Machine Learning in Cyber Security

The mid-term presentations will take place during the regular tutorial hours next week: 11-Jan 12:00 - 14:00.

Some additional information:

• Timeslot/Location: The presentations will be organized as a 1:1 between the team and their tutor. You will receive the exact timeslot (between 12:00-14:00) and location information from your tutor in the next few days.
• Presentation: Each team will have 8 mins for the presentation, followed by 12 mins of discussion. For the presentation, we recommend 1 min for the problem statement, 4 mins for your approach and results, 3 mins on your roadmap for the next three weeks. During the discussion, we hope to provide you meaningful feedback to guide you towards a strong final project submission.
• Grading: The presentation will not be graded. Nonetheless, our experience suggests that the quality of the feedback received to be proportional to the time invested in the project and presentation. 

Dear all,

We have received some feedbacks about project 3. Therefore, we would like to announce and clarify a few points below. 

First, the timeline this year is roughly the same as the one in the last year, which means the workload isn’t affected by the reduced semester, but we also realized students may have heavier loading in this special semester. As a result, we don’t treat the submission of proposals as a hard deadline. You can submit the proposal later, but it should not be later than Dec. 24. Meanwhile, students who submit proposals on time will receive feedbacks on time as planned. Note that the overall timeline of project 3 still remains the same, so please start earlier.

Second, as explained by Professor, we plan to have the oral exam according to the following schedule. Please note that four days are all first exams, not re-exams. Students will be assigned to four days based on their preference, or we would assign them otherwise.

MLCySec exams

Scheduled: Feb 10, 2021, to Feb 11, 2021

MLCySec Exams

Scheduled: Apr 8, 2021, to Apr 9, 2021

Last, since the earliest oral exam happens on Feb. 10, we plan to have the project presentation on Feb. 4 and the submission of reports will be due on Feb. 8. More details, e.g., presentation orders and duration, will come up after.

 

Best,

Your tutors.
