TEACHING STUDENTS HOW TO TEACH MACHINES

Resum

This paper presents a Problem-Based Learning activity that introduce machine learning contents in a study plan that is based on electronics and signal processing subjects. The activity proposes to students to follow the same evaluation protocols adopted in scientific challenges, where differents research groups test their own techniques on a common dataset and evaluation metrics. Teams of students adopt the role of a research group to develop their novel solution for the automatic detection of semantic concepts in images. The developed solutions must be tested and orally presented in class to prove their performance and originalty.
