Stone | In academia, to get Ph.D., tenure, promotions, funding, prestige, etc. In real industry, usually to solve problems (but publications impress people). Some of the research published in top journals is immensely useful in practice, most of it is not .I try to optimize (optimally balance) end to end rigor (usefulness, correctness), all the way through to implementation and real-world complexities and unknowns.. Most of academia goes for absolute rigor for some portion of a problem, but often (implicit) huge hand-waving or non-rigor at the beginning or ending step connection to real world. | |
