-	Most of the attendants apparently understood the talk and the paper well, and a

-	skyline presented in the paper. The skyline was somewhat of a supervised element
-	-- the authors estimated initial parameters for a model from gold data and
-	trained it afterwards. They assumed that a model with parameters estimated from
-	gold data cannot be beaten by an unsupervisedly trained model. Verily, after
-	training the skyline model, its accuracy dropped very significantly. The reasons
-	of this were a point of surprise for us as well as for the paper's authors.
-	Complementary to the skyline, the authors presented a baseline which should	+	Idea :
