This site contains short summaries of papers related to what I am working on or that I am thinking about.

The goal is to create mini research surveys in different areas. These will probably not be comprehensive, will certainly be skewed by whatever my interest in a field may be and flawed by the fact that I will typically an outsider/newcomer to the field struggling to make sense of what I am reading and to find the important papers in a sea of publications.

At the moment, this is just an experiment. I have not yet decided whether to publicise it or to keep it just for my personal use. What would I do if somebody wanted to contribute to it? What would I do if I really disliked a paper that I read? I might just delete it tomorrow.

The tooling around this site is pretty simple at the moment: I have repurposed the Jekyll material from my website (which is based on Barry Clark's Jekyll Now and I have a Python script that converts BibTeX entries to page templates. But ideally this would be much more integrated with one or more of the main research search engines like Google Scholar - perhaps as some form of overlay over the basic website.
