What it does

Icdm Experiments is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when designing or auditing the empirical evaluation for an ICDM (IEEE International Conference on Data Mining) paper - mining-task definition, strong and fairly-tuned baselines, ablations that isolate the named mechanism, scalability curves that test scale claims, and discovery-validity checks that separate real findings from evaluation artifacts.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

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

  • Strong and fairly-tuned baselines
  • Ablations that isolate the named mechanism
  • Scalability curves that test scale claims

Example prompts

  • “/icdm-experiments”

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

Icdm Experiments loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 495 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~93
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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.

description
Use when designing or auditing the empirical evaluation for an ICDM (IEEE International Conference on Data Mining) paper - mining-task definition, strong and fairly-tuned baselines, ablations that isolate the named mechanism, scalability curves that test scale claims, and discovery-validity checks that separate real findings from evaluation artifacts.

ICDM Experiments

Design the evaluation an ICDM reviewer will trust: a defined mining task, baselines tuned as carefully as your method, ablations that isolate the mechanism, a measured scale story, and a discovery-validity argument. ICDM's data-centric reviewers punish leaderboard-only wins and un-checkable discovery claims, and the whole evaluation must fit inside the 10-page all-inclusive cap.

Define the mining task before the metric

  • State the task operationally: inputs, outputs, and what a correct answer is. "Anomaly detection" is a genre; "rank edges by anomalousness in a one-pass stream, evaluated against injected ground truth" is a task.
  • Fix the evaluation protocol — splits, negatives, thresholds, ranking cutoffs — before running anything, and describe it precisely enough to reproduce inside the page cap.

The four evidence axes

AxisQuestion it answersTypical evidence
QualityIs the mining result good on the task?Ranking/accuracy vs baselines with variance
ScaleDoes the scale claim hold?Latency/memory curves across data sizes
MechanismIs the named mechanism the reason?Ablations toggling exactly that component
ValidityIs the finding real, not an artifact?Controlled injections, known-truth checks

A strong ICDM paper touches all four; missing "mechanism" or "validity" is the usual reason a methodologically fine paper reads as thin.

Baselines and tuning symmetry

  • Compare against current strong baselines, and tune them with the same budget you gave your method; an under-tuned baseline is the fastest way to lose reviewer trust.
  • Include the obvious simple baseline. If a cheap method nearly matches you, say so and argue the regime where your mechanism pays off.
  • Report every number with variance over seeded runs; a single-run table invites the "is this noise?" review.

Ablations that isolate the mechanism

The mechanism-attached novelty of icdm-writing-style must be demonstrated, not asserted.

text
Mechanism: single-pass isolation sketch with m random partitions.
Ablation grid:
  - remove the sketch, keep full storage      -> isolates the streaming contribution
  - vary m (partition count)                  -> maps the accuracy/memory knob
  - swap the hash family                       -> tests sensitivity to the mechanism's core
  - replace isolation score with density score -> isolates the isolation principle
Each row answers "was THIS the reason it worked?"

Test the scale claim, do not assert it

  • If you claim scalability, plot behavior across at least an order of magnitude of data size, and report the cost model (linear, sub-linear memory, amortized constant update).
  • Separate wall-clock from asymptotic claims; hardware-dependent speedups need the hardware stated and, ideally, an operation count that is not hardware-dependent.

Discovery validity: the ICDM instinct

  • Where truth is unknown, build a setting where it is: injected anomalies, planted patterns, synthetic graphs with known structure — so you can show the method recovers known signal.
  • Guard against leakage: temporal tasks need time-respecting splits; graph tasks need to avoid train/test edge overlap. State the guard explicitly.
  • Do not overclaim when differences are within variance; an honest "matches at lower cost" is stronger here than a fragile "outperforms."

Vignette: an ablation that saved the claim

A team reports strong stream-anomaly numbers but reviewers cannot tell whether the sketch or the underlying isolation criterion did the work. Adding two ablation rows — full-storage isolation (isolating the streaming contribution) and a density-score swap (isolating the isolation principle) — showed the sketch preserved batch quality while the isolation principle drove detection. The claim survived because the mechanism was shown, not stated, and both rows fit in the appendix inside the 10-page cap.
