A curated collection of manually selected research papers and articles that I find valuable for my research journey. Like an advent calendar, a new paper insight is shared each day, featuring my personal reflections and learnings from reading each work.

About This Collection

This page serves as an index of papers that have shaped my understanding of research methodology, robotics, AI, and related fields. Each entry links to a dedicated note where I discuss my thoughts, key takeaways, and how the paper relates to my research at the IT University of Copenhagen.

I follow the three-pass method for reading papers, as outlined in “How to Read a Paper” by S. Keshav. This disciplined approach helps me extract maximum value from each publication while managing my time effectively.

Day 1: “How to Read a Paper” by S. Keshav

Author(s): S. Keshav

Published: 2007

Domain: Research Methodology

A practical and efficient three-pass method for reading research papers. This foundational work outlines strategies for literature surveys and systematic paper evaluation.

Why I chose it: This is the perfect starting point. Before diving into domain-specific research, mastering the skill of reading papers efficiently is essential for any PhD student. Keshav’s three-pass approach is a game-changer for managing the overwhelming volume of academic literature.

My thoughts: Reading this paper reinforced the importance of structured reading strategies. The three-pass method not only saves time but also enhances comprehension by breaking down the reading process into manageable stages.
