== Format ==
Guest presentation: Daniel Rosnes on using Twitter data for the news: Introduction to Twitter API v2 and Tweepy
The regular sessions will be a combination of lectures, student presentations and discussions. You will all be expected to present 2-3 papers/chapters as part of the course. I will try to balance workload evenly (so if some people get two papers and other three, the two papers will be longer and the three papers shorter).


We will try to finish each session by 1600.

== Presenting a paper ==
''The Guest Talk on architectures and the News Hunter platform is postponed to a later session.''
Here are a few points about the paper presentations and preparations:
*    Make sure you start reading at least a week before, not in the last 2-3 days. You need time to let the paper sink in a bit before you start preparing the presentation. That way it is easier to see and present the big picture.
*    This may be the first time you read a research paper. I have tried to choose papers that are rather short and simple but, nevertheless, some parts of almost every paper will be hard for you to understand. If you come across difficult details, try to focus on the purpose of what they are doing. When they mention, for example, statistical techniques, I do not expect that you read up on statistics. But explain why they need statistics and tell us the names of the techniques they use and on what data.
*    Plan each presentation for about 20 minutes. We will set off 5-10 more minutes for discussion and comments.
*    Prepare slides. For a 20 minute presentation, 10 slides is the maximum.
*    Your presentation should try to answer at least the following: What is the problem the paper addresses? Why is this an important problem? Are the authors targetting a particular usage domain? What solutions do they propose? How does the solution work? Have they evaluated the solution? If so how? If not yet, how are they planning to evaluate it - or how do you think they should evaluate it? What are the limitations of the proposal? Do you see problems with what they are doing?
*    These questions are not all suitable for all papers, so you must make a pick! Maybe there are other things you should say about the paper too. Some of the papers mostly describe a problem or a case study, for example, so the presentations will be quite different.
*    Rehearse a few times beforehand. Talk through the presentation out loud for yourself (not just "inside your head").
*    Share your slides by uploading them to the file section here in the portal.
*    Some papers are longer and some shorter, some easier and some harder. This is how it has to be, but I will try to balance it out so that the workload on each of you is as equal as possible.

Guest presentation: Sohail Khan on computer vision and deep networks for image analysis. His slides and demo code are uploaded to mitt.uib.no under Files (size and file-type limitations).
 
There are not so many readings for this session, because it is where we will start running Spark in a cluster, so there will be practical work that takes some time. Computer networks and image analysis is not a mandatory part of the course, but something you may want to use in your projects. Sohail's presentation will include suggestions for further reading.
