Use when reasoning about how INTERSPEECH review actually works — area-based assignment inside ISCA's scientific program, multi-reviewer scoring and meta-review on CMT, what the rebuttal can and cannot move, oral/poster allocation, ISCA best student paper selection, and reading a decision letter for next-cycle strategy.

Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# INTERSPEECH Review Process Interspeech reviews several thousand submissions a year through an area-structured technical program committee, on a compressed spring schedule, with a single decision date. Understanding the machine explains both the review you got and the leverage you have. Mechanics are re-tuned annually by that year's Technical Program Chairs — the 2026 shape below is a snapshot, not a constitution. ## The pipeline, 2026 shape | Stage | 2026 anchor | Author-visible? | |---|---|---| | Submission + update window | 25 Feb / update to 4 Mar | yes | | Area chairs assign reviewers within the chosen scientific area | Mar–Apr | no | | Independent reviews written (typically 3+) | Apr | at release | | Author rebuttal window | reported 24 Apr – 1 May (待核实) | yes | | Meta-review / area consolidation | May | in decision | | TPC acceptance meeting; program packing (oral vs poster) | May | no | | Notification | 5 Jun | yes | | Camera-ready | 19 Jun | yes | The **area** is the unit of everything: your reviewers, your meta-reviewer, and your competition for slots all come from the scientific area you selected at submission. That is why area choice is a strategy decision, not a form

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill interspeech-review-process --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.
