Listen to the professor to talk about the paper

A young professor from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (over 40 years old, ACM member, and IEEE senior member) who attended the experiment with hunger. Although his speech mainly targets at the doctor's degree, he wrote almost all the papers. In this regard, he said a few insightful and bold words:

1. One article only describes one idea. If there are several ideas, the author can split them into several papers to write-_-B.

2. General papers can be summarized in a few words (or a paragraph. He thinks that he is relatively lazy. He never studies formulas in his thesis, nor does he suggest students study formulas.

3. When reviewing a review, I generally only read the summary and introduction, unless it solves the famous problems in the field. Good journals and conferences may not be well accepted ArticleBut the summary and introduction of these articles must be well written, although the content or applicability may not be very good.

4. It is important to publish the first paper.

In addition, there are four routines in the thesis: New Problems + new methods; new problems + old methods; Old Problems + new methods; Old Problems + old methods. For most people, especially students, to develop papers, we generally choose the fourth type. The strategy is to combine various ideas.

Of course, he also ridiculed many other topics, because I did not take notes, so the above is just my personal understanding and sorting out some important points. My mentor also talked about similar topics, although not so straightforward. Indeed, these ideas are of great value and we can avoid detours.
