Statistical Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
I don't like how the article tries to push statistics on the reader. If a CS paper compares a pair of averages, then that gives certain information. If statistics can add to that, and make the results a little more precise, then that is nice. But by no means is it absolutely necessary. And statistics will not give a conclusive result either.<p>I think that authors should use statistics when they see fit, and when it does not distract too much from the original subject of the paper.
