\section{Revision plan}\label{plan-of-action}
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
\textbf{(Joe, Alison): Significantly clarify the argument and
summarise it in the introduction.}
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
We are offering one possible computational definition of serendipity
\item
Serendipity is not the same as luck. ~It's a matter of learning
something, in a way that's unanticipated. ~Looking for something and
finding something else.
\item
Explain the aspects of the model better, e.g.~why is it essential that
the trigger is not under the control of the system.
\item
Clearly summarise the offering of the paper.
\end{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
\setcounter{enumi}{1}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
\textbf{(Joe): Move our formal definition of serendipity (e.g.~the
diagram) up to meet the literature review, as a new section `Formal
definition of Serendipity'. (It's a key contribution of the paper.)}
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
We will clearly connect the heuristic criteria from Alison with the
figure.
\item
In addition a quick graphical summary of the 13 criteria
\end{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
\setcounter{enumi}{2}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
\textbf{(Joe): Drop sections 3 and 4, and move key concepts to
``future work''}
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
Section 3 (FloWr) - heavily condense and put into future work (some
overview of Joe's concrete implementation plans). ~Explain with
minimal references.
\item
Section 4 (Design patterns) - heavily condensed - ``Just So Stories''
paragraph in Section 5.3 as a potential application. ~Explain some
history about design patterns and say that, for serendipity, the
question is where do new ``design'' ideas come from. ~(I.e. discovery
of a new approach.) ~But make this future work.
\item
``We are highlighting how design patterns and the other ideas in this
paper could be used to build a context where serendipity will take
place.''
\end{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
\setcounter{enumi}{3}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
\textbf{(Anna): Remove Section 5.3 (save it for another paper about
Writers Workshops). It's relevant for ``embedded creativity'' but
``Writers Workshops'' themselves can be a footnote. The actual idea
here is more general.}
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
Anna can add more about evaluation in the creative process
\item
The idea of the WW (or just social revision) is an example of a place
where serendipity can occur.
\end{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
\setcounter{enumi}{4}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
\textbf{(Anna): Leading into our thought experiment: ``An emerging
theme in computing is exploitation of social creativity and feedback.
Our computational model contributes to theorising this work.''}
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
Include another example with computational serendipity? Maybe the
example from Kaz's thesis
\item
It would not be hard to find an example of a music system noticing
that a note was wrong and playing. Make sure we include at least one
example that is not ``technically improbable'' -- better to include
several that have been realised (e.g.~Copycat)
\end{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
\setcounter{enumi}{5}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
\textbf{(Christian): Copycat or any other historical examples of
serendipity in computing, or explanation of why there are none (argue
for or against, in the background section, as a new ยงยง, and perhaps
again later in the document as a further analysis to accompany our
thought experiment).}
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
Concrete lower bound examples and counterexamples, e.g.~would it be
possible for ``merely generative'' systems to exhibit serendipity? --
case of genetic algorithms
\item
What is the difference between serendipity and good luck? (E.g. a
random act that leads to an outcome that is evaluated positively.)
\item
What are the strict requirements and what are only the supportive
factors that make serendipity ``likely''? Or is it a matter of degree?
\item
Is it the case that serendipitous systems would be more `sagacious' in
recognizing interesting triggers? - explain, especially in connection
with computational search.
\item
What about `regular' systems that work by applying inference
procedures on symbolic representations to yield new representations?
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
e.g.~theorem provers
\end{itemize}
\item
Evaluate existing approaches to ``computational learning'' - are they
serendipitous?
\end{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
\setcounter{enumi}{6}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
\textbf{(Simon, Alison): Clarify the extent to which serendipity is
something that ``actually exists'' or is something that is only
perceived to exist.}
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
It does not seem to be an ``essentially contested concept'', just a
potentially confusing one. One contribution of the paper is to clarify
this.
\item
Clarify the relationship to other key concepts in computational
creativity / creative computing
\end{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
\setcounter{enumi}{7}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
\textbf{(Alison): Include a section early on that defines any other
keywords that we refer to later, like the word ``dynamic''.}
\item
\textbf{(Alison): Improve exposition of the analysis of Pek van
Andel's patterns.}
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\item
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{(\arabic{enumi})}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
What do we hope to achieve with this analysis, and our diagram?
\end{enumerate}
\item
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{(\arabic{enumi})}
\setcounter{enumi}{1}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
Have we done the analysis in some verifiable way, i.e. ``where does
the analysis come from (i.e.~which aspect occurs in which pattern)?
Is there clear consensus on this?''
\end{enumerate}
\end{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
\setcounter{enumi}{9}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
\textbf{(Joe, all): Make referencing less intensive for the reader.}
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
Use APA style referencing and cut down on number of references.
\item
Clearly explain in narrative form what sort of literature we will draw
on.
\item
Perhaps the historical examples of serendipity should be confined to a
separate ``recommended reading'' section and not referenced directly
in the text.
\end{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
\setcounter{enumi}{10}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
\textbf{(Christian, Anna): Shorten and improve the literature review.}
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
Preserve key features of the general survey, but include a more
thorough review of recent related work in computing, including work in
the Cognitive Computation journal.
\item
There has been prior work on surprise (Mary Lou Maher + Kazjon Grace -
\href{http\%20s://www.google.com/url?q=https\%3A\%2F\%2Fwww.aaai.org\%2Focs\%2Findex.php\%2F\%20WS\%2FAAAIW14\%2Fpaper\%2Fview\%2F8779\&sa=D\&sntz=1\&usg=AFQjCNGFIWctyzoi4ZSfD\%20oIrAznrL4Be0g}{https://www.aaai.org/ocs/index.php/WS/AAAIW14/paper/view/8779}
and also their paper at ICCC 2013 or 2014) and discovery (Kaz's AAAI
paper)
\end{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\def\labelenumi{\arabic{enumi}.}
\setcounter{enumi}{11}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
\textbf{(Joe): Confine philosophy references (e.g.~Bergson, Deleuze)
to the background section so that it doesn't confuse anyone about what
we're actually offering in the paper.}
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
Don't refer to them in the conclusion, but do summarise the
contribution of this paper again in the conclusion (hint: it should be
what we say in the title).
\item
Re-summarise again in the abstract.
\end{itemize}
