The Individual Assigned Practical Task (IAPT) is an opportunity for the student to design and implement a solution for a well-defined AI problem or a solution that utilises AI techniques.

In addition, the student will need to write a report (maximum of 8,000 words) which contains the following -

• an introduction that details the problem;
• a short literature review;
• an explanation of the design of the solution;
• an explanation of the AI technique(s) used in the solution;
• a description of the implementation;
• a description of the evaluation carried out and the results obtained;
• an analysis of the results; and
• a conclusion.

The report can be either a word document or a PDF. Students can make use of the following ACM Paper Templates’: IAPT word template [Word] or IAPT LaTeX template [Zip].

The final deliverables for the IAPT is an artefact that solves the particular problem together with the related report (70%), a short 5-minute video (15%) and a 10-minute presentation & demonstration of the solution/artefact (15%).

The IAPT will also act as preparation for the Final Year Project. 

The work output resulting from this 5 ECTS Group Assigned Practical Task will be roughly equivalent to a project resulting from, at least, 125 hours of effort.
