Projects

Description

Students will collaborate in groups of 1 or 2 persons to complete a project on Generative AI for Biomedicine. These projects should have some AI and Biomedical applications.

Project Proposal

You proposal should describe:

  • What Biomedical problem are you planning to address? -- what are the technical challenges?
  • What are the existing state-of-art methods on this problem? Is the source code/model available? 
  • Possible directions for going forward. 
  • How do you evaluate the performance?
  • Who is your team and how are you planning to split the workload between team members?
  • A rough timeline/milestones
  • What CPU, GPU and storage infrastructure do need for this project? Please estimate the amount of computation time required.  

Project Report

  • Introduction/Motivation: This essentially lays out the problem definition, motivation, talks about why we need to work on it, the key contributions expected/presented in the work. 
  • Related Work/Background: This talks about key papers/works that provide context to your current work. Instead of listing down multiple past works, talk about the ones that minimally differ from your work, and how. 
  • Methodology: This section talks about your method, raises research questions and how you are going to address them.
  • Experiments: This section can describe your experiments and the results you obtain. 
  • Analysis/Ablations: Typically, you would have multiple factors involved in your experimental setting. Analysis sections help you probe deeper into the results and help piece out contributions from individual modeling decisions made. 
  • Conclusion/Discussion: This would list the main takeaways from your work, discuss some future ideas (if any) and engage in discussion. 
  • Limitations: This section lays out some known limitations of your work. 
  • [final report only] Team Member Contributions List out each individual's contributions in this section.
