Right now, I have the paper at 9 lines over the limit ?

Sorry augur. I mentioned the rest of them before.

Ok, we’re back to fitting in the page limit. Could someone please double-check my changes? I don’t want to (re)submit without that sanity check.

@carette which changes should I check?

I would go to https://github.iu.edu/ccshan/ppaml/commits/master and check all 6, from 170710c to 91e3dba. I could have goofed on any of them.

I similarly just read the diffs of all 3 of your check-ins — I did not spot any problems.

[Not that we’re quite ready for that, but when we submit the final version, should I update the preprint on arxiv as well?]

Yes, I think so

@carette I just read all those changes and made a couple small edits, otherwise it looks good to me

we still fit, with 10 lines of space

@carette I don’t know if you’re using different software or font versions, but would you please not remove information if it doesn’t make the paper shorter?

I made commit 7c2c8bcc7c0d75b1109e41c63e19072d195382d4 to fit in 25 pages exactly.

@ccshan there must indeed be something different about my latex setup. I don’t intend to make anymore changes, I’m happy with the paper. Sorry about removing stuff, I genuinely thought that we were over the limit. Do feel free to bring bits of sentences back in if it doesn’t change the length! I’m not attached to any of the changes I made.

I encourage you to diffpdf! You can get the latest paper from hotcrp that I just uploaded.

diffpdf won’t work for me, I’m on a Mac laptop (which is possibly the source of the differences)

I’m sure you can figure out how to compare pdfs…

I’m sure — although I don’t think it is worthwhile for me to do it today.

I think the paper is fine to be submitted as it (i.e. the version right now on hotcrp seems great).

sadly adding a citation to the 1894 paper on GMMs breaks pages poorly

Let me see the change and try to help

pushed

I also added citations to JAGS and Mallet

Page limit restored

(current upload on hotcrp is out of date)

i updated it

I notice we don’t say much about Edward

Nods

should we say more? the statement we make about “tries not to” is somewhat cryptic

I just don’t know enough about Edward. I have not found their paper and talks easy to get non-superficial knowledge from.
