CIS Spring 2022 Projects

To CIS II Students: Project Ideas

Here is a list of the project ideas and each individual set of slides for 2022. These will be presented in class over the first few sessions of class.

Remember several points, however:

To Potential CIS II Project Mentors: How to Propose a Project Idea

Our Advanced CIS II projects course has a large enrollment this year, and we are actively soliciting possible projects. As you may recall, CIS II is intended for graduate students and upper-level undergrads, in which students work in teams of 1-3 on semester-long projects broadly related to computer-integrated interventions, AI in medicine, medical image analysis, or related topics. In addition to material covered in lectures/seminars by the instructor and other faculty, students are expected to read and provide critical analysis/presentations of selected papers in recitation sessions. Students taking this course are required to undertake and report on a significant term project. Project mentors may include faculty, engineering staff, postdocs, and (with appropriate approvals) advanced graduate students. Students taking the course sign a non-disclosure agreement at the start of the semester, in order to enable free discussion without compromising patentability. We also keep project web pages restricted for at least a year, or until the mentor(s) agree that they can be made public.

Generally, students select projects in the first 2-3 weeks of class, although some come with an idea beforehand. In order to suggest a project, you can fill out this template (typically about 2-3 slides) and send it to me (rht@jhu.edu) and to the TA (yixuan_wu@jhu.edu), along with an indication if you would like to present the idea yourself or if you would like us to present it for you.

A note to Project Mentors

First, thank you for mentoring a CIS II project this year. This course provides a great educational experience for the students, and also can produce useful research results. Its success depends greatly on the project mentors, and I hope that your experience this year has been productive both for you and for the students.

As part of our grading process, we are encouraging project mentors to provide some input. You all should have been granted access to the course web site and to the individual project(s) that you are mentoring.

We would really appreciate it if you can answer a few questions. Either edit the linked form and email it to me (rht@jhu.edu) and the TA (Yixuan Wu, yixuan_wu@jhu.edu), with a file name like “Project xxx mentors report.docx” or just sent an email with a similar subject line.

Finally, note that the annual final exam / poster session will be on the assigned final exam day on Zoom (https://wse.zoom.us/j/635091574). I very much hope that you can attend. Also, the project reports are due on the day of the poster session, but the students have been told that you need an opportunity to review the reports before then. Also, we will need your comments to us by 9 PM on the day of the poster session, since we will be using them to help us with our evaluation of the projects.

Instructions to 456/496/656 Students

The links below point to the Wiki pages for your projects. You should follow the link. This will bring you to a project home page that you can edit once you log in. The two little gear symbols on the upper right give access to functions like login, logout, edit page, etc. The login/logout is on the leftmost gear. Note that there are many styles of Wiki, with different syntax. This one is “dokuwiki”. There is a link to help pages from the edit page.

The current default access settings are “read” for the CiiS lab, no access to members of the general public, and full power to members of your group. If you want to restrict read access to smaller group (e.g., all 456 students, etc.) contact Prof. Taylor. Prof. Taylor can also implement access control for individual pages if you so desire. If you want the whole world to be able to read your project pages, that can be arranged. Do not post anything to unprotected pages that you want kept private until you have arranged with Prof. Taylor to protect them.

Also, verify that each member of your group can log in. If you have trouble, contact Prof. Taylor via email providing correct name and JHED id.

Finally, if you want to give other individuals (e.g., your mentors) access to your project pages, provide name and JHED id to Prof. Taylor

NOTE: At the end of the semester, all projects will be made readable to the general public, unless you make arrangements otherwise with Prof. Taylor

Nondisclosure agreement for in-class discussion

As we discussed in class, some of the projects may contain potentially patentable material or other material that should not be disclosed publicly until a later time. In order to permit free in-class discussion of this material, we have developed a non-disclosure agreement. When asked, the entire class agreed to sign such an agreement, a copy of which is linked below.
