论文摘要
除文本文档外，研究论文是研究人员通过该界面进行交流的设计界面。最近，快速增长改变了许多计算领域的界面。在这项工作中，我们通过媒体考古学的角度研究了这种增长的影响，通过研究论文中的数字和表的变化。具体而言，我们研究了过去十年来计算机视觉的这些变化，因为深度学习革命驱动了学科前所未有的增长。我们通过对涵盖计算机视觉，图形和可视化的资深研究人员的访谈进行调查。我们的分析重点是研究注意经济：研究论文元素如何为广告，衡量和传播日益商品化的“贡献”做出贡献。通过这项工作，我们试图激励未来的讨论，围绕研究论文本身的设计以及更大的社会技术研究出版系统，包括用于查找，阅读和撰写研究论文的工具。
Research papers, in addition to textual documents, are a designed interface through which researchers communicate. Recently, rapid growth has transformed that interface in many fields of computing. In this work, we examine the effects of this growth from a media archaeology perspective, through the changes to figures and tables in research papers. Specifically, we study these changes in computer vision over the past decade, as the deep learning revolution has driven unprecedented growth in the discipline. We ground our investigation through interviews with veteran researchers spanning computer vision, graphics, and visualization. Our analysis focuses on the research attention economy: how research paper elements contribute towards advertising, measuring, and disseminating an increasingly commodified "contribution." Through this work, we seek to motivate future discussion surrounding the design of both the research paper itself as well as the larger sociotechnical research publishing system, including tools for finding, reading, and writing research papers.
