iccv-topic-selection
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.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# 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 archiva

What does the iccv-topic-selection skill do?
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.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill iccv-topic-selection --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
