This week, we spent most of our time writing up our design review report. Although a lot of the main content had been covered in our design review presentation, the devil was in the details for this report. In particular, we needed to make our block diagrams a lot more detailed since the ones we used in the slides were merely summaries.
We were very thankful that the deadline for the report got extended as that reduced the amount of stress we had, and allowed us to write a more polished report.
On the implementation side, I am slightly “behind schedule” in the sense that I was not able to get as much work done on the new neural network implementation as I had hoped to, because I was focusing on the report instead. However, we are still ahead of schedule since we already have an implementation going.
Next week, I will focus on implementing and training the ResNet18 network, and then testing the accuracy on a self-collected dataset of various fruits.
