      {\bf Evaluation criteria:}

      Each project has three elements that are graded: (i) the code,
      (ii) the slides/figures, and (iii) the presentation.

      \vspace{.5cm}

      The {\bf code} and the {\bf presentation} should be uploaded to
      ILIAS before the presentations start on Thursday. Everything
      should be bundeled into a {\em single} zip-file. The
      presentation should be handed in as pdf.

      \vspace{.5cm}

      The {\bf code} should be exectuable without any further
      adjustments from us. This means that you should include all
      additional functions you wrote and the data into the
      zip-file. The {\em main script} should produce the same {\em
      figures} that you use in your slides. The figures should follow
      the guidelines for proper plotting as discussed in the first
      statistics lecture. The code should be properly commented and
      comprehensible by third persons (use proper and consistent
      variable names).

      \vspace{.5cm}
      
      The {\bf slides} should be handed in along with the code and in
      pdf format. We will store them all on one computer to allow fast
      transitions between talks. The {\bf presentation} itself should
      be {\em at most} 10min long and be held in English. In the
      presentation you should (i) briefly describe the problem, (ii)
      explain how you solved it algorithmically (don't show your
      entire code), and (iii) present figures showing your results.
