Project Plan

Today I had a meeting with the supervisor about the project plan. Considering the due date of some assessments of the honours thesis course and the uncertainty of whether I can get the access to the dataset from the external collaborator, we made two versions of draft plans as below.

With the external dataset
    1. Literature Review and Feature Selection
      Mar 12th -- April 13 th (Topic Proposal due)
    2. Data Analysis (Statistics) and Progress Report 
      April 16th -- May 30th (Progress Report due)
    3. Data Analysis (Machine Learning) and Small-Scale Experiment 
      June 1st -- August 31st (Inc. the break)
    4. Final Analysis (Machine Learning)
      September 3rd -- September 26th
    5. Conclusion and Documentation
      September 27th -- October 22nd (Treatise due on October 24th)

Design and Implement my own Experiment
    1. Literature Review and Feature Selection
      Mar 12th -- April 13 th (Topic Proposal due)
    2. Experiment Design, Implementation and Progress Report 
      April 16th -- May 30th (Progress Report due)
    3. Pilot Study and Actual Experiment
      June 1st -- August 31st (Inc. the break)
    4. Data Analysis (Statistics)
      September 3rd -- September 26th
    5. Conclusion and Documentation
      September 27th -- October 22nd (Treatise due on October 24th)

This plan with all the milestones inside can help me to do the time management more efficiently. I also confirmed with the supervisor that I would work on the project in NICTA two days per week and have at least one meeting every week with him.
