Dear CMSE802 Students,

Here are the videos from the last class. Remember that Agent Based Model (ABM) reports are due today.

Have a wonderful weekend and a fun/safe Halloween,

Dear CMSE802 Students,

I just posted our video for today. I messed up and forgot to hit record for part if it but overall I think the important points are included.

Let me know if you need anything

Dear CMSE802 Students,

I updated what we were doing with the anthill_simulation git repo we were working on in class. Please review the code and if you are interested and have time, make a branch and see if you can finish up the design.

I posted the video from class here:

During office hours, one of your fellow students mentioned some confusion with getting unit testing working on windows. Turns out the instructions are fairly bad. I just reviewed the instructions and pushed out some updates that will hopefully make things easier.

I also posted assignments for next week. Please do a git pull on the master repository and let me know if you have any questions.

Take care,

Dear CMSE802 Students,

Sorry for the weird class today. Turns out I also forgot to turn on video recording so we only got the last part of class. Oh well, hopefully some of you will find this review of the superbug's code helpful.

Remember that your next milestone is due on Friday. For this milestone you will be setting up your project to do unit testing. Let me know if you have any questions.

Take care,

Dear CMSE802 Students,

Here are some action items:

  1. I would like to make sure we keep track of what we learned today. Please add comments to the google doc and share any code you have as a branch and pull request. I will try to combine all of our notes into a report and send it to Scott (cc'ed). Please email me if you have any comments, questions or concerns.
  2. I went ahead and pushed the changes we made after class to the evaluate_captioning repository. I also added in a jupyter notebook to simplify testing. Please do a git pull on the repository and check it out. I will see if we have time next week to talk about it a little more.
  3. Remember that your Graph Theory Reports are due tomorrow.
  4. I posted next week's assignments so please feel free to start the pre-classes whenever you have the time

Here is the video from today. It is a little longer than most of our videos but i included some of the discussion that we had after class. Some of you may want to fast forward to the end if you are curious:

Overall I thought the class went great today! Thank you for coming with an open mind and really helping out to solve the problem. In the end we were able to speed up the code from 50 seconds to compare a 2500 word transcript to 0.01 seconds using a string comparison library. I also really liked the idea of doing a preprocessing step before the comparison. I think I got preprocessing working but the comparison numbers are not changing so I am not sure. We probably need to run a few tests to validate if everything is working as expected.

Take care and have a wonderful weekend,

Dear CMSE802 Students,

I hope you had fun in class today. Here are some videos from todays class:

This week we have the Graph Theory Report due. See you in class on Thursday.

Dear CMSE802 Students,

I hope you had fun in class today. I really like this assignment because it gives us all kinds of practice without a lot of stress. Here is the video in case you want to review:

Don't forget that your "Automatic Documentation" Milestone project is due tomorrow. See you all next week.

Dear CMSE802 Students,

I Forgot a setting on the gitlab repository that was made in class today. This setting prevented students from committing files to the master branch. I had the management group fix the setting so now all of you should be able to do a git clone, git add, git commit and git push your function files. Please try to do this in the next couple of days so we are ready to finish things up on Thursday.

I just posted the videos for today's lecture on the course website. the following are direct links to the videos:

Looking forward to finishing up this exercise on Thursday.

Take care,
