Candidate Paper List • Candidate Papers for the later half of the class is posted at: • http://www.cs.ucf.edu/~czou/CAP6135/notes.html
Paper Presentation – Face-to-Face Students • For face-to-face session students only • Each class will have three students present three papers • Each presentation lasts around 20~25 minutes • The teacher will give a summary at the end of lecture if we still have time • I will try to make each class’ papers fall into one research topic • So paper presentation time is fixed. If you pick one paper, you need to present that paper at its specified time
Paper Presentation – Face-to-Face Students • Each student only needs to do ONE paper presentation! • Student in-class participation is counted • Ask questions, answer questions, give comments… • The teacher will count it! • If you cannot come to classroom, email the teacher beforehand with reasons
Presentation Format • First page: • Show the paper title, authors, affiliations, published conference/journal name • Presenter name • Give acknowledgement if you reuse any content from other places besides the paper (even from the authors’ slides) • Three pages at the end of presentation: • Contribution: one page • The major contribution(s) of this paper • Weakness: one page • What weaknesses you can think of this paper? • Improvement: one page • How do you think to improve/extend the research in the paper?
Paper Summary • For online video streaming students only • Submit paper summary twice • Submit summary through Webcourse • I will put an announcement on webCourse one week before the due date • So pay attention to announcement! • Check WebCourse at least once per week! • Summarize one paper in each paper review assignment • You can pick any one paper you want to summarize that have been presented in class • Each paper’s summary needs to be at least two pages • Single column, single spaced, 12 point fonts
Summary Format • Summary: • Summarize what this paper is about? • Central ideas/contributions • Briefly describe how the authors show/verify their claims • Do not try to copy paper’s abstract or conclusion • Should be more technical and detailed than paper’s abstract • You can treat it as ‘extended abstract’ • Use your own words • Weakness: • Point out what the possible weaknesses exist in the paper • Use your own words, do not copy from the paper • Your thoughts: • Good? Bad? Interested? Boring? • Why do you think the paper is good or bad? • How to improve? Do you have a new idea on better work?
For paper summary, each paper can be picked by many students • For in-class presentation, each paper is exclusively allocated to one face-to-face student.
Solving Grading Bias Issue • Online session students and face-to-face session students may get different grade for this section, how to be fair? • I will make sure the average score for both sessions’ students in this portion is equal to each other • For example, if the average score of online students in this portion is 90, the average score of face-to-face students in this portion is 80, then: • All online students’ score in this portion will be multiplied with 8/9
