About this site

Chenru Duan brings together its original subject material and a separately authored editorial reading room focused on machine-learning research methods.

What the reading room provides

The original project descriptions remain available as dated research material. Separately authored editorial notes explore how to inspect an experiment, identify its information boundaries and connect a reported result with the procedure that produced it.

These guides support careful reading and clear records. They distinguish an original project or publication from a new editorial explanation, and an observed result from a hypothetical example.

Attribution

New guides are signed Editorial team. This identifies the website’s editorial contribution; it does not claim authorship by a person whose original work appears in the collection, a professional licence, or current affiliation with a historical business or institution. Original publications retain their own dates and attribution where available.

Finding a useful starting point

Use the topics page for the purpose of each guide and the blog for the reviewed reading list. Sources appear alongside the claims they support. Examples are labelled when hypothetical, and unresolved historical material is kept separate from the current reading list.
