This is about Practice Test Question 1, and this is also about the 
Project Preparation

Here is what you have to do for Question One.

For your project, you must go to  google and  type in
"cvpr 2020 papers on the web". Pick the link at openaccess.thecvf.com/CVPR2020   
 
Examine the list (several hundred .pdf files) and pick your favorite three  titles.
For the TEST, you are required to remember  titles for three papers. You need to know these titles, 
so maybe either pick ones you really like, or ones that will be easy to remember.
You cannot look them up during the TEST.
Immediately after the TEST (or if you wish, before), email to niels@cs.ucf.edu 
the final ONE  title of the paper  that you truly like; the main requirement is 
that it should have at least around 6 (SIX) math equations (numbered equations)
 in it.  Before committing 
to this ONE paper, please  make sure that you have skimmed the paper at least 
once. To recap, for your project, you need to identify one paper that meets all of 
the following criteria:

a) you must find a paper that is appealing to you

b) your chosen paper (from that CVPR-2020 website) must have at least 6 equations in it

c) your chosen paper should have an algorithm that solves some vision (or related) problem

d) try to pick a paper that uses some machine learning to develop its capabilities. 

e) due to the fact that you are looking for a paper with a novel algorithm, it is better to avoid looking at papers that are mainly proposing a dataset.

Then send niels@cs.ucf.edu the title of your chosen paper. In the subject of the email, 
use: "CAP4453 CHOSEN your-surname". The deadline to send  this title is October 22, 2020.

Then, for the actual project that is based on that one title, (the project 
will start around October 16, 2020    ), you must read the ONE paper  (try to read it 
twice)  and you will tell me orally (by a zoom conference) what you 
 understand 
about the paper (this is really done by you telling me WHAT YOU DO 
NOT UNDERSTAND about the paper). There are TWO verbal reports. 
The first (will take around 20 minutes) must be finished to me (Lobo) 
before (around) October 25, 2020,  
(during class hours or in other hours that you select); 
the second (the more advanced presentation of the paper) must be done 
around 24 days after your first presentation and definitely 
finished by around November 20, 2020.     
In the first report (verbal), you will tell  me what it is that you do not understand 
about the paper, and we will make a list at that time to tell you what you 
must work on and try to explain by the time you do your second  presentation. 
To get ready for the first presentation, all that is needed is that you have 
read the paper twice. Your second oral presentation will occur about  24 days 
after the first presentation.  
Then after that, around December 1, 2020, your final written report will be due.
 So, your two verbal reports and the single written report, constitute your complete project. 
The goal of the project is to have you understand as much of the paper as 
possible: For an A grade on the project, I will be asking you what the secret 
idea that makes their project work, is. Every final  presentation should have
tried to find (in the paper) or created an overall diagram that summarizes the 
paper and shows how all the components fit together.
Your written report will be an explanation for a future reader of that paper. 
Good luck, get started soon. Contact niels@cs.ucf.edu if you need any help.
  
To answer the actual question on the TEST (Question One), all you need is 
three titles of actual papers from that collection of papers. 
The selection of these three titles could be based on ease of remembering 
the titles, or on topics that you find attractive, and are more likely to 
remember due to your interest in these papers.
