02501 ADLCV Exam

Has anyone here taken the oral exam for Advanced Deep Learning in Computer Vision before? I’m just wondering how it went, how much detail they expected you to know, were they nice to you, etc.

Thanks in advance!

I did it today! Honestly kind of a wierd exam. First of all, don't expect them to give you a grade at the end of the exam. Contrary to what they have written on learn, they intend to do all group exams before grading. Secondly (I did my exam with Dimitros btw) the individual questions are focused mainly on finding errors in your understanding of either the project or the curriculum. I got a question e.g. "When using multi-head attention, is the input for each head in a layer the same?". I correctly answered yes, to which the follow up question was: "Well that wouldn't make much sense, how would the different heads learn different things then? Are you sure that they have the same input?". (To clarify, they absolutely have the same input, I checked after the exam). In terms of what questions you get. They will check if you are on top of every part of the project, then move to the curriculum. As my project was on ViT's I was asked a couple of questions about stable diffusion, and that was it.

Oh so you took this exam before? Were the questions specific, requiring memorization of the math? Or were they more focused on testing understanding of the concepts on a broader level?
