Course main page
To pass the course, you need to get at least 50% of the required points,
that is,
54 points (maximum points are 2*10+11*8=108, 50% of that is 54).
Please see the points awarded for solving the
problems. If your total
score is less than 54 and you want to pass the course with grade "passed",
then you should solve any problems from Bishop's book
worth total of n stars
(different problems
than you have solved previously and not
of the problems for which there
is a web solution available at the Bishop's web site) and submit your solutions to the assistant
(t616020@james.hut.fi or Mikko Korpela, PL 5400, 02015 TKK) on 14 May 2007,
at latest, where n is defined as a function of your total
score s
as follows: n=ceiling(1.2*(54-s)). Please note that in order to
get full points of the problems you must solve them correctly,
as before.
You should submit the solved problems to the assistant at the given date,
at latest.
Solutions submitted late do not count in grading.
If you cannot make it to some lecture, you can submit the problems on the
previous lecture or directly to the assistant.
The problems should be completed by one person. However, discussing the
problems
with others is encouraged.
The problems are announced (at least) two weeks before the submission
deadline in this page.
The numbers (1.1–1.41 etc.) refer to the problems in the
Bishop's book.
The problems are classified with 1–3 stars (*="Simple exercise taking few
minutes to complete", ***="Significantly more complex exercise"). You get one
point for one star; a good faith attempt to approximately
correct direction will get
half of the stars (at the discretion of the assistant).

Please estimate time it took you to complete the problems, and write this to
the problem sheet. (We may adjust the required points based on these
estimates.)
Please add a simple cover page to your solutions. On the
cover page, you should mark which exercises you have solved. The cover
page is also the best place for the time estimates.
