🔊 Release Note (2025-08-14): AAAI26, mandatory sign-in, pdf page limit and more

[root]

Dear CSPaper Review Users,

We’re excited to announce several important updates and improvements to CSPaper Review!

Major Updates

• AAAI 2026 Main Track Review Enabled
  Reviews for AAAI 2026 main track are now supported. We’ve also benchmarked the performance: the Mean Absolute Error (MAE) on the overall rating is 0.16.

• Updated PDF Page Limit: 20 Pages
  Previously, only the first 15 pages were reviewed automatically, which led to quality issues. Going forward, please ensure that all content intended for review fits within 20 pages before submission.

• Mandatory Sign-In for Submitting Reviews
  To ensure backend stability and enable secure review deletion upon request, sign-in is now required before submitting a review.

Minor Enhancements

• Improved PDF review stability through several bug fixes.
• Conference/track list is now sorted by year → conference → track, for better navigation.
• Adjusted scoring: “missing related work” is now downweighted when calculating the final score. So don’t be surprised if missing references are flagged but the overall score remains positive.
• Introduced an elastic page limit factor to slightly relax strict template page limit violations, when appropriate.

Thank you for using CSPaper Review.
Happy reviewing!

— The CSPaper Team
