    My submission was rejected by the give system ?

    You should submit EXACTLY SIX files, THREE of which should have names ending in .data, .index and .meta, respectively. The names of these three files must match the first line of your checkpoint file. For example, if the files are called final_model.data, final_model.index and final_model.meta, you should ensure (by editing it, if necessary) that the first line of your checkpoint file looks like this:

    model_checkpoint_path: "final_model"
    
    The recommended method of submission is to copy the files to your CSE account and submit from the command line, using the give command. If you submit using the Web interface, you may need to change the names of the .data, .index and .meta files so they are less than 30 characters (and of course, edit the checkpoint file to match them).

    Should preprocess() return a string or a list of words ?

    It should return a list of words. If it returns a string, the program will still run but it might be feeding individual letters to the model, thus achieving quite limited accuracy.

    Was 95% accuracy really achievable ?

    Nahh.. maybe this was a bit ambitious. The rough marking guide on the spec has now been revised, and we may also take account of your methodology as described in report.pdf

    How do we form Groups for this Assignment ?

    Groups are determined by an SMS field called hw2group. Every student has initially been assigned a unique hw2group which is "h" followed by their student ID number, e.g. h1234567. If you plan to complete the assignment individually, you don't need to do anything (but, if you do create a group with only you as a member, that's ok too). If you wish to work with a partner, one of you needs to create a group in WebCMS and add the other person. Click on "Groups" in the menu to the left. Then click "Create". Click on the menu for "Group Type" and select "hw2". After creating a group, click "Edit", search for the other member, and click "Add". WebCMS assigns a unique group ID to each group, in the form of "g" followed by six digits (e.g. g012345). We will periodically run a script to load these values into SMS.
