Professor Sussman is very knowledgeable and kind. His lectures and materials are well structured. The projects were okay, but you need to take them seriously since correctness matters. The exam focused on memorization and wasn’t very difficult. And I believe he gave a generous curve for the final grades.

Pretty engaging lecturer (to me personally). He is clearly super knowledgeable about the subject, and he always makes the lectures interesting by giving context far beyond the papers presented. Projects were not insanely difficult, but they did force you to actually learn the techniques since performance was a part of the grading, which I found to be good.
