Additional information on mode of examination
Students are required to use one of the examples discussed in the course as a basis for developing their own generative model and use it for simulations and/or inference in application to a clinical question (a real or fictitious one). This model is to be submitted as open source code (in MATLAB or Python), and the motivation and results are presented in a 10 min oral presentation followed by critical discussion. Group work (up to 3 students) is permitted. The submitted code must be executable without any dependencies on specific operating systems or local setups (e.g., no absolute pathnames). Grading will depend on (i) originality of the question that is addressed, (ii) clarity, technical correctness and practicability of the code, (iii) the quality of the oral presentation and discussion in the report. The code is to be submitted by 30 May 2019; the oral presentations take place on 31 May (12-18h).
