This is your project assignment. Please read the instructions before starting your work.
Do not understand the assignment as an exhaustive TODO list, rather the questions below are hints that are meant to guide you and allow for a smoother start. Do not feel limited by the questions; we want to see you diving into it.
This is your specific project assignment. The project applies
topics from the course on real or simulated data, or is about
concepts we haven't covered yet. Work yourself into the data and
the topic and in the end present your insights to your fellow
students. The instructions to your project are meant as a guide to
get you started, but feel free to come up with own ideas. Do not
feel limited by the questions. We want to see you diving into it.
Do not hesitate to contact us for help on problems and to discuss
your ideas.

For your grade we mainly evaluate the technical aspects of your
code and figures. You can view the evaluation criteria in

\textbf{Dates:}
The code and the presentation must be uploaded to ILIAS
\textbf{at latest on Sunday, February 21st, 2021, 23:59h}. We
will store all presentations on one computer to allow for fast
transitions between talks.
Deadline for uploading the code and the presentation on ILIAS is\\

\textbf{Files:}
\textbf{Hand in your presentation as a pdf file.} Bundle everything (the
pdf, the code, and the data) into a {\em single} zip-file named with your last name.

presentation) into a {\em single} zip-file named with your last

\textbf{Hint:} create the zip file you want to upload, unpack it
somewhere else on your computer and check if your main script is still running properly.

\textbf{Code:}
The code must be executable without any further adjustments from
our side. (Test it!) A single \texttt{main.m} script coordinates
the analysis by calling functions and/or sub-scripts (see Box 1.10 in chapter 1) which produce
the {\em same} figures (\texttt{saveas()}-function, pdf or png
format) that you use in your slides (your code can also generate
additional figures). The code must be comprehensible by a third
person (use proper and consistent variable and function names, see chapter 4).
\textbf{Hint:} Find out what RTFM means and act accordingly ;). You can also always try to google your problems.

\textbf{Presentation:}
Hand in your presentation as a pdf file.
The presentation should be {\em at most} 10\,min long and be held
in English. In the presentation you should present figures
