Validation
Validation is carried out by practical work reports and a project, based on a research article. Each project is organized as follows:
- choice of a research article among proposals,
- implementation and testing of the algorithm(s) described in the article,
- analysis of the algorithm, its results, proposal for variant(s),
- submission of a report explaining the method and the results; and the code produced.
Lists of proposed articles: to appear soon.
