Choices for the next light reading group

Hi ppl,

Looks like i have to (unfortunately:-) do the next light reading group (4th Sep). But I have 3 choices, all of which i enjoyed reading.

(1) Overview paper on computational social science by pentland et al.,
(2) Statistical basis for performance evaluation.
(3) A classic paper on how and what can you measure?

Take a look at the files present in /homes/sparta/reading_group and comment on what you would prefer to read.

Thanks,
Hari

    it's ok. I'm sure that there will be enough people for the reading group. It's more important that it's not delayed too often. I know some people are away this week but they will be back next week. You can speak to people about it next week at the IM2 summer institute too.

    Hi all,
    Please give me your choice by today. So far, it is a tie and so I am inclined to select (1)...
    Thanks,

    All are ok with me, maybe we should pick the 'lightest' one since there isn't much time left.

    As Kate and Dinesh say, there isnt much time left to read harder ones (in particular 2). So let us pick the lightest one: (1). It is stored as compsocial.pdf in my folder /homes/sparta/reading_group.


    Thanks,
    Hari
