Assignment
Builds a topic taxonomy for this venue with an LLM, over the submissions and each reviewer's evidence publications, places every paper in it, and scores a pair by how close the paper's topics are to the reviewer's. Every match can be read: the topics are named and the reviewer's closest publications are listed.
No LLM is configured on this server at the moment: the taxonomy would be built by clustering instead, with unnamed topics.
Turns each reviewer's publication history, with the age of every paper, into a few expertise prototypes and scores a submission by its closest prototypes. It needs only the reviewers' publications, calls no LLM, and runs entirely on this server.
Bring the scores you already have (from bids, TPMS or a previous cycle) and let the site solve the assignment only.
CSV or JSON rows with sub_id, rev_id, score; higher is better.
Template
- Taxonomy matching uses an external LLM. This server has no LLM configured at the moment, so the taxonomy is built by clustering here and nothing is sent out.
- Expertise Prototype matching and imported scores use no LLM: everything is computed on this server and nothing leaves it.
- Recruitment uses the LLM only to name topics, and only if you leave that option ticked on the Initial pool and Diagnose & recruit pages: the titles and abstracts of your submissions are then sent, once per paper. Nothing about reviewers is sent.
- We do not inspect your data and do not keep it. A venue is visible to your account only (the site gives its administrators no way to open one), and nothing in it is used for anything but your own results.
- Everything is deleted after 30 days. A venue is removed automatically 30 days after it was created, with all that was uploaded to it and computed for it. Export what you need before then; you can also delete a venue yourself at any time.
Assignment options — shared by every route; solve re-uses the current score source
Insufficient coverage
Fix by diagnosing and recruiting for them, relaxing the options, or adjusting locks. Weak = mean assigned match below 40.
