==How I read papers== | |||
I'm not very experienced but here is how I read papers: | |||
* Watch their video. | |||
** Their video will give a high-level summary. Usually video explanations are faster/easier to understand. | |||
** Sometimes they show their results. Pay attention to problems in their results. | |||
** If they don't have a video, look for a third-party one on YouTube. | |||
* Read the abstract. | |||
* Look through all figures and captions. | |||
* Read the Intro and Methods. | |||
** Tells you the problem they're addressing and their approach to addressing it. | |||
** What is the input to and output of their pipeline? | |||
* Read the Related Works section. | |||
** This gives you an idea of what others have tried. Especially important if you don't work in the field. | |||
* Read the Evaluation section. | |||
** Usually this is just a bunch of tables and numbers but it can give you links to datasets and a reference for some benchmarks. | |||
** This is important if you plan on building upon the work. | |||
