Heavy Reading Group on CRF?

Are enough people here this Friday to read a paper? We have missed a few weeks already.

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

Poll for Heavy Reading Group

A poll was added to the blog, but it doesn't have the option to add new items or to see who voted what. So we'll still have to pick the next topic and presenter somehow. Maybe we'll have volunteers once we see what the most popular topic is.

Next "lite" reading group will take place on:

[24 july 2009]

Presented by:

[Radu]
