Critique

If I were to grade it: On a scale of 1 to 5, where 1 means "strongly disagree" and 5 means "strongly agree" please rate and comment on the following:

The topic is relevant for the course. 5

The writing is clear and the English is good. 5

The page is written at an appropriate level for CPSC 522 students (where the students have diverse backgrounds). 5

The formalism (definitions, mathematics) was well chosen to make the page easier to understand. 2 - There should probably be some mathematical definition/example

The abstract is a concise and clear summary. 5

There were appropriate (original) examples that helped make the topic clear. 0 - Examples needed (I understand "examples" here to refer to applications of the theory, not examples of what a snapshot of a DBN would look like)

There was appropriate use of (pseudo-) code. N/A. Could possibly include pseudocode

It had a good coverage of representations, semantics, inference and learning (as appropriate for the topic). Page needs expansion

It is correct. 5: Seems so, but is too brief to tell

It was neither too short nor too long for the topic. 3 - too short

It was an appropriate unit for a page (it shouldn't be split into different topics or merged with another page). 5

It links to appropriate other pages in the wiki. 4 - Should be more reference links, when the page is expanded to include more text

The references and links to external pages are well chosen. 5 - It's probably fine but might be nice to include more sources in the bibliography

I would recommend this page to someone who wanted to find out about the topic. 3

This page should be highlighted as an exemplary page for others to emulate. 3

If I was grading it out of 20, I would give it: 14


Other Suggestions:

  • The images should be appropriately sized: you can edit size by adding a |500px| or some other value before |frame|
  • I'd remove the section instructions ("Put your annotated bibliography here")
  • Include full name of acronyms when used the first time (with external link if appropriate)
  • The model seems to go well with video explanations and if so perhaps it might be good to include an external link (in further reading perhaps?)
