Wacv workflow

Skill brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills/WACV-Skills/skills/wacv-workflow

Use when planning a WACV campaign calendar across the two-round model, from track and round choice through the Round 1 submission, rebuttal, and Accept/Revise-and-Resubmit/Reject decision, into the Round 2 revision and decision, camera-ready, and the winter conference — with the branch points that a single-deadline plan misses.From its SKILL.md

WACV Workflow

Use this to run a WACV campaign end to end. The defining feature is that WACV has two rounds with a revision path between them, so the calendar is a branching tree, not a single deadline. Dates below are the reported WACV 2027 timetable read on 2026-07-09 (via search rendering — reconfirm on the live Dates page); the structure is stable, the exact dates are not.

The branching calendar

Track + round decision  ──► Round 1 paper deadline (reported Jun 26, 2026)
                              │
                              ├─ R1 reviews (reported due Jul 24) ─► optional 1-page rebuttal
                              │
                              └─ R1 decision (reported Aug 7)
                                   ├─ Accept  ──────────────► camera-ready
                                   ├─ Reject  ──────────────► re-target / rebuild
                                   └─ Revise & Resubmit ─► revise + change summary
                                                                │

Phase-by-phase

Phase	Do this	Skill
Scope	Decide WACV vs sibling, Applications vs Algorithms, and R1 vs R2	`wacv-topic-selection`
Draft	Write the first page for the chosen track and the two-round reviewer	`wacv-writing-style`
Evidence	Build matched-baseline, constraint-aware experiments with uncertainty	`wacv-experiments`, `wacv-reproducibility`
Submit R1	Audit anonymity, profiles, page cap, track field	`wacv-submission`, `wacv-supplementary`
R1 reviews	Draft the optional one-page rebuttal, AC-first	`wacv-author-response`, `wacv-review-process`
R&R lap	Execute the revision as a spec; write the change summary; sync the artifact	`wacv-author-response`, `wacv-artifact-evaluation`
Camera-ready	De-anonymize, finalize for CVF open access + IEEE Xplore	`wacv-camera-ready`
Present	Prepare the winter conference talk/poster	`wacv-camera-ready`

Branch points a single-deadline plan misses

Round choice is a scheduling decision, not just a deadline. A borderline paper belongs in Round 1 (rebuttal + Revise-and-Resubmit net); a polished one can go to Round 2. Deciding this late forfeits the safety net.
The Revise-and-Resubmit lap is the main event, not a detour. Most WACV papers pass through it; budget real engineering time for the revision between the R1 decision and the R2 deadline, because Round 2 has no rebuttal to compensate for a rushed revision.
Two OpenReview groups. Round 1 and Round 2 are distinct groups; do not assume a single submission carries over automatically — follow the current instructions for resubmitting a Revise-and-Resubmit paper.

A worked mini-plan (borderline applications paper)

T-3 wk: freeze track = Applications; target Round 1 for the R&R net
T-2 wk: matched-budget baselines re-run; uncertainty over seeds/sessions locked
T-1 wk: anonymity + profile + page-cap audit (wacv-submission)
  R1 deadline: submit
+reviews: one-page rebuttal fixes the top factual objection
  R1 = Revise & Resubmit: turn the three reviews into a change list; execute; write summary
  R2 deadline: resubmit revised paper + change summary
  R2 = Accept: camera-ready; register by the deadline; prep winter poster

Reverify each cycle

Both round deadlines, the review/decision dates, and the registration deadline.
Whether the two-round model and the three R1 outcomes still hold.
The camera-ready deadline and the winter conference dates/location (2027 dates 待核实).
