Specialized in neural network architectures, system diagrams, flowcharts, biological pathways, and complex scientific visualizations.
2 -
thedixitjain Skill Sigcomm SupplementaryUse when organizing the material around an ACM SIGCOMM paper — deciding what lives in the 12-page body versus references versus optional appendices, keeping the main paper self-contained, anticipating the shepherd's appendix-necessity approval, and placing extended measurements and proofs outside the cap without hiding load-bearing content.
2 -
thedixitjain Skill Siggraph Camera ReadyUse when preparing the final version of a conditionally accepted SIGGRAPH / SIGGRAPH Asia Technical Paper for publication in ACM Transactions on Graphics, covering the second-stage committee verification, TOG journal metadata and DOI, ACM rights and CCS concepts, final results video and representative image, and permanent code/data links.
2 -
thedixitjain Skill Sigmod Review ProcessUse when reasoning about how a SIGMOD research paper moves through a PACMMOD round, covering double-anonymous CMT reviewing, the author feedback phase, accept/reject/revision verdicts, the one-month revision window, the 12-month rejection embargo, and how database PC members actually weigh evidence.
2 -
thedixitjain Skill Tacas ReproducibilityUse when strengthening TACAS (ETAPS) reproducibility, covering the clean evaluation-VM packaging that the artifact process assumes, pinned dependencies and offline execution, a claim-to-script mapping so every benchmark number regenerates, honest degrees of reproducibility, consistency between the paper and the artifact, and the category difference between a mandatory tool-paper artifact and a voluntary research-paper artifact.
2 -
thedixitjain Skill Tacas Topic SelectionUse when deciding whether a formal-methods / verification project belongs at TACAS (ETAPS) or a sibling like CAV, VMCAI, FMCAD, SPIN, or a journal, AND — distinctively — which of TACAS's four categories (research, case-study, regular tool, tool-demonstration) it fits, plus whether the work is a SV-COMP competition contribution rather than a paper.
2 -
thedixitjain Skill The Lancet PsychiatryUse when targeting The Lancet Psychiatry or deciding whether a psychiatry or mental-health study fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the clinical-trial, population, and policy evidence bar, reporting-guideline and registration requirements, Lancet specialty house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics. Venue-fit aid only, not clinical advice.
2 -
thedixitjain Skill World Economic PapersUse when targeting 《世界经济文汇》(World Economic Papers — 复旦大学经济学院主办的双月刊, 国内较早实行双向匿名审稿的经济学刊) or deciding whether an international-economics/open-economy manuscript fits this venue.

2 -
thedixitjain Skill Arpsych Literature SynthesisUse when systematically gathering, reading, and structuring the literature for an Annual Review of Psychology (ARPsych) review so coverage is comprehensive and current. Builds the evidence base; it does not design the analytical spine (arpsych-organizing-framework) or judge balance (arpsych-comprehensiveness-and-balance).
2 -
thedixitjain Skill Arpsych Organizing FrameworkUse when imposing an analytical structure or taxonomy on a psychology literature for an Annual Review of Psychology (ARPsych) review — the "spine" that turns a reading list into an argument about the field. Designs the framework; it does not gather the literature (arpsych-literature-synthesis) or judge coverage and balance (arpsych-comprehensiveness-and-balance).
2 -
thedixitjain Skill Hlr Footnotes And Cite CheckUse when building and stress-testing the heavy footnote apparatus of a Harvard Law Review (HLR) piece so it survives the student-editor cite-check / source-pull. Builds and audits the apparatus for pull-readiness; it does not set Bluebook form per citation (hlr-sources-and-bluebook) or manage the editor relationship (hlr-student-editor-review).
2 -
thedixitjain Skill Sigcomm Topic SelectionUse when deciding whether a project is a strong ACM SIGCOMM fit, choosing the research versus experience track, identifying the networking-stack mechanism at the core of the contribution, and routing misfits to NSDI, MobiCom, CoNEXT, IMC, SIGMETRICS, or a systems venue before writing begins.
2 -
thedixitjain Skill Arecon Proposal FramingUse when getting a review topic in front of the Annual Review of Economics (ARE) Editorial Committee or shaping an accepted invitation — the commissioned/invited intake route, how to suggest a topic, and what a Committee-ready pitch contains. Frames the commission; it does not gather the literature (arecon-literature-synthesis) or run the delivery preflight (arecon-submission).

thedixitjain Skill Ahr Citation And StyleUse when formatting citations and notes for an American Historical Review (AHR) manuscript. The AHR follows the Chicago Manual of Style with all references in footnotes/endnotes — no bibliography or works-cited list and no in-text parenthetical citation. Gets the note apparatus right; it does not write the prose or argument.
2 -
thedixitjain Skill Aistats Review ProcessUse when explaining or planning around AISTATS peer review, OpenReview review release, author-reviewer discussion, reviewer volunteer expectations, reviewer confidentiality, decision criteria, meta-review dynamics, the statistician-heavy reviewer pool, and PMLR proceedings outcomes.
2 -
thedixitjain Skill Amj Theory DevelopmentUse when the theoretical argument and hypotheses are the bottleneck for an Academy of Management Journal (AMJ) manuscript — building a mechanism and deriving testable hypotheses a priori.
