:
- Line 6-23:
various messages to confirm that the move was successful.
Alternatively, we could have given a simple ‘OK’.
- Line 28-39:
various conditions under which the move will not take place.
- Line 32-35:
there is only one possibility for the item’s destination to be NULL:
when trying to ‘give’ something
at a location where the player is alone.
- Line 36-39:
some objects are not meant to be picked up;
for example field and cave.
The condition to recognize those objects, is still rather crude here.
For example, it is currently possible to pick up the guard.
This will be improved in chapter 10.
- Line 43:
the core of the function; here the object is actually moved.
Command ‘get’ uses function getVisible
to translate a noun to an object,
just like command ‘go’ does; see the previous chapter.
But for commands that operate on objects the player (or some other actor)
is already holding (drop, ask, give),
we need something slightly different.
We will add a function getPossession to noun.c.
| noun.h |
- extern OBJECT *getVisible(const char *intention, const char *noun);
- extern OBJECT *getPossession(OBJECT *from, const char *verb, const char *noun);
|
| noun.c |
- #include <stdbool.h>
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include <string.h>
- #include "object.h"
- static bool objectHasTag(OBJECT *obj, const char *noun)
- {
- return noun != NULL && *noun != '\0' && strcmp(noun, obj->tag) == 0;
- }
- static OBJECT *getObject(const char *noun)
- {
- OBJECT *obj, *res = NULL;
- for (obj = objs; obj < endOfObjs; obj++)
- {
- if (objectHasTag(obj, noun))
- {
- res = obj;
- }
- }
- return res;
- }
- OBJECT *getVisible(const char *intention, const char *noun)
- {
- OBJECT *obj = getObject(noun);
- if (obj == NULL)
- {
- printf("I don't understand %s.\n", intention);
- }
- else if (!(obj == player ||
- obj == player->location ||
- obj->location == player ||
- obj->location == player->location ||
- obj->location == NULL ||
- obj->location->location == player ||
- obj->location->location == player->location))
- {
- printf("You don't see any %s here.\n", noun);
- obj = NULL;
- }
- return obj;
- }
- OBJECT *getPossession(OBJECT *from, const char *verb, const char *noun)
- {
- OBJECT *obj = NULL;
- if (from == NULL)
- {
- printf("I don't understand who you want to %s.\n", verb);
- }
- else if ((obj = getObject(noun)) == NULL)
- {
- printf("I don't understand what you want to %s.\n", verb);
- }
- else if (obj == from)
- {
- printf("You should not be doing that to %s.\n", obj->description);
- obj = NULL;
- }
- else if (obj->location != from)
- {
- if (from == player)
- {
- printf("You are not holding any %s.\n", noun);
- }
- else
- {
- printf("There appears to be no %s you can get from %s.\n",
- noun, from->description);
- }
- obj = NULL;
- }
- return obj;
- }
|
Explanation:
- Line 45-75:
Just like function getVisible,
the new function getPossession is a wrapper around getObject
(see line 52)
that either returns a matching object,
or NULL if no appropriate object matches the noun.
Function actorHere is used in commands give and ask,
but it could be useful for other commands as well.
So we define it in misc.c.
| misc.h |
- extern OBJECT *actorHere(void);
- extern int listObjectsAtLocation(OBJECT *location);
|
| misc.c |
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include "object.h"
- OBJECT *actorHere(void)
- {
- OBJECT *obj;
- for (obj = objs; obj < endOfObjs; obj++)
- {
- if (obj->location == player->location && obj == guard)
- {
- return obj;
- }
- }
- return NULL;
- }
- int listObjectsAtLocation(OBJECT *location)
- {
- int count = 0;
- OBJECT *obj;
- for (obj = objs; obj < endOfObjs; obj++)
- {
- if (obj != player && obj->location == location)
- {
- if (count++ == 0)
- {
- printf("You see:\n");
- }
- printf("%s\n", obj->description);
- }
- }
- return count;
- }
|
Explanation:
- Line 4-15:
function actorHere returns a pointer to the actor
present at the same location as the player,
or NULL if the player is alone.
In line 9 there is an exhaustive, hard-coded list of non-player characters
(up until now, just one: the guard).
In chapter 10, we will start using an attribute as a more elegant way
to distinguish actors from items and other non-actor objects.
The other modules (main.c, location.c, object.c)
remain unchanged,
you can see them in the previous chapters.
In chapter 12, you will see us add more commands.
But first, we will be making some improvements to command go.

Overview
The Course Project is worth a significant portion of your grade. It offers you the chance to apply your newly acquired skills towards an in-depth application.
Your project can be on any topic of your choice related to deep learning for NLP. To be precise: That means that the project should make substantive use of deep learning and substative use of human language data. You also have the option of doing a default final project (aka Assignment 4) that we will provide scaffolding code for. This will be similar to the other assignments but longer and more open-ended.
Here is a list of project ideas from Stanford researchers!
