You will submit your suggestions in the usual way. Text and PDF are acceptable formats. As before, submit your reviews as PAPERCODE.{txt,pdf} and do not include your name on them (these are blind reviews after all).

This assignment is worth 7.5% of your final grade, i.e., 50% of your "reviewer activities" grade. Again, if you fail to complete this activity, you will have failed to fulfill your duties as a reviewer, which will reflect poorly on you at the end of the semester.

Why?

Well, if nothing else because reviewers review. That's how it works. More broadly, you should realize that this is your opportunity to learn a great deal about a specific area of machine learning and to develop enough background and expertise that you can critically review another's work.

What to turn in

For each paper you have been assigned, fill out a review form. You must justify each one of your responses. Be concise, but do not acheive conciseness by staying in the abstract. Be concrete. Sound familiar?
