\begin{abstract} 

The abstract should clearly state that this report is a critical analysis of your paper and in addition contain a very brief introduction to your chosen paper. This includes a short account on the general scenario and the problem that the authors address, their reasons why it is a relevant contribution, and what methods are used in order to solve it. This does \textbf{not} include an assessment on the used methods or any detailed description thereof.

The abstract should not be longer than a \textbf{third of a page}.

\section{Paper Summary}
\label{sec:summary}

The paper summary is the major part of the report and should be approximately \textbf{five pages} long.

It should contain a detailed account on the scenario and problem description within the paper and their motivation for addressing the problem.

Furthermore, you should carefully present the theoretical section of the paper in a more concise way, e.g.:
\begin{itemize}
\item Which equations have been derived and used in the paper and which of these are actually necessary to follow the experiments and results?
\item Can algorithms be simplified by briefly summarizing their purpose in the paper?
\item Skip unnecessarily detailed accounts on hardware or external work, if it is not necessary to follow the experiments and your discussion in the next section.
\item etc.
\end{itemize}
While summarizing the used theoretical methods, everything should still be clear to the reader. If you, e.g., decide to exclude a derivation to an equation, clearly mention that the authors have derived it in the paper and you have excluded it for your analysis.

Finally, summarize the performed experiments and the results in the paper and give an assessment on the author's discussion of their own method.

You may structure this section any way you like using the \verb|\subsection|, \verb|\subsubsection|, etc.\ tags. If you think that the structure of the paper is not ideal to help the reader follow your report, especially after summarizing it, feel free to adjust it.

\section{Discussion}
\label{sec:discussion}

This section should contain a discussion of the paper and be approximately \textbf{one page} long.

The discussion should give a critical assessment on the contribution and relevance of the paper for the robotic community and discuss whether the authors present a new solution to a yet unaddressed problem.

Furthermore, you should discuss whether the authors have presented their methods in an easy-to-follow manner. If other researchers would try to use the methods of the paper, would it be possible to easily reproduce the results or are essential points missing?

You should also discuss if the presented experiments are satisfactory to support any claimed contribution within the paper or if other experiments are necessary or might be beneficial. Additionally, can you think of experiments where the presented method might fail and why?

Finally, give an account on the completeness of the author's critical discussion on their own method and present your own ideas on how to improve upon the approach in the paper.

\section{Conclusion}
\label{sec:conclusion}

The conclusion should briefly summarize the content of the paper and contain the outcome on your own analysis and discussion of the paper; this should be approximately \textbf{half a page} long.

Please note that you should not copy any text directly from the paper, unless there is a reason for it, e.g., disproving a quoted claim in the paper within your discussion (Section \ref{sec:discussion}).

It is important that you have fully understood the paper, in order to provide a sensible summary and discussion. This may also include reading further cited papers, which you may also include at any point in this analysis if it helps in understanding certain aspects.
