Structure of a Paper Title Abstract Introduction Background/Related Works Motivation Proposed Method Experimental Setup Experimental Results Future Works Conclusion Paul3

Title Interesting/eye catching so that people like to read Relevant so that people find similarity with content Broader so that reflect bigger picture Paul4

Abstract Content: First one/two lines: Mention the area in broad sense Subsequent lines: Problem of existing system(s) Subsequent lines: Probable solution in broader sense Conclusive lines: What would be the outcome Paul5

Introduction Content: First paragraph: Overall area of research, applications etc. to mention that the research area is an important area Second paragraph: Existing systems, algorithms, or approaches in the area of research. You may mention problems here Third paragraph: You can add figure/table/argument to demonstrate the problem and make your solution relevant Fourth paragraph: Your solution in high level using theoretical/mathematical analysis/argument Fifth paragraph: Organization of papers (which section tells what) Paul6

Background/Related Works Sometimes we do not need this, Introduction can have this Content: Literature review Concept/terminology to under the proposed method, etc. Ultimately you need to prove your approach is crucial to solve an important problem Paul7

Motivation Sometimes we do not need this, Introduction/Background/Related Works can have this Content: Provide table/figure/data to motivate the proposed method If it is only argument, you may not need this separate section Paul8

Proposed Method Content: Total description of your method May have number of Sub-Sections Describe in such a way that the paper is self-content Add figures/tables etc. Side effect analysis is vital for journal publications For journal you may need 6/10 figures/tables For conference you may need 2/3 figures/tables Paul9

Experimental Setup Content: Benchmark dataset (why they are bench mark) Parameters for Approach Techniques you are comparing with, why? Paul10

Experimental Results Content: Criteria for comparison Results Good discussion for abnormal behavior of data People are interested on exceptional things A lot of implication analysis for proposed approaches (for journal and conferences) Paul11

Future Works Content: Should include limitations of the approach (Some people say “No”) Should include how you can improve those limitations (some people say “be conservative”) Paul12

Conclusions Content: Repeat your abstract? Using more specific information as people already know your paper A summary of the paper Paul13

Paper Reading-1 I read a paper if Title is relevant to me? Journal/Conference is good/reasonable? Authors are well known in the field(s)? How I read Is the problem important? What their solution? Reasonable in terms of theoretical point of view? What the techniques they compare with? Result is reasonably significant? Do they use benchmark data set, state-of-the-art methods? Paul14

Paper Reading-2 You will find Problem of a paper in Second/Third lines of the Abstract First/Second paragraph of the Introduction You will find solution Third/fourth lines of the abstract Second/Third paragraph or last second paragraph of Introduction Experimental results Brief results in conclusions Elaborative results in experimental section Paul15

Paper Reading-3 One Gold medal is better than many silver/bronze medals in publications (?) Take the best paper to start your research problem Take the latest paper to start your research problem Paul16
