You will be given a real data set that has already been analyzed by some researchers in the past. Some exploratory data analysis will also be presented to you. You will be asked to critically analyze the data set, develop your own model, analyze its performance, and attempt to critically reproduce results that have been published in the literature.
The analysis will be performed by using the R software, using the procedures that have been discussed in the course.

Once the data is released, you will have roughly 5 weeks to work on the project (which is typically due for submission in Week 9). It will be evaluated, and feedback will be given in the form of marks and comments from academic staff approximately 10 days after the submission.
