Mini-project report

- Submitting a file upload
- File types pdf
The mini project is carried out in groups of 3 to 4 students.
Project overview
The project is to predict which songs, out of a data set of 200 songs, Andreas Lindholm will like. To your help, you are provided another data set of 750 songs, which Andreas already has labeled with like or dislike. The data consists not of the sound files themselves, but of high level features extracted from them.
Using the methods in the course, you will implement the project in Python (outside the scheduled hours), submit your final prediction to a website, and write a report. You will also peer-review a report from another group, and - if necessary - revise your own report. Outstanding work will be awarded with a gold star, which can raise your final grade.
Instructions
All instructions are in this file: instructions.pdf
Please read them carefully!
The datasets are available here:
Submit your solution here (and see how well the other groups are doing). Note that you only need to submit one solution here during the entire project. (But for the sake of a fun competition, we allow you to submit up to one solution per day and group).
Clarification: The LaTeX template for NeurIPS has line numbers in its draft mode. You should not remove these numbers. They can be useful for your reviewers when they want to refer to a specific part of your report (e.g., "the equation on line 54").

- The report does not contain material copied from elsewhere (all reports are checked for plagiarism using Urkund).
