- ▌ Wsdm Review Process · brycewang-stanfordUse when reasoning about how WSDM reviews and decides papers - the hybrid single/double-blind architecture with Associate-Chair metadata visibility, at-least-three PC reviews plus senior PC assessment, the absence of a rebuttal phase, the August-to-October window, and what ~17% selectivity at a single-track venue implies.
- ▌ Aaai Author Response · brycewang-stanfordUse when drafting an AAAI author response (rebuttal) under the single short character-limited author-feedback window, the no-URL rule, no-new-results guidance, AI-generated-review handling, and the AAAI two-phase review process where Phase-2 papers receive one feedback round before SPC/AC discussion.
- ▌ Aaai Reproducibility · brycewang-stanfordUse when strengthening an AAAI paper's reproducibility checklist (placed after references), experimental traceability, seed and hyperparameter reporting, compute and cost disclosure, dataset access and licensing, code/data ZIP readiness, and the claim-to-evidence map that Phase-1 reviewers use to judge rigor across AAAI's broad AI scope.
- ▌ Aaai Topic Selection · brycewang-stanfordUse when deciding whether a project is a strong AAAI submission across its broad AI scope, should be reframed or routed to a dedicated track such as AI for Social Impact or AI Alignment, or should instead go to IJCAI, NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, AISTATS, UAI, ACL, CVPR, KDD, CHI, ICRA, or another specialist venue.
