What it does

Siggraph Experiments is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when designing or auditing the evaluation of a SIGGRAPH / TOG paper, covering head-to-head comparisons against the strongest prior method, ablations, performance/timing reporting with hardware, image/geometry quality metrics, perceptual and user studies, and matching the evidence to the graphics claim shape.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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

  • Covering head-to-head comparisons against the strongest prior method
  • Performance/timing reporting with hardware
  • Image/geometry quality metrics

Example prompts

  • “/siggraph-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

Siggraph Experiments loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 84 tokens; SKILL.md has 587 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~84
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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 evaluation of a SIGGRAPH / TOG paper, covering head-to-head comparisons against the strongest prior method, ablations, performance/timing reporting with hardware, image/geometry quality metrics, perceptual and user studies, and matching the evidence to the graphics claim shape.

SIGGRAPH Experiments

SIGGRAPH acceptance turns on evidence proportional to a graphics claim: a technique that claims to be faster must be timed against a real baseline on stated hardware; one that claims higher quality must be compared, quantitatively and visually, against the strongest prior method. This skill matches evaluation to claim shape and pre-empts the domain-expert reviewer's first objections. Anchor policy to resources/official-source-map.md.

Match evidence to the claim

Claim shapeEvidence the reviewer expectsCommon failure
"Higher quality"Head-to-head vs SOTA with a metric (PSNR/SSIM/LPIPS/FLIP; Hausdorff/normal error for geometry) + side-by-side visuals + videoOnly one's own results shown; no baseline
"Faster / real-time"Wall-clock vs baseline at equal quality, with GPU/CPU, driver, resolutionTiming at unequal quality; no hardware stated
"More general / robust"Results across a broad, non-cherry-picked scene set incl. hard casesWorks only on the paper's three easy inputs
"New capability"Demonstrations prior methods provably cannot produceCapability asserted, not shown against a method that fails
"Perceptually better"A user/perceptual study with enough participants and a valid protocol"Looks better" with no study

The comparison is the evaluation

In graphics, the head-to-head comparison against the strongest prior method is not optional:

  • Reproduce baselines faithfully. Use authors' code and recommended settings; if you must reimplement, say so and match their reported numbers where possible. A weakened baseline is the objection that sinks the paper.
  • Equalize conditions. Same scene, viewpoint, lighting, sample/time budget. When you give yourself or the baseline an advantage, disclose it.
  • Show the comparison both ways — a metric table and a visual side-by-side (still + video); numbers and pixels persuade different reviewers.
  • Include the cases where you lose. Bounding your method's regime is credibility, not weakness.

Metrics, honestly

  • Images: PSNR/SSIM for fidelity, LPIPS/FLIP for perceptual difference; state the reference and the region of interest. No single metric is sufficient — report several and show the images.
  • Geometry: Hausdorff / mean surface distance, normal/curvature error, element quality; state the alignment and units.
  • Simulation/animation: energy/momentum behavior, stability under time-step, constraint residuals; a plot over time, not a single frame.
  • Report variance where results are stochastic (multiple seeds/runs), and never compare at unequal sample counts or resolutions without saying so.

Performance and timing are first-class

Timings are claims a reviewer will check:

  • Report hardware (GPU/CPU model, memory, driver), resolution/scene size, and settings for every timing.
  • Break down where time goes (preprocess vs per-frame vs per-sample) so the claim is auditable.
  • Compare speed at matched quality — "faster" at lower quality is not faster.

Perceptual and user studies

When the claim is about perceived quality or usability:

  • Pre-register the protocol; report participant count, task, stimuli, and the statistic (with a correction for multiple comparisons where relevant).
  • Use a valid design (two-alternative forced choice, ranking, or a calibrated scale); report effect size and confidence intervals, not just significance.
  • Put stimuli and raw responses in the supplemental for reproducibility.

Ablations isolate the contribution

  • Turn off each component in turn and show the quality/speed cost — this proves the contribution is the part you claim, not an incidental engineering detail.
  • For learning-based methods, ablate architecture, loss terms, and data; run a contamination check so test scenes are not in training.
  • Key ablation rows go in the body; the full grid goes to the supplemental (see siggraph-supplementary).

Anti-patterns

  • No comparison to the obvious strongest baseline.
  • Timings with no hardware, or "faster" at unequal quality.
  • A single cherry-picked scene standing in for generality.
  • One metric asserted as quality with no images shown.
  • A perceptual claim with no study, or a study with too few participants to support it.

Output format

[Claim -> evidence] each claim matched to comparison/metric/timing/study? yes/no
[Baselines] strongest prior method compared, faithfully, at equal conditions? yes/no
