Class Administration Important class URLs http://www.cs.odu.edu/~mln/teaching/cs834-f15/ http://groups.google.com/group/cs834-f15/ Readings, syllabus, schedule, etc. are all available from the class home page

Books required (chapters numbers are relative to this book) recommended recommended

Class Resources Croft book & Manning book both have significant web sites with resources (code, test sets, slides, etc.) Croft book is now free for download! Class slides will be from the Croft book site with occasional additions and annotations as the semester unfolds; check email list and class home page

Grading Five written assignments based on end of chapter questions 10 points for each assignment, 5 questions per assignment Five in-class presentations based on end of chapter “further readings” 10 points for each presentation

Written Assignments Written like a report… using LaTeX and graphs done in R or Gnuplot Neither MS Word nor MS Excel graphs are acceptable! where necessary: references, screen shots, copy-n-paste of code output, etc. Five questions chosen from an approved list (by me) from the end of each chapter, possibly with additional questions created by me Due at beginning of class: email me .tar.gz copy of .tex, .r, .bib, .pdf, etc. files hard copy of report

Grading Written Assignments For each of the five questions: 0: understanding not demonstrated 1: surface / practitioner understanding demonstrated 2: deep / researcher understanding demonstrated “demonstration” means written down with examples, graphs, code, arguments, figures, tables, etc. It does not mean explaining to me verbally after you have received your grade Points will be deducted at my discretion for messy, unattractive, incomplete, etc. written reports

Presentations Given in class, ~25-35 minutes each (we’ll adjust time based on final enrollment) Pick one of the seminal research papers (i.e., not books, web sites, etc.) from the “references and further reading” section at end of chapters Find a single paper that cites your chosen seminal paper I suggest using Google Scholar, MS Academic Search, etc. Citing paper must be from: WWW, SIGIR, ECIR, WSDM, CIKM, VLDB, SIGMOD, JCDL, JASIST, ACM Transactions, IPM Contact me to see if another conf/journal is suitable

http://scholar. google. com/scholar http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=The+anatomy+of+a+large-scale+hypertextual+Web+search+engine&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C4 7

Picking Papers Send to class email list to claim your seminal paper + citing paper There will be no overlap of seminal papers; first-come-first-served as determined by time received at the class email archives (i.e., not time of delivery to your client) Seminal papers without a chosen corresponding citing paper are not considered valid entries The only way you can change your entry is if you lose a tie with someone else (i.e., your email is 2nd in the list). Otherwise, you have to stick with the papers you’ve chosen

Presenting the Pair You must present/explain the primary contribution of the seminal paper, and then explain how the citing paper extends/refutes/refines/etc. the original paper Purpose: understand/explain the primary contribution as well as the work that builds on it Examples: different architectures now possible, refined algorithms, different applications, efficiency improvements, additional evaluation, etc. Must demonstrate a fundamental & deep understanding of concepts and contributions

Deliverables Immediately after your in-class presentation, email me your slides Slides must be your own work! You cannot reuse the slides of others! I will add your slides to class home page after your presentation Scores based on: Demonstrated understanding of the original concept (0-4) Demonstrated understanding of the citing paper and how it builds on the original concept (0-4) Aesthetics (neat, no misspellings, pedagogically efficient, etc.) (0-2)
