End-to-End Applied AI Development — Comparative Machine Learning and Neural Network Modelling on a Public Dataset

This assessment runs a complete applied AI development cycle end to end: problem definition, dataset selection, preprocessing, model building, optimisation, evaluation and critical reflection. Students identify a real-world problem themselves, formulate a research question from it, and source a suitable dataset from a recognised public repository such as UCI, Kaggle, Data.gov or OpenML. Dataset choice carries more weight than students expect. It must be genuinely suitable for supervised learning, complex enough to make preprocessing and feature engineering meaningful, and — critically — structured so that a traditional machine learning approach and a deep learning approach can be sensibly compared on it. A dataset too small or too clean makes the neural network component pointless; one too large or too noisy makes the whole pipeline unfinishable within the page limit. The source must be referenced and the choice explicitly justified against the research problem. The modelling requirement is fixed: at least two supervised machine learning models, plus one artificial neural network built in a mainstream deep learning framework, all trained and tested. The comparison between them is the analytical core of the work. Reporting that the neural network scored higher is not an answer; explaining why, in terms of the data's structure and each model's inductive assumptions, is. Marks are distributed across problem framing, the traditional models, the deep learning model, evaluation and critical analysis including responsible AI considerations, and academic communication. That responsible AI component is easy to overlook and is not decorative — it asks what the model's limitations mean for anyone who might rely on it. Presentation requirements are specific. The report is page-limited rather than purely word-limited, and every plot must be described in the text while also being legible enough to communicate on its own — a common failure is dense default library output pasted in without axis labels or scale. The implementation is documented in a notebook combining markdown and code cells so the development process is visible, not just the final result, and submissions typically include the cleaned dataset alongside the code. The strongest submissions treat the notebook and the report as one argument. Weaker ones produce a working notebook and then write a report that describes it, rather than a report that uses it as evidence. Our support on assessments of this type is guidance-based. Typical areas of help include: advising on whether a candidate dataset can actually support the required model comparison, explaining how to justify preprocessing decisions, clarifying which evaluation metrics suit which problem type and why accuracy alone is often misleading, showing how to structure a critical limitations and responsible AI discussion, checking Harvard referencing, and reviewing a student's own draft against the published marking criteria.

Data Investigation Pipeline — Exploratory Analysis and Statistical Evaluation of a Chosen Dataset

This assessment simulates the opening stages of a real data investigation. Students choose their own research question and dataset, then build the full pipeline from raw data through preparation, exploration and statistical testing to visualisation — and, where the question supports it, simple modelling or forecasting. Either Python or R is acceptable; the statistical route through R typically expects an explicit hypothesis rather than a purely exploratory question. The work is structured around an established process methodology such as CRISP-DM, and the development journey is documented alongside the code rather than reported after the fact. The usual submission format is a single notebook combining markdown and code cells, so the written report and the analysis sit in one artefact, though a word-processed document containing the code is normally also accepted. The written element is short — around a thousand words — which makes selection the hardest part of the task. It must cover the scenario, the data collection, the exploratory analysis, the reasoning behind the choice of statistical tests, their results, and the visualisations. Students routinely spend that budget describing what they did and leave nothing for why. The mark distribution makes the priority explicit. Framing the problem and the data source carries the smallest share. Preparation and exploratory analysis, and evaluation of the results in context, carry the bulk in roughly equal measure. That final component is where most marks are lost: it asks for an honest assessment of accuracy, limitations and usefulness. A notebook that produces clean output and then claims more than the data supports scores below one that reports a modest result and explains precisely why it is modest. Established metrics should be used for the statistical tests, and published research cited where it informs the background or interprets the findings. Note that assessments of this type increasingly include a live demonstration in which the student explains their own project to verify authorship, so every line of the submitted work needs to be something the student can talk through unprompted. Our support on assessments of this type is guidance-based. Typical areas of help include: explaining how to scope a research question so the analysis fits the word limit, clarifying which statistical test suits which data type and why, reviewing whether a chosen visualisation communicates what it claims, showing how to write an honest limitations section, checking Harvard referencing, and reviewing a student's own draft notebook against the published marking criteria.
