Group name: final report

Modified 2018-05-06 by Andrea Censi

The objective of this report is to bring justice to your hard work during the semester and make so that future generations of Duckietown students may take full advantage of it. Some of the sections of this report are repetitions from the preliminary and intermediate design document (PDD, IDD respectively).

The final result

✎

Modified 2018-06-25 by Andrea Censi

Let’s start from a teaser.

Post a video of your best results (e.g., your demo video)

Add as a caption: see the operation manual to reproduce these results.

Mission and Scope

✎

Now tell your story:

Define what is your mission here.

Motivation

✎

Modified 2018-02-17 by TianluWang

Now step back and tell us how you got to that mission.

What are we talking about? [Brief introduction / problem in general terms]
Why is it important? [Relevance]

Existing solution

✎

Modified 2018-02-17 by TianluWang

Was there a baseline implementation in Duckietown which you improved upon, or did you implemented from scratch? Describe the “prior work”

Opportunity

✎

Modified 2018-02-17 by TianluWang

What didn’t work out with the existing solution? Why did it need improvement?

Examples: - there wasn’t a previous implementation - the previous performance, evaluated according to some specific metrics, was not satisfactory - it was not robust / reliable - somebody told me to do so (/s)

How did you go about improving the existing solution / approaching the problem? [contribution]
We used method / algorithm xyz to fix the gap in knowledge (don’t go in the details here)
Make sure to reference papers you used / took inspiration from

Preliminaries (optional)

✎

Is there some particular theorem / “mathy” thing you require your readers to know before delving in the actual problem? Add links here.

Definition of link: - could be the reference to a paper / textbook (check here (unknown ref duckumentation/demo-template)

Definition of the problem

✎

Modified 2018-02-17 by TianluWang

Up to now it was all fun and giggles. This is the most important part of your report: a crisp mathematical definition of the problem you tackled. You can use part of the preliminary design document to fill this section.

Make sure you include your: - final objective / goal - assumptions made (including contracts with “neighbors”) - quantitative performance metrics to judge the achievement of the goal

Contribution / Added functionality

✎

Modified 2018-02-17 by TianluWang

Describe here, in technical detail, what you have done. Make sure you include: - a theoretical description of the algorithm(s) you implemented - logical architecture (refer to IDD template for description) - software architecture (refer to IDD template for description) - details on the actual implementation where relevant (how does the implementation differ from the theory?) - any infrastructure you had to develop in order to implement your algorithm - If you have collected a number of logs, add link to where you stored them

Feel free to create subsections when useful to ease the flow

Formal performance evaluation / Results

✎

Modified 2018-02-07 by tanij

Be rigorous!

For each of the tasks you defined in you problem formulation, provide quantitative results (i.e., the evaluation of the previously introduced performance metrics)
Compare your results to the success targets. Explain successes or failures.
Compare your results to the “state of the art” / previous implementation where relevant. Explain failure / success.
Include an explanation / discussion of the results. Where things (as / better than / worst than) you expected? What were the biggest challenges?

Future avenues of development
