2018-02-27Better comments on TeX preamblesMohammad Akhlaghi-4/+34
The comments in the preambles were made more clear and elaborate.
2018-02-27Default PDF now uses PGFPlots and BibLaTeXMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+4
Making plots and including references are integral parts of a scientific paper. Therefore to demonstrate how cleanly they can be used within the pipeline, they are now used to produce the final PDF. To use PGFPlots a random dataset is made (using AWK's random function) and is plotted using PGFPlots. The minimum and maximum values of the dataset are also included in the text to further show how such calculations can go into the macros and text. For the references, the NoiseChisel paper was added as a reference to cite when using this pipeline along with the MUSE UDF paper I, which uses this pipeline for two sections. Following this discussion, citation is also discussed in `README.md` and the NoiseChisel paper is also added as a published work with a reproduction pipeline.
2018-02-27Copyrights and TeX management made more clearMohammad Akhlaghi-14/+54
Until now, the copyright statement was left empty for the users of the pipeline to fill. However, the files have already been created and have an author (or contributing authors) before the user starts using the pipeline. So the original authors of the files are added along with the year. The user can add their own name to the existing files under the "Contributing author" when they start and they will be the "Original author" of the new files they create. Several changes were also made to the TeX management: - LaTeX is run within a `reproduce/build/tex/build' directory now. Not in the top reproduction pipeline directory. This helps keep all the auxiliary TeX files and directories in that directory and keep the top reproduction pipeline directory clean. After the final PDF is built, a copy is put in the top reproduction pipeline directory for easy viewing. - The PGFPlots preamble was also made more useful, allowing the name of the `.tex' file to also be the name of the final plot that is produced. This is a GREAT feature, because without it, the TiKZ externalization would be based on order of the plots within the paper. But now, order is irrelevant and we can even delete the TiKZ files within the processing workhorse-Makefiles so the plots are definitly rebuilt on the next run. - The paper is now in a two-column format to be more similar to published papers. A tip on debugging Make was added to `README.md'.
2018-02-07First commit to the reproduction pipeline templateMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+33
Let's start working on this pipeline independently with this first commit. It is based on my previous experiences, but I had never made a skeleton of a pipeline before, it was always within a working analysis. But now that the pipeline has a separate repository for its self, we will be able to work on it and use it as a base for future work and modify it to make it even better. Hopefully in time (and with the help of others), it will grow and become much more robust and useful.
