I have just started my doctoral in NLP Domain. As I can see there are a lot of papers in this research area, what I realized while doing a literature review is that good publication, or any publication are complicated and it may take me some years to have something which can be delivered. Thus What is something else I can do apart from publications that might give positive weightage as an academician career-wise, a biweekly newsletter, or some technical paper that goes into some recent outstanding paper in my field
consistency is the key to success. You need to spend daily 3-4 hrs on your research. This advice is based on my personal experience.
Would it not be possible to integrate projects of your more senior team members and make focussed, small contributions, in that way starting to get familiar with academic publishing?
