A long time ago I got a paper with my name on it in PNAS because a professor I knew had been invited to submit one as part of a conference (bypassing the usual peer review) so I got together with another prof and a student and we smashed together a few student research projects into https://arxiv.org/pdf/cs/0312018 which I think is a good paper from the viewpoint of "correctness" but on another level isn't a normal research paper as it isn't about one project. A lot of weird stuff goes on like this in academic publishing. When I was studying physics I got invited to present at a CS conference on Java in academic computing and didn't really understand the opportunity I would have had to have gotten a paper published pretty easily based on my attendance (e.g. really connections, I knew people who knew Geoff Fox who was organizing it) |
