Contents of the Portfolio
The portfolio should be composed of the following items.
The portfolio should be written as a coherent document, so
that the different items support the conclusion made in the
final essay, and so that it collectively display that you have
covered the full range of the module contents.
-
A selection of answers to four of the weekly exercises,
as follows:
- One of Week 1 or 2 (Spatial Domain)
- One from Week 3-5 (JPEG Domain)
- One from Week 6-9 (non-lab exercise)
- One free choice
-
A concluding essay (1 page, maybe 2), summarising the highlights of
what you have learnt in the module.
You should address some of the following points
-
Why are the chosen highlights particularly important/interesting
for you?
-
How do these highlights relate to other topics you have studied?
-
How do the highlights relate to real-world applications
(such as your future career)?
-
How have the other items in the portfolio helped you to learn
(or show that you have learnt) these highlights?
You should make an effort to make (especially) the concluding
essay in view of the assessment criteria.
Format of submission
-
A single PDF file containing your main answers to all the items
as well as the concluding essay.
The front page should display full name and URN.
Source code does not have to be included here.
-
An archive file (tar/gz, tar/bzip, or PKzip) containing all your
m-files (and other source code and executable files if appropriate).

other piece of coursework.
The electronic files should be sent as email attachments to
