Topic outline

  • Rules and arrangements

    The course will have six compulsory individual assignments making up 50% of the final grade. The assignments will be introduced in the exercise sessions. Instructions and materials will appear on this page.

    Each assignment will be graded and the assignments constitute towards the course grade.

    Keep in mind that the assignments and quizzes are to be completed individually by each student. While it is perfectly fine to discuss the algorithms, implementations and the concepts taught in the course with your peers, directly sharing answers, data or code will not be accepted. In short—share ideas, not answers.

    Remember to submit all your solutions on time, and double check that your submission contains all the necessary files, as listed at the end of the assignment instruction document. We do not accept any submissions or additional files after the submission system in MyCourses closes. The only exceptions are in well justified cases such as illness (supported by a proper certificate) or military service. If you cannot submit the assignment on time due to university-related reasons, such as attending a conference, please inform the course staff in advance.

    Exercise Sessions

    There are three exercise sessions per week in which you can ask questions about the lectures and exercises. Attendance is optional. The sessions take place online: https://aalto.zoom.us/j/64468034932?pwd=RlpYd2grYkNVQUdJKy8zQWF6VHdKdz09
