  • The project will require the analysis of a network dataset. The analyses will be derived from at least two broad classes of techniques from the lectures: network science, optimization, and community structures. While an infrastructure dataset would be preferred, students are encouraged to find a network dataset of their interest. An example repository is here: http://networkrepository.com/. The application of techniques from the lectures can be performed from source code found online, as long as proper references and acknowledgment are provided.

    A project proposal, due at the lecture on April 5, will provide an overview of the dataset to be used for the project and the motivation for why it was selected. The project proposal, which should be two pages, must include: (i) abstract, (ii) description of the problem, (iii) detailed description of the data to be used, (iv) challenges and possible issues, and (v) expected analyses/outcomes. Once the project proposal has been approved by the instructors, the students will work on the final project report, due at the end of the course, which will provide an analysis of the dataset using the selected techniques discussed in class and the proposal.

    The final project, of eight pages or less, must include: (i) abstract, (ii) description and motivation of the problem, (iii) a methodological section that discusses the mathematical and computational tools used, (iv) results of the project, including a descriptive analysis of the network(s) used, along with other analyses performed, (v) conclusions, that should include remarks from the project and tools used, ideas for future work, and a discussion on how what you learned and practiced in the project could be used in other engineering contexts of interest to you, and (v) references.

    The results of the projects will be presented in the lecture on April 26. The presentations should be a minimum of 10 minutes long but can be slightly longer. Your presentation should obviously include slides because networks are very visual things. The aim is primarily to let the other students attending the course see what cool stuff you have done.
