==== Breaking News ====
** 1. ** <hi #ffff00>**November 15, 2015**.</hi> The venue of class on Nov. 16, 2015 (Monday) is in AIT_G02 (An Integrated Teaching Building), CUHK. \\
** 2. ** <hi #ffff00>**November 11, 2015**.</hi> Presentation schedule is open. You can sign-up to choose a time slot for your group presentation. Each group has 15 minutes. We may give a bit more time for groups with more than 1 member and groups with system demo. And we also leave some time for course evaluation and possible delays. So  there is a gap between two sessions.  \\
** 3. ** <hi #ffff00>**November 8, 2015**.</hi> Sorry for that there are typos in computing pagerank in HW3 solution. It is updated now. Please use the new version. \\
** 4. ** <hi #ffff00>**November 6, 2015**.</hi> In order to reduce your calculation time, we allow you to use calculators in the exam. But only the calculators listed in the following are allowed. We will check your calculator on the exam day. Please do not use disallowed calculators. Thanks. ** Remind:**  We will also provide a look-up table for you. So the calculator is not necessary.   \\    Calculator list:{{:teaching:cmsc5733:calculator_list_eng.pdf|}}  \\
** 5. ** <hi #ffff00>**November 4, 2015**.</hi> There is no lecture next week. We will take midterm exam on next Monday. The time and venue are the same as usual. 
 **Kind remind**     Time: 7:00-10:00pm, 09/11/2015, Venue: HKPC108. \\
** 6. ** <hi #ffff00>**October 26, 2015**.</hi> Project midterm check specification is uploaded.\\
** 7. ** <hi #ffff00>**October 25, 2015**.</hi> You are allowed to write your homework manually and submit the scanned file.  \\
** 8. ** <hi #ffff00>**October 21, 2015**.</hi> We add extra question for HW3. Please download the new version.  **Notes:**  Extra question helps you to get higher scores. It is not hard. Please try it. \\
** 9. ** <hi #ffff00>**October 19, 2015**.</hi> You can check your HW1 and HW2 scores from the following file. If you have any problem, please contact the tutor. 
Score file: {{:teaching:cmsc5733:hw1_2_score.pdf|}}. \\
** 10. ** <hi #ffff00>**October 17, 2015**.</hi> There is a typo in previous HW3.pdf. Please download the new version.\\
** 11. ** <hi #ffff00>**October 15, 2015**.</hi>To leave you more time to finish the project, we have sent the proposal feedback today. So there is no feedback on Oct. 19, 2015.  **Re-inform:** project mid-term check is on Nov. 2, 2015. \\
 **Grading criteria:**  Each proposal is graded according to the four factors listed in the feedback, ranging from 1 to 5.  The full mark is not a simple average of the four factors. If you do really good in some factors, you may still get full marks. So some proposals may not get full marks in each factor, but they finally get full marks. Thanks. \\

===== Class Project Presentation Requirements=====
  * For groups implementing graphical algorithms, you should explain one algorithm as detailed as you can in the presentation. You should give an example with the structure of nodes, values, and your calculations. You also need to analyze the complexity of your algorithms and test whether your algorithms can be applied in large graphs. For other groups, you should focus on three aspects including the motivation of your idea, the detailed algorithms, and the justification of your methods comparing to naive methods through experiments.

===== Class Project Final Submission=====

====== FAQ ======

  - **Q: What is departmental guideline for plagiarism?**\\ A: If a student is found plagiarizing, his/her case will be reported to the Department Discipline Committee. If the case is proven after deliberation, the student will automatically fail the course in which he/she committed plagiarism. The definition of plagiarism includes copying of the whole or parts of written assignments, programming exercises, reports, quiz papers, mid-term examinations. The penalty will apply to both the one who copies the work and the one whose work is being copied, unless the latter can prove his/her work has been copied unwittingly. Furthermore, inclusion of others' works or results without citation in assignments and reports is also regarded as plagiarism with similar penalty to the offender. A student caught plagiarizing during tests or examinations will be reported to the Faculty Office and appropriate disciplinary authorities for further action, in addition to failing the course.
