Article Summaries: Series Introduction

Posted on by

The article summary series highlights articles that I think are interesting and important. The articles are classified as either classics (e.g., theory papers, review papers, and other seminal works) and modern (e.g., high-quality contemporary work). In each summary, I include the motivation for the work, critical information, and why it’s important.
