Exam
Vilkår for å gå opp til eksamen/vurdering
3 compulsory programming assignments ungraded (pass or fail) divided among fundamentals, LLMs and vision modules.
All programming exercises must be passed to attend for the written exam and to get project approved. Completion of mandatory lab assignments are to be made on time. Absence due to illness or for other reasons must be communicated as soon as possible to the laboratory personnel. One cannot expect that provisions for completion of the lab assignments at other times are made unless prior arrangements with the laboratory personnel have been agreed upon. Failure to complete the assigned labs on time or not having them approved will result in barring from taking the exam of the course. Manual approval of the assignments based on the demonstration of deeper understanding of the assignment solution is compulsory.
