PaperOps Demo

Run experiments and add results to a PDF with a single Make command

The goal of this project is to demonstrate a simple proof-of-concept in which every aspect of running results to including them in a paper is automated. Simply download the repo from GitHub, run make paper, and it outputs a PDF file with the results from some simple experiments.

Running this command runs 800 simple "experiments" and includes the resulting scatterplot and statistics in the PDF compliled via LaTeX:

make paper NUM_EXPERIMENTS=800 -j20

The resulting PDF resembles the following:

The following schematic of the dependency structure of the Makefile and so an overview of the outputs generated automatically to build the PDF of the paper:
