How did they generate their posters? The poster winners used the same software?

I have extensively used Pages (macOS) for my past posters. Here's an example [0]

Adobe InDesign or Illustrator at the high end, Powerpoint, Pages, or Google Slides at the low end. I've found Illustrator the best compromise between power and simplicity (provided you have a license).

Powerpoint works surprisingly well. E.g. http://darzu.io/files/daryl-verso-pldi-poster.pdf

I have used powerpoint in the past, it's pretty effective.

Powerpoint or Keynote are popular for this type of work. I've used Inkscape to quite satisfactory results.

I would really advise against using Latex for posters.

Why don't you like LaTeX? I find it great for posters.

Likewise. And it's the only way to get decent typesetting on complex equations for one - though it might be a mistake to include those on many posters.

FWIW, I believe the most recent versions of Pages and Keynote both support inline LaTeX.

In my lab most of the poster templates were already fairly standard and available on a shared drive. Also anecdotally, I stopped sending my professor LaTeX documents as soon as she said she didn't know how to open them/wouldn't be bothered. It was a point of pride for some professors to use LaTeX, but we generally used word for the edit tracking feature to publish efficiently.

I've even used Google Slides for stuff like this. As long as you're not worried about getting accurate colours you don't need anything fancy.

Did the winner just run this repository? https://github.com/junyanz/pytorch-CycleGAN-and-pix2pix Looks like they didn't do a whole lot else than that and change some parameters.

Except for one weekly in-person lecture (and the project-related material) cs230 consisted of deep learning.ai Coursera modules, so videos and code are on coursera.

How advanced are those student in their studies when they take this course?

Their work is probably good but I can't help but think many of the reports/posters seem underwhelming. I doubt they would be accepted at the universities I know.

It's a 10 week course, while taking other courses, these are quite good.
