Kdd Topic Selection is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when deciding whether a project belongs at KDD and in which track — Research vs Applied Data Science vs Datasets and Benchmarks vs AI for Sciences — or whether it routes to ICDM, SDM, WSDM, CIKM, WWW, VLDB, or an ML flagship. Covers the deployment-evidence fork, data-regime framing, and SIGKDD fit signals before writing.
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 DevOps & Cloud. 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.
2 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

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

Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

Kdd Topic Selection loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 764 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

.claude/skills/kdd-topic-selection/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).Use this before any writing. KDD routing is a two-stage decision — first whether the work is KDD-shaped at all, then which track — and the second stage is the one teams get wrong, because the Research and ADS tracks want different papers written about the same system. A submission may enter exactly one of them per cycle.
KDD rewards contributions where the data regime is the protagonist: scale, drift, heterogeneity, noise, sparsity, graph structure, streams, or the friction of real deployment. Signals:
Anti-signals: novelty lives entirely in architecture or loss design (ML flagships); the contribution is query processing or storage (VLDB/SIGMOD); the core is retrieval ranking on web corpora (SIGIR/WSDM/WWW may fit better, though overlap is real).
The decisive question: what is the strongest evidence you can honestly produce?
| Your strongest honest evidence | Track | The bar you must clear |
|---|---|---|
| New mechanism + ablations + scale curves on (mostly) public data | Research | Delta over the mining lineage, mechanism isolated |
| A system running in production with measurable post-launch outcomes | ADS | Quantified post-launch performance — its absence is a desk reject (2026 CFP); lessons learned expected |
| A dataset/benchmark others will build on, with licenses and baselines | Datasets & Benchmarks | Documentation, provenance, maintenance story |
| Mining/ML advancing a natural-science question | AI for Sciences | Scientific validity alongside method quality |
| A provocative direction without full evidence | Blue Sky Ideas | Argument quality; check the track's own CFP |
Two frequent mis-forks:
A team built a fraud-detection model, ran it in shadow mode for two months, and has a
new graph-sampling trick inside it. Three honest papers hide here: (a) the sampling
trick with ablations and public-graph scale curves → Research; (b) after full
launch and a measured A/B window → ADS; (c) the labeled transaction graph, if
releasable → Datasets & Benchmarks. The wrong move is one paper claiming all
three, thinly. Pick the paper whose evidence exists this cycle — the dual-cycle
calendar (kdd-workflow) makes "ADS next cycle, after the measurement window" a
concrete plan rather than a consolation.
Route AWAY from KDD when:
- contribution = new learning objective/architecture, data regime incidental
-> NeurIPS / ICML / ICLR
- contribution = mining method, but community/deadline fit favors a sibling
-> ICDM or SDM (same shape, different scale of venue)
- contribution = web/user-behavior/retrieval centric
-> WWW / WSDM / SIGIR / RecSys
- contribution = data management, indexing, query execution
-> VLDB / SIGMOD
- contribution = domain science outcome, method standard
-> domain journal, or KDD's AI-for-Sciences track if the mining is realIf the paper misses at KDD, the reviews tell you which axis failed
(kdd-review-process); a mechanism-novelty objection with solid deployment evidence
often means the right venue was the ADS track all along — a track switch, not a
venue switch.
| Signal in the project | KDD reading |
|---|---|
| Method's win grows with data size or graph density | Core Research fit — scale is the venue's home turf |
| Production system + measurable online outcomes | ADS fit, and only ADS once post-launch numbers exist |
| Contribution is a labeled corpus or benchmark harness | Datasets & Benchmarks, not a Research paper padded with baselines |
| Novel loss/architecture, benchmarks incidental | ML flagship shape; expect "delta over lineage?" pushback at KDD |
| Discovery claim in a natural-science domain | AI for Sciences, or a domain venue if the mining is off-the-shelf |
| Query/index/storage performance is the headline | VLDB/SIGMOD shape |
| The paper's tables would not change if the data were 100x smaller | The scale story is decorative — fix that before routing anywhere |
Because KDD runs two cycles, track choice is also schedule choice: a Research paper
can target the nearest cycle, while the ADS version of the same project may need to
wait for its measurement window to close (kdd-workflow). When co-authors disagree
on track, the tiebreaker question is: which paper's gate evidence exists today?
Projected evidence loses to existing evidence at this venue every time — the ADS
desk-check makes that literal.
