B652 Candidate Papers for Class Presentations

This page lists candiate papers for student presentations. The list includes 13 papers, of which 11 will be selected for presentation in class. Some of the links require IU subscriptions for access, so may only be accessible from an IU IP address.

Note that the presentations are to cover a topic, rather than simply a paper. The papers will be read by everyone in the class to give background and a common starting point. The presenters will beyond the paper in order to clarify questions, give perspective, persent in more depth or compare/contrast relevant related work, and present their own views.

Bidding for papers

By midnight on Tuesday, Feb 8, please submit on Oncourse a plain text file with your name and two ordered lists, one listing the numbers of the papers you'd most like to present (starting with first choice) and the other listing those for which you'd like to be a discussant. (If your orderings are the same, submitting a single list is fine.) Please include bids for all papers. Based on the bids, I'll assign the papers, trying to fit everyone's preferences as well as possible. Everyone will be assigned as presenter for one paper and discussant for two.
