Hi everyone,

We have now finalised the presentation schedule and locations for both Friday, July 17, and Monday, July 20. Please check the registration sheet carefully for your assigned time slot and location in the registration sheet

Please arrive on time and make sure you go to the correct location.

Hi everyone,

You can now register for the exam on the LSF. Please take note of the following:

1. LSF registration is mandatory for participating in the exam. For each exam you need to register separately.

2. The deadline for LSF registration is one week before the respective exam. If you miss this deadline, for whatever (technical) reason, we will not be able to help you and the exam office makes no exceptions on this. Please register as soon as possible.

3. Please only register for the exam if you meet the qualification criteria discussed in the first lecture. Specifically, you must have earned at least 75% of the total assignment points and be actively participating in, and passing, the project phase.

Good luck!

All the best,

Your HLCV Team

Hi everyone,

We are actively working with the examination office to fix the issue with the LSF system so that you can register for the exam.

We will let you know as soon as the issue is fixed.

Please remember that LSF registration is mandatory for taking the exam, and the registration deadline is one week before the exam.

All the best,

Your HLCV Team

Hi everyone,

Thank you to everyone who has registered for a presentation slot so far.

Please note that we are no longer accepting registrations for the additional presentation slots on Friday, July 17th.

If your team has not yet registered for a presentation slot on Monday, July 20th, please do so as soon as possible using the registration sheet (deadline: July 12th). This will help us finalise the presentation schedule.

As a reminder, each team should register for exactly one slot only, including the team number, all team member names, and one main contact email.

Best,
The HLCV Team

Hi everyone,

It has come to our attention that the current presentation slots overlap with the exam schedules of some other courses.

To accommodate students who have an exam on the same day, we will offer additional presentation slots on Friday, July 17th. If you would like to take this option, please contact us at hlcv-ss26@mpi-inf.mpg.de by June 30th, 2026.

Best,
The HLCV Team

Hi everyone,

This year, project presentations will run in two separate tracks, with 22 presentation slots per track on July 20th, 2026. There is no difference between Track 1 and Track 2; they are only used to organise parallel presentation sessions.

Please discuss with your team and choose exactly one slot that works for everyone (everyone must be present for the presentation). In the chosen slot, fill in:

Team #, all team member names, and one main contact email.

The main contact email is included so that, in case of a conflict, or if your preferred slot is already taken by another team, you can contact the relevant team directly and arrange a possible slot exchange among yourselves. Please follow the example format shown in the sheet. Do not register your team in more than one slot, even if the slots are in different tracks. If a team signs up for multiple slots, we will remove all of that team’s entries, and the team will need to register again. 

Here is the registration link: Project Presentation Registration Sheet. The deadline for registration is July 12th, 2026, 23:59PM. Good luck!

Best,
HLCV team

Hi again,

The project instructions are now released on CMS. Please familiarize yourself with the instructions and the timeline. In the upcoming Monday tutorial, we will have a detailed discussion regarding the project phase together with samples from previous iterations of the course.

All the best,

Your HLCV Team

Hi everyone,

Please note the following:

• For Assignment 3, please avoid uploading your checkpoints and the dataset. Please upload everything else (i.e code & notebook files).
• Next Monday, we will have a tutorial regarding project phase kick-off as well as solutions to Assignment 3.
• The feedback for Assignment 1 will be released very soon. Assignment 2 grades will also be released in the coming week.

All the best,

Your HLCV Team

Hi everyone,

The GPU credentials are now released on CMS under "GPU Cluster Access". There you can find your username (hlcv_teamXXX) and password. This is mainly intended for the upcoming project phase but you may already familiarize yourself with it for the current Assignment 3.

• For instructions on how to use the GPU cluster, please refer to the uploaded `GPU Instructions.zip` file in the Materials tab. It includes a Markdown file which demonstrates how to submit a sample job to the cluster.
• Make sure you are connected to the university network (either locally or with Uni's VPN). When using the GPU cluster, please avoid running any scripts on the submit node (even for downloading datasets or installing packages). This node is only supposed to submit jobs and does not have enough computational resources. Simply submit (interactive) jobs as demonstrated in the instructions file. 
• It also goes without saying that the provided cluster access is only intended for the course, and that you are responsible for keeping the credentials secure. In the instruction files you can also see how you can change the initial password. If your project or the code-base you are using at some point collects data from the internet, you must ensure that this complies with applicable laws, such as data protection, copyright, and terms of service of the sources.

Feel free to reach out to us through the mailing list or the forum in case of questions.

All the best,

Your HLCV Team

Hi everyone,

The first assignment is now released and can be accessed under the Materials tab on CMS. The deadline for this assignment is May 1st 23:59 CEST.

As mentioned in the first tutorial, the assignment has two separate notebooks. The notebooks consist of code snippets and short text blocks to be filled out.

We are more than happy to help you with this assignment on the Forum. Kindly keep in mind that your posts are visible to all students and avoid posting your solutions.

 

Please also remember that the deadline for forming teams on CMS is May 1st. You need to be registered as a team of 3 on CMS and one of the members needs to make a submission for the team. The teams will remain the same for all of the assignments and the final project.

 

All the best,

Your HLCV Team
