What to Include in Your Poster?

Be creative, after all it is a presentation! You should be able to illustrate what your project can do.
Overall, your poster should be aligned with these recommendations:

key point	Description
Overall Clarity of poster	Define clear sections in your poster. It should present the key points of your work, up to where you got with it. Summarize ideas and consider using figures and tables to make it more illustrative as that will give a better sense of work done.
Introduction	What are you trying to solve? Why is it important in the field?
Related work	Previous work related to your topic that served as a baseline or motivation. This would serve as your backup support in what you have developed.
Methods	Which techniques did you apply? You are strongly encouraged to add an illustration of your Machine Learning pipeline. (suggested: figures)
Dataset	Description of the dataset used, number of files, train and test partitions, labels, etc. (suggested: tables)
Results	Your experimental results. What metrics did you use for evaluation? How do your results compare to prior work or your baseline?
Conclusions	summary analysis of your model and results. Describe current results in each of the experiments aligned with your expectations. Highlight a few limitations of your approach (e.g., strong assumptions you had to make, constraints, when your method didn’t work in practice, etc.).
References	Add the most relevant citations only

Presentation Grading Rubric

Your project will be scored according to the following rubric:

Problem	Proposed Methods	Completeness	Results	Publishability
Whether the problem description is clear? Is the motivation strong? Is the problem nontrivial?	Clear enough? Technically sound? Originality?	Is your work complete? Have you obtained results consistent with successful completion of the work?	Are the results reasonable? how do you set up their experiments? Comparisons with others? Can you explain the results? Have you looked into the results and gained some insights on DL models/algorithms?	Is your work potentially publishable?
