How to research?

原文来源： 周志华老师

1. why writing?

• peer-review 经过同行评审，成为科学文献
• fundmental research ---application 分阶段性地展示自己的结果

学术界前沿研究 -> 实验室技术成熟/工业界新技术 -> 工业界技术成熟

2. time arrangement
   80% do + 20% write
   有研究成果才有东西可写，论文是“做”出来的，不是“写”出来的。

3 . how to research ？
topic -> Problem -> Idea -> Concrete work -> paper writing -> submit

从感兴趣的topic开始读论文，从论文中发现problem，思考自己的idea，考虑idea的可行性（数据能否获得？数学是否过关？编程是否过关？idea的创新性？），concrete work 开始理论研究+实验分析（不会做找人合作）

4. 稿件处理流程

• Journal
  • 编辑部/ 主编（Editor-in-chief）收到稿件
  • 转给合适的Associate Editor
  • AE找reviewer审稿
  • Reviewer的意见到AE手中汇总
  • AE作出意见： accept/ revision/ reject
  • Editor-in-chief 审定

5. Reviewer 主要考察内容

• Relevance 相关性
• Originality 创新性
• Signification 重要性
• Soundness 支撑性
• Presentation 表述性

In summy, reviewer will check:

• Does this paper introduce a new problem or provide a new solution to a existing one ?
• What is the main result of this paper?
• Is this result significant?
• technically sound?
• Does the paper provide an assertment of the strength and weakness of the result?
• whether accessible (to most researchers in this area?)
• whether refer appropriate related works?

• Strength and weakness of D
• future works on D
