Writing Self-Test

Here are some outtakes of papers which have common mistakes on them. Can you spot all mistakes?

Example 1

• The sentence in the center is way too long. Parsing it is a pain. Recommendation: Split it up into several sentences.
• The word calculate sounds awful.
• Never use $min$ as this reads as (:latex:)$m\cdot i \cdot n$(:latexend:) but use $\min$ instead which becomes (:latex:)$\min$(:latexend:).
• Do not use bullet points in any paper!
• Use aligned equations such that the equal signs are all aligned.
• Make sure that the last line (:latex:)$D(n-1,m)\ldots$(:latexend:) is aligned with the (:latex:)$D(n-1,m)\ldots$(:latexend:) above.

Example 2

• You do not "apply Gaussian conditioning" (makes no sense) but you condition on variable X.
• This way of writing a Gaussian is meaningless. The Vectors and Matrices should be written as a such.
• The comma should be removed.
