How to do a Master’s Thesis

Wednesday, February 9th, 2011

It’s easy!

  1. Do background research in an area that interests you
  2. Find the fundamental papers, re-implement them
  3. Try to think of fundamental things you could change, do research to see if anyones done them
  4. If they have, take their papers and re-implement them
  5. Find a small way that you can change a fundamental assumption or extend it
  6. Implement your extension and compare
  7. Write it up and publish it

Now, I just need to explain heursitics and techniques to do each one of these :)
