# P6 Programming Problem Instruction

📗 Enter your ID (the wisc email ID without @wisc.edu) here: and click (or hit enter key)
📗 The official deadline is August 15, but you can submit or resubmit without penalty until August 15.
📗 The same ID should generate the same set of questions. Your answers are not saved when you close the browser. You could either copy and paste or load your program outputs into the text boxes for individual questions or print all your outputs to a single text file and load it using the button at the bottom of the page.
📗 Please do not refresh the page: your answers will not be saved.
📗 You should implement the algorithms using the mathematical formulas from the slides. You can use packages and libraries to preprocess and read the data and format the outputs. It is not recommended that you use machine learning packages or libraries, but you will not lose points for doing so.
📗 Please report any bugs on Piazza.

# Warning: please enter your ID before you start!


📗 (Introduction) You can use any dataset you prefer, including the datasets you used in a previous homework or from another course. You have to implement at least one machine learning or search algorithm from the list below. This homework will be graded manually after the final exam.

📗 (Part 1) The list of algorithms you can build from scratch:
(1) Neural network with more than two hidden layers.
(2) Support vector machines.
(3) Bayesian network.
(4) Gaussian mixture model.
(5) Reinforcement Q-learning.
(6) Minimax with alpha-beta pruning.

📗 (Part 1) The list of algorithms you can build with a machine learning package:
(1) Convolutional neural network.
(2) Recurrent neural network.
(3) Generative adversarial network.

📗 (Part 2) Please submit a short report to explain what you did. Your report should include the following sections:
(1) Introduction: explain the algorithm, the dataset, and the problem you are solving.
(2) Algorithm: explain if you made any modifications to the algorithm from the lecture slides.
(3) Dataset: explain if you did any preprocessing on the dataset.
(4) Result: explain the performance of algorithm on the dataset and anything else interesting you found.
(5) References and attributions.

📗 (Part 2) Please submit the code you wrote for the project. Please do not include the packages and libraries you used. Please do not include the dataset.

# Question 1

📗 [1 points] Which algorithm did you implement or use? .

# Question 2

📗 [2 points] What dataset did you use and/or what problem were you trying to solve? (One or two sentences.) .

# Question 3

📗 [1 points] Your implementation is working and produces a reasonable output.

# Question 4

📗 [1 points] You are going to submit a short report (a PDF file) of the results on Canvas.

# Question 5

📗 [1 points] You are going to submit your code (but NOT the packages, libraries, and datasets) on Canvas.

# Question 6

📗 [10 points] Subjective grade of the quality of the project in comparison to other students' submission.

# Question 7

📗 [10 points] Subjective grade of the difficulty of the project in comparison with P1 to P5.

# Question 8

📗 [10 points] Subjective grade of the creativity of the project.

# Question 9

📗 [3 points] You can suggest a grade out of 30 for the previous three questions and provide an explanation (not an essay, please, I will look at your report too).

# Question 10

📗 [1 points] Please enter any comments and suggestions including possible mistakes and bugs with the questions and the auto-grading, and materials relevant to solving the question that you think are not covered well during the lectures. If you have no comments, please enter "None": do not leave it blank.
