Project: Progress Report
Due date: Oct/27
Your progress report should extend your proposal and include a literature review and a description of
the work you have accomplished on your project so far. You can also discuss any changes to your
project plans, and provide an updated timeline for your project.
Propose a model and an approach for tackling your task. You should describe the model and possible
algorithms in detail, and use a concrete example to demonstrate how the model and algorithms work.
Gather any necessary data and implement a simple baseline system. Describe the data and the
preliminary results of your baseline system. You should basically have all the infrastructure (e.g.,
algorithm implementation, cleaning data, building a simulator) completed to do something interesting
by now.
The related works section (a.k.a. literature review) should include relevant references (at least 4
papers per algorithm) with bibliographic citations. For each of the references you should write a few
sentences briefly describing what that reference talks about and the approach taken in it, and
comparing it to your own work. Your work can follow the same lines or can take a different approach.
What is important is to show some mastery of the relevant work done by others on the subject of your
project.
Your progress report should be 3-5 pages and have the following sections: title, names of team
members, introduction, related works, preliminary results, research plan and references.
You must format your report using one of the following templates.

Grading Rubric
Reports will be graded according to the following components.
a. Introduction
(30pts)
Background and significance section clearly identifies a research gap to be
addressed by the research project, and creates a strong case for conducting the
project. Specific objectives are concisely presented, are in a logical order, and
are feasible.
b. Related
Works
(30pts)
Literature review is clearly organized, logically developed and concise, and
identifies gaps in knowledge base that provides basis for the project.
Appropriate sources are cited when specific statements are made.
c. Experiments
(30pts)
Preliminary results are clearly presented, connected to the specific aims, as well
as to the research gap identified in the introduction. Figures and tables are
clearly labeled and described, are free from clutter or visual distractions, and
correspond to references to them in the body of the report.
d. Research
Plan
(5pts)
Plan offered to address remaining specific objectives logically flow from
preliminary results and are feasible.
e. Writing
(5pts)
Overall quality of the writing shows the writer’s control over his/her prose,
including concise and clear wording, effective use of headings and subheadings,
and avoidance of [login to view URL] 2 of 2
Each component will be graded as
o Excellent, Exceeds Expectations (5 points)
o Good, Superior (4 points)
o Sufficient, Meets Expectations (3 points)
o Needs work, Incomplete (2 points)
o Poor, Unacceptable (1 point)
o Absent (0 point)
Hello, I read the project and I can do the job. So if you are interesting just contact me. I have experience with Matlab and Genetic Algorithms too, I use genetic algorithms to solve the problem of parameter estimation in differential equations.
Please contact me,
