Project 3: Kidney Exchange

Due: 9:59pm, Tuesday, 18 February 2020 (note the later than normal due time!)

For instructions for Project 3, see the Project 3 Notebook. You will also want to download:

  • simulator.py (Kidney exchange simulator)
  • patients.csv (provided dataset of patients that you should use for the notebook questions)

Then run,

   
   jupyter notebook project3.ipynb

to get started. This will start the jupyter local server and open the notebook in your web browser.

Similarly to Project 2, submit your Project 3 notebook by Tuesday, 18 February, 9:59pm by creating a slack group (click “Direct Messages”) containing you and your teammate and the four course staff: @Dave @Denis Nekipelov @Cam @Kyeongtak Do. Submit your project to that group chat by attaching your jupyter notebook and Python script implementing your `match_kidneys` function for the competition problem to a message (use the “+” at the left of the message entry field to attach a file).

You should include a comment at the top of the notebook that contains:

  1. The names and UVA email ids of the people submitting (you and your teammates)
  2. A note on anyone else you collaborated with and how, and external resources you used.
