What it does

Iccv Topic Selection is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when deciding whether a computer-vision project should target ICCV, weighing the biennial odd-year cadence and its two-year option cost, what the Marr Prize lineage says about ICCV taste, honest odds at 24% acceptance, and when to hold work for CVPR, ECCV, WACV, or a journal instead of forcing the March deadline.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Computer vision. The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. | 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Deciding whether a computer-vision project should target ICCV
  • Weighing the biennial odd-year cadence and its two-year option cost
  • What the Marr Prize lineage says about ICCV taste
  • Honest odds at 24% acceptance

Example prompts

  • “/iccv-topic-selection”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Iccv Topic Selection loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 85 tokens; SKILL.md has 748 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~85
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Use when deciding whether a computer-vision project should target ICCV, weighing the biennial odd-year cadence and its two-year option cost, what the Marr Prize lineage says about ICCV taste, honest odds at 24% acceptance, and when to hold work for CVPR, ECCV, WACV, or a journal instead of forcing the March deadline.

ICCV Topic Selection

ICCV happens every other year. That single fact reorganizes the whole decision: choosing ICCV is not "which top vision venue" but "is this project ready for a deadline that will not come again for twenty-four months." In the 2025 cycle (Honolulu, the most recent completed edition, checked 2026-07-08), 11,239 valid submissions competed for 2,699 acceptances — 24%. The next intake is ICCV 2027 (Hong Kong, October 2027, CFP not yet posted at check time).

Decide the calendar before the venue

CVPR, ICCV, and ECCV share reviewer culture, format, and prestige tier. What they do not share is timing. In an odd year, the vision calendar offers a November deadline (next CVPR) and a March deadline (ICCV); in an even year the March-ish slot belongs to ECCV. So the real question is never "ICCV or CVPR" in the abstract — it is:

text
When does your evidence mature?
├── Strong by late winter of an ODD year  → ICCV (early-March deadline, 2025 anchor)
├── Strong by autumn of any year          → CVPR (November deadline)
├── Strong by late winter of an EVEN year → ECCV (spring deadline)
├── Strong but application-first          → WACV (CVF, applications-friendly)
├── Needs >8 pages or archival depth      → TPAMI / IJCV
└── One study short of the flagship bar   → workshop at any of the three,
                                            then the next big deadline

Submitting weak-but-early to ICCV because "the next one is two years away" is the classic error this skill exists to block: a rejection costs you the cycle and burns first-impression goodwill in reviewer pools that overlap heavily across all three siblings.

What ICCV has historically crowned

The Marr Prize record is a usable taste signal because it spans the field's eras: SIFT-era local features (Lowe's scale-invariant feature paper is ICCV 1999), instance segmentation (Mask R-CNN, Marr Prize 2017), backbone architecture (Swin Transformer, Marr Prize 2021), controllable generation (ControlNet, Marr Prize 2023), and text-conditioned physical construction (BrickGPT, Marr Prize 2025). The through-line is not a subfield — it is a reusable visual capability that other groups adopt within one cycle. Ask of your project: could a stranger build on this by the time the next ICCV arrives?

Fit interrogation

Run these five questions before committing a team to the March deadline. Two "no" answers mean route elsewhere or wait.

QuestionPassing answer looks likeFailing answer looks like
Is the claim about seeing?A mechanism for pixels, geometry, video, or visual groundingVision is only the benchmark suite for a generic ML idea
Does it survive current baselines?Within reach of leaderboard SOTA with your actual computeWins only against pre-foundation-model baselines
Is there a two-year half-life?The capability will still matter at the next ICCVA patch on a model family that will be obsolete by autumn
Can reviewers falsify it?Ablations isolate the mechanism; failure cases shownOne entangled system where nothing can be turned off
Can the team pay the duty tax?Coauthors can absorb reviewer assignments (every author reviews at ICCV — 2025 rule)Nobody has review bandwidth in the post-deadline months

Contribution types and their ICCV posture

  • New method or architecture — the default ICCV genre. Needs a nameable delta against the three nearest papers plus transplant evidence (your module inside a baseline).
  • Dataset or benchmark — viable, but the paper must demonstrate what the field can now study, not report a larger row count; release logistics start at acceptance, not at camera-ready panic.
  • Analysis / measurement paper — ICCV audiences reward careful negative or diagnostic results more than folklore suggests, but only with breadth: one model family analyzed is a workshop paper.
  • Vision-language / generative work — the largest and most crowded lane after
    1. Differentiation must be mechanistic; "we fine-tuned a VLM and it improved" is a domain-venue paper.
  • Theory — route to NeurIPS/ICML unless the theorem predicts something an ICCV reviewer can watch happen in a table or a video.

The option-cost calculation

Because the venue is biennial, an ICCV decision is really a portfolio decision. Write it down explicitly:

text
option-cost worksheet (fill before committing)
  target:            ICCV 2027, CFP 待核实 — deadline unknown until posted
  evidence gap:      <experiments missing today>
  gap closes by:     <month/year, honest>
  if later than ~Feb 2027:
      plan A becomes CVPR 2027-cycle (Nov deadline) or ECCV 2028
  cost of waiting:   <who else is racing this idea; arXiv velocity in the area>
  cost of rushing:   burned cycle + overlapping reviewer pools remember drafts

If the "gap closes by" line is within six weeks of the deadline, plan for the supplement and rebuttal to carry zero new evidence — ICCV's 2025 cycle put paper and supplementary material on the same day (a deliberate 2025 change), so there is no trailing week to finish experiments in.

Odds, stated plainly

24% acceptance means three of four reviewed submissions exited with a rejection in 2025. Orals were reported at roughly half a percent of submissions and Highlights at 263 papers — treat both as reported figures. The rational posture: target ICCV when the work genuinely benefits from the international flagship stage and its two-year echo; otherwise the annual CVPR intake prices the same prestige with a shorter retry loop.

Cycle-check before advising

  • ICCV 2027 scope, topic areas, and CFP — none published at check time (待核实); the 2025 CFP is the newest scope anchor.
  • Whether the every-author-reviews rule and the 25-submission-per-author cap persist into 2027.
  • Sibling deadlines for the routing decision (next CVPR and ECCV CFPs).
