In the past two weeks, I’ve read through a total of 12 sources, four for each idea, and created annotated bibliographies based on them. While some of these papers are more useful than others, each has been helpful in one way or another – and, indeed, I’ve been able to find more papers to look into further as I modify my ideas based off of both peer feedback and my own research. Some papers have given me actual algorithms to either implement or look at as a building block for my own- others have shown me, for example, how much one of my ideas (copyright detection) is already extensively researched, and pointed me towards new directions in which I could modify the project to make it something original.
