Week 17

Accomplishments
We just missed the deadline for MSR but we have a nearly completed paper. We are exploring alternative models to expand and improve ours, which is still touchy, before publication. Currently we are focused on fasttext.
Weekly Goals
We plan to debug our fasttext model and run it on our data. Maybe even attempt to integrate it into our current model.

Week 16

Accomplishments
We are having problems running our model. We've decided to run it on a new data set which, means I have rewritten my statistics code for this new and much larger data set. There were a few minor problems with the transfer. The formats of the times were different and the titles were all different, but after some minor tweaks it was working fine.
Weekly goal
We plan to fix the model and still submit in time for MSR.

Week 15

Accomplishments
We have completed most of the paper now. We have the related work, methods, introduction, and abstract done. Hannah has worked more examples with our convolutional neural network. The deadline for MSR is approaching quickly and we're quickly working to finish the paper.
Weekly Goal
We hope to finish running the model on our data and write the rest of our paper.
