This LaTeX template is based on Simon Peyton Jones' talk How to Write a Great Research Paper. The whole talk should be watched, as it makes for great viewing and is informative,
The LaTeX template used here is taken directly from the ACL template. The original template, with all instructions, is also available on this repository, as acl2017.*. The "inspired" template can be viewed at Paper_Template.pdf.
My goal in providing this template is to make it easier to begin the writing process. This is accomplished by
- Providing a number of general pointers about how to structure a research paper
- Providing a non-blank canvas, to make the initial state of the paper less intimidating
