Annenburg Fellowship for PhD in CS at USC...area - Computer Vision

@all Can you please tell me if it is possible to leave after completing MS even if you are enrolled in a PhD Program. Whats are the pros/cons of doing such a thing?

Again if you see the list of profs sorted with H-index, many few MIT Profs make it to the top 50....this is because there profs doesn't give importance to number of publications....they just publish very significant one or two papers each years in Journals or 1st tier conferences which are mostly meant for such profs and their PhDs...

Profs look at the quality of research work...just having 12 or say 20 publications wont make it for you.....theres gotta be some incremental contribution to the literature....again there are many 2nd or 3rd tier conferences these days....and in case any of these are national level then Profs simply discard such papers....with these 2nd or 3rd tier conferences, it has become possible to publish by just merging any two existing algos....or just making a better experimental evaluation....hence one cant just compare the number of publications....without having a look at the quality.

guys who made into MIT EECS, could u plz post ur profile??

@leogk Did u apply to CMU RI??
