Doing A Literature Survey - Deepstash

Doing A Literature Survey

Doing a literature survey is a bit different than reading a single paper. 

  1. First pass: In the first pass you have to collect potentially useful papers. Find 3 to 5 recent papers. You can now continue with the usual first pass procedure. You can also skim through the references to see if the papers have any citations in common. Common citations are good candidates to include in your survey.
  2. Second pass: Vist the author's websites and see if you can find any recent work. Download the commonly cited papers. 
  3. Third pass: Try to visit the websites of the top conferences or journals.
