This week the most significant risk is processing the data for the dynamic models because it will take some time to format all the data correctly and see how well the model does. To manage this, we are dedicating more time to working with the dynamic data and making it our primary focus for this week. As for contingency plans, if we continue having issues, given that we only have 3 weeks left and that static signs were our MVP, we will most likely leave out the testing portion for dynamic signs, and only include them with educational materials in our platform.
A secondary risk is that the fist model (including signs like a, m, n, s, t, etc) is not performing as expected, where it is not correctly distinguishing between the signs. To manage this, we will be investigating the training data for the fist model this week to figure out why it is not performing well, currently we think the issue is due to varying hand positions but we will confirm after looking into it more this week. As for contingency plans, if we are unable to figure out the fist model issue, we will separate the fist signs into the other models, so that the model will only have to distinguish between dissimilar signs.
Our design has not changed over the past week nor has our schedule seen any significant changes.
