Final evaluation

[Ying Yin]

Hi,

In the final evaluation, will different PIDs be assigned to the data, or maybe randomly reassigned to the data? Because if the PIDs are the same, one could train a model for each user and select the user dependent model during the final evaluation. Will user independence be enforced during the final evaluation?

Thanks,

Ying

Hello Yin,

Thank you for the insight.

Dont worry about that, user independence will be "forced" during evaluation. 

The method to do so will not be disclosed but there will be no simple method to use dependent model based on data information from the path of the batches.

Of course, an algorithm may try to recognize users based on their image and use this information to use a particular model. (Not always an advantage)

Hope this answers your question.

Best regards,

Hi Simon,

Thank you very much for the reply. Can I assume that Batch 0 in every session is always for calibration and Batch 1 always immediately follows the calibration gesture?

Thanks,
Ying
