% If running Latex 2e (either in main mode, or 2.09 compatibility
% mode), use the alternate style file nips02e.sty instead.

% You need to include the command
%             \documentstyle[nips02,times]{article} 
% as the first line in your document.  Or, if you do not have Times
% Roman font available, you can include the command
%             \documentstyle[nips02]{article}
% instead.