To inspire more ideas, you might look at recent deep learning publications from top-tier NLP conferences and labs:
We have included below some pretty cool papers for further inspiration.
Important Dates
Course project proposal (only for students not doing the default final project): due February 9.
The poster session will be held 12:15-3:15pm on March 21.
Final course project: due
March 17 (11:59pm).
Students proposing their own project are
required to have a mentor who will provide high-level guidance for the project. You must find a mentor before submitting your project proposal. To find a mentor
- Contact them in office hours or through email. Briefly go over your background, interests, and ideas you have for the project.
- If they agree to mentor you, email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>with your mentor cc'd. In the email state who your mentor is as well as the names and SUNetIDs of the people in your team.
Here are the mentors affiliated with cs224n:
However, you are free to ask anyone else (such as other Stanford faculty and grad students) to mentor you as long as they have substantial experience with deep learning.
Mentors will take up to 25 teams each on a first-come-first-serve basis, so it is recommended you contact them early!
Grading Policy
The final project is worth 30% for your grade (with your poster presentation comprising additional 2%).
You are allowed to work in groups of up to 3 people and may use up to 3 late days.
See the
grading page for more details.
Project Proposal
The project proposal should be a few short paragraphs (200-400 words overall). If you are doing the default final project, you do not need to submit a proposal.
If you do not submit a proposal on time, you have to do the default final project. Your proposal should contain the following headings:
-
Mentor: Who is your mentor for the project? You should have already emailed<EMAIL_ADDRESS>with this information.
-
Problem Description: What is the problem that you will be investigating? Why is it interesting?
-
Data: What data will you use? If you are collecting new datasets, how do you plan to collect them?
-
Methodology/Algorithm: What method or algorithm are you proposing? If there are existing implementations, will you use them and how? How do you plan to improve or modify such implementations?
-
Related Work: What reading will you examine to provide context and background?
-
Evaluation Plan: How will you evaluate your results? Qualitatively, what kind of results do you expect (e.g. plots or figures)? Quantitatively, what kind of analysis will you use to evaluate and/or compare your results (e.g. what performance metrics or statistical tests)?
Submission: Please upload one proposal per team on Gradescope.
Final Submission
Your final write-up should be between
6 - 8 pages using the
provided template. After the class, we will post all the final reports online so that you can read about each others' work. If you do not want your writeup to be posted online, then please let us know when you submit your writeup.
You should include a brief statement on the contributions of different members of the team. Team members will normally get the same grade, but we reserve the right to differentiate in egregious cases.
Submit your final submission as instructed below:
- A PDF file of your final report submitted through Gradescope.
- A zip file with supplementary materials through our submission script. You are required to include all the code for your project in the supplementary materials.
Report. The following is a suggested structure for the report:
- Title, Author(s)
- Abstract: It should not be more than 300 words
- Introduction: this section introduces your problem, and the overall plan for approaching your problem
- Background/Related Work: This section discusses relevant literature for your project
- Approach: This section details the framework of your project. Be specific, which means you might want to include equations, figures, plots, etc
- Experiments: This section begins with what kind of experiments you're doing, what kind of dataset(s) you're using, and what is the way you measure or evaluate your results. It then shows in details the results of your experiments. By details, we mean both quantitative evaluations (show numbers, figures, tables, etc) as well as qualitative results (show images, example results, etc).
- Conclusion: What have you learned? Suggest future ideas.
- References: This is absolutely necessary.
Supplementary Material is not counted toward your 6-8 page limit.
Examples of things to put in your supplementary material:
- Source code (required).
- Cool videos, interactive visualizations, demos, etc. (optional)
Examples of things to not put in your supplementary material:
- All of a submodules (Theano, Caffe, CoreNLP) source code.
- Any code that is larger than 1MB.
- Model checkpoints.
- A computer virus.
Poster Session
We will hold a poster session in which you will present the results of your projects im the form of a poster. The poster session will happen on Match 21st, 12:15-3:15pm (location: Lathrop second floor). Poster boards and easels will be provided.
Example Project Reports
Your project reports should structure like a NLP conference paper (NIPS, ICML, EMNLP, ACL, etc.). You can find publications from Stanford NLP Group from
here. In addition, you may also take a look at some previous projects from other Stanford CS classes, such as
CS221,
CS229,
CS224W and
CS231n as well as previous
cs224n and
cs224d projects.
Collaboration Policy
You can work in teams of up to
3 people. Larger teams are expected to do larger projects. See the
grading page for more details.
Honor Code
You may use any existing code, libraries, etc. and consult and any papers, books, online references, etc. for your project. However, you must cite your sources in your writeup and clearly indicate which parts of the project are your contribution and which parts were implemented by others. Under no circumstances may you look at another cs224n group’s code or incorporate their code into your project.
If you are doing a similar project for another class, you must make this clear and write down the exact portion of the project that is being counted for CS224n.
