Descriptive research (ex-post facto) examines and describes accurately the characteristics of situations,
problems, phenomena, services, groups, or individuals
Correlational research identifies and establishes the existence of relationship, association, and
independence between two or more aspects (variables) of a situation or phenomenon
Analytical research uses existing information to explain a complex phenomenon or to perform a critical
evaluation
Experimental research focuses on the fieldwork and experiments that can control the independent
variable
Explanatory research seeks to analyze and justify the reason behind the occurrence of particular
phenomenon or association between the variables
Exploratory research addresses the areas that have required meagre attention or it is for checking the
possibility of research in the particular domain or area
Quantitative research involves measurements of quantities of characteristics that can be used as features
for the research study
Qualitative research deals with the quality or the types of the parametres considered for the research
Basic research – theoretical, reviews mainstream literature 7
Applied research seeks to solve an immediate specific problem faced by industry or society.

SELECTION

Select There are different purposes behind
undertaking a particular research.
If it is getting the
degree, there is a high possibility to
select the domain of the research guide
FIELD or the guide
may suggest selection of the particular
domain.
Otherwise, the research field can be
TOPIC selected from area of interest, identified
gap in the literature and individual skill
set.
Note:
One should avoid selection of overdone topics unless you have some
unique aspect for it. Also, a topic should not be too general and old. One
should concentrate on current social or technical affairs of interest and
keyword of that can also be used for research. The researcher should
choose a challenge suitable for his/her skill set.

LITERATURE
REVIEW
13
Literature review The literature survey is a
comprehensive study of technical and
authorised content related to research
keywords.
WHAT? Literature review provide details of
research development in a particular
field.
It enables the researcher to
WHERE? understand the approaches,
methodologies, algorithms, and
datasets used by other scientists.
HOW? It is important to identify where the
gap is: Where can I contribute to an
existing knowledgebase?
14
Literature review Backward reference search – the
researcher can choose the latest article
from a well-known journal written and
study all related references of that
WHAT? paper.
HOW?
15
Literature review Download 100–120 research papers
from published papers of IEEE/ACM/
Wiley/Elsevier/Springer/T and F or some
other good SCI Indexed Journals
Steps related to research topic and start
reading it. Use the keywords. Search
engines: Google Scholar, Citeseer, etc.
Novice Initially read only title, abstract and
researchers conclusion of each research paper and
decide whether it is related to research
topic. If yes, include it in list.
You will get to know “What has been
done in this area and what can be done
in future?”.

Literature review Read the title, Download 100–120
research papers related to research topic -
access IEEE/ACM/Wiley/Elsevier/Springer/T

Steps keywords. Search engines: Google Scholar,
Citeseer, etc.
abstract and conclusion of each research
Novice paper . You will get to know “What has been
researchers done in this area and what can be done in
future?”
Read in detail and start taking notes of
different parametres considered, theories
and methodologies used, conclusions
derived, etc.

RESEARCH Clear indication of the research work
which should not be the recurrence of
the same research.
An outcome which has be initialized
Objectives while mentioning the research objective.
Objectives should be provided
pointwise (three to six points).
Define outcomes which should show
Hypotheses an impact of the proposed research
work.
19
RESEARCH Reporting problem with the
tentative solution is a research
hypothesis.
The hypothesis is based on insufficient
Objectives evidence.
The hypothesis can prove to be true or
false.
Hypotheses
Note:
The exhaustive examination of all possible cases is
required to prove the hypothesis. If the outcome
does not support the null hypothesis, we conclude
with an alternate hypothesis.

RESEARCH Variables/parametres and research design
– variables can be identified during
literature survey; they may vary depending
on the research hypothesis.
Variables
Variables can be either dependent or
independent. A factor varied or introduced
by an experimentalist is said to be an
Design experimental factor or independent
variable. Factors changed by the impact of
an independent variable are called
dependent variables.

Outcomes
If the topic is totally new then the
researcher cannot compare his/her results
with existing ones
the hypothesis should be tested with
Research multiple approaches and results can be
findings compared.
If other scientists worked on methodologies
or on the topic
Discussion it is important to compare the results
with the existing state of the art in the
literature (consider parametres, dataset,
etc.).
Results should be represented in the visual
format using tables, figures and or graphs,
coupled with statements.
