+ | ====Publication Types==== | ||
+ | | Conference paper | Typically limited to 8 or 10 pages (given a specific line space, margin, and font size) | | ||
+ | | Conference poster | ||
+ | | Conference short paper | Sometimes offered. Sometimes alternative if an interesting paper did not get sufficiently good review to be included in its entirety. | ||
+ | | Conference position paper | Presents a particular argument; does not include data or results | ||
+ | | Journal paper | The "big brother" | ||
+ | | Books | Books are a good option for material that (1) is solid and should be conveniently collected in one compact reference, (2) requires more space than is typically offered by journals (>50 pages), (3) is of general interest and should be distributed to the general public. | ||

+ | \\ | ||

+ | |||
+ | ====Peer Review==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | | What is it? | Before replication of results can be undertaken by the scientific community, results must be published. When a scientist reviews another scientist' | ||
+ | | The peer | A scientist should be an authority in his/her field -- is there anyone who has a higher authority? Yes, the scientific method, in other words the **scientific** community. To review their work current work scientists enlist the practical embodiment of this community -- their peers. | ||
+ | | How current scientific work gets evaluated | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====The Peer Review Process==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | | Step 0 | Scientist does research, writes up results and submits a scientific paper to a selected outlet. | ||
+ | | Step 1 | Editor or conference chair receives submission, decides who should review. The selected review group, typically 3 or more scientists knowledgeable in the field in question, is called the peer review group. | ||
+ | | Step 2 | Paper sent to peer review group (typically 3 reviewers) with a deadline for returning their review, along with instructions. | ||
+ | | Step 3 | Editor gets reviews back from reviewers. | ||
+ | | Step 4 | Editor has to decide, based on reviews, whether to (1) accept paper as-is, with no changes (very rare!); (2) accept paper with minor revisions; (3) accept paper with major revisions; (4) reject paper. | ||
+ | | Step 5 | Editor sends result of reviews along with his decision for 1, 2, 3 or 4 above. | ||
+ | | Step 6 | Conclusion 1, great! You're done. Your paper will be published as-is. \\ Conclusion 2: Use the reviews to improve your paper, send back to editor. Editor may request a shortlist of how you improved the paper. Your paper will be published with your changes. \\ Conclusion 3: You will need to do major work to improve the paper (e.g. more experiments or compare more algorithms or systems). Your paper will probably be reviewed by the same 3 reviewers. The editor may ask you for a shortlist of how you addressed the reviewers' | ||

+ | |||
+ | ====Peer Review Instructions==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | | Several categories are used when reviewing | ||
+ | | Quality of Work | Use your experience with the subject, and of course with other papers. Look at the content, not where the author comes from or where he/she does the work. Be honest. Be fair. If it's bad, say so. You do not do anyone a favor by trying to "be nice" -- in fact, being " | ||

+ | | Clarity of writing | ||

+ | |||
+ | ====Being a Peer Reviewer==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | | Rule number one | When you are requested to be a peer reviewer, accept. Firstly, it is your duty as a scientist to help out, even if it is not paid work! Secondly, it can really improve your own writing to read other people' | ||
+ | | When you get the paper + instructions | ||
+ | | Follow the instructions | ||
+ | | First mistake | ||
+ | | Second mistake | ||

+ | |||
+ | ====Guidelines for Reviewing Papers ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Typically you lay out the categories that matter in your review, even before you start. | ||
+ | * Categories often used are: | ||
+ | * Clarity and ease of reading (including structure, figures, explanations, | ||
+ | * Quality of the written English (grammar, spelling, and related) | ||
+ | * Novelty - how much of an advance on current state of the art is the work (this should only play a minor role in your review here, since the assignment does not emphasize this factor) | ||
+ | * Impact - potential for the work to have impact, both scientific, technological, | ||
+ | * It is useful to have a category called "minor comments" | ||
+ | * Do at least two read-through passes - especially to ensure that your early comments are coherent and consistent with those made later (often you see e.g. a better place to make a comment than the initial place you mentioned it) | ||
+ | * You should take notes while you read, some of which will probably change in a second pass | ||
+ | * Keep these questions in mind at all times: What are the most important things for the author to address? What is the most useful way for me to explain what these issues are? | ||
