Identified Limitations

Not a Research Paper
This document is a compilation of lecture notes and does not present original research with new findings, thus traditional weaknesses and limitations of a scientific paper (e.g., methodology, sample size, control groups) are not applicable.

Rating Explanation

This document is a set of lecture notes for a university course and not a scientific paper presenting original experimental research or novel findings, hence a rating of 1 as per instructions for non-scientific papers.
