DESCRIPTION:Skills: How -not- to review a paper\, Ioannis Chatzigeorgiou\n
 \nThe objective of this talk is to demonstrate that writing a good review 
 is often more challenging than writing a good paper. We provide a few tips
  on how to review a paper and many examples of poor quality reviews based 
 on which we conclude that rejections and occasionally acceptances\, should
  not always be taken seriously.\n\nResearch: Giving off the Right Signals!
 \, Simon Fothergill\n\nI will present my recent research in the context of
  my proposed thesis.  It will contain material in practice for my keynote 
 session presentation at the Jesus College Graduate Conference at 5pm on Fr
 iday 2nd May. \n \nCapturing the movements of a person whilst they are per
 forming a physical task can provide signals from which it may be possible 
 to infer the quality of the technique used during the performance.  A valu
 e or description of this quality would allow applications to coach sports 
 or surgical technique or help avoid injury. \n \nRather than using expensi
 ve or unavailable biomechanical models to translate the movements into a m
 ore meaningful format\, a more abstract model is learnt from expertly labe
 led examples of athletes' performing indoor rowing.  The judgment of the q
 uality of individual aspects of the technique is compared with the expert 
 labeling for a number of populations of strokes.
