Homework 1: Exploration
Form a group of 2-3 members for your team project.
Go to [People → Team Projects*] in Canvas and add your team members to the same group.
Create an Overleaf project with the following naming convention: CS371-Lastname1_Lastname2_Lastname3
(replace the last names with yours in alphabetical order).
Provide a concise and descriptive title that accurately reflects your project.
Update the author information to include all team members.
Share the Overleaf project with your teammates and instructors, granting them "Can Edit" permissions (refer to the instructor information here).
Submit the URL of your shared Overleaf project to Canvas.
Go to [People -> Progress Reports*] in Canvas and select a date for your progress report presentation.
Ensure that each phase of the progress report has only one team member assigned to it.
Team Assignment (0.6 points): Is the team formed?
Overleaf: Is the team Overleaf project shared? (0.2 points)
Progress Report: Is the date for the progress report presentation chosen? (0.2 points)
This chapter delves into a range of research areas in AI and provides an overview of the available resources based on faculty interests.
Explore diverse research areas within the domain of Artificial Intelligence.
Go to [People → 1.1. Research Areas*] in Canvas and select a research area.
Visit the conference websites relevant to the selected research area and examine their programs and proceedings to categorize the pertinent fields of study.
Analyze the latest trends in your specific research fields of interest and explore the state-of-the-art approaches and methodologies employed in those fields.
For each group member, conduct a brief literature survey and identify two potential research ideas based on the survey.
Make slides summarizing the above activities for a short presentation (one per group) and submit them to [Assignments → Exercises → 1.1. Research Areas] in Canvas.
Familiarize yourself with the ongoing research interests and focus areas of the faculty members at Emory CS.
Go to [People → 1.2. Faculty Interests*] in Canvas and select a professor.
Visit the selected professor's website to ascertain one's research areas of focus.
Review the professor's publications to gain insights into one's ongoing research projects.
For each group member, identify two potential research ideas that align with the professor's areas of expertise and are of interest to you (for potential collaboration).
Make slides summarizing the above activities for a short presentation (one per group) and submit them to [Assignments → Exercises → 1.2. Faculty Interests] in Canvas.
