Use when reasoning about the ICDM (IEEE International Conference on Data Mining) review machinery - the triple-blind mechanics, the Accept / Accept-as-Short / Reject outcome space, the mixed data-mining reviewer pool, PC Co-Chair decision-making, the traditional no-rebuttal posture, and how to read an ICDM decision packet.

Understand how ICDM decisions are actually made, so you can write for the process and read the
outcome correctly. ICDM's Research Track runs a **triple-blind** review, has a distinctive
**short-paper** outcome, and traditionally offers **no author rebuttal** — a very different shape
from OpenReview venues with public discussion.

## Triple-blind mechanics

- Author identities and referee identities are both concealed. Since 2011, referee names are
  hidden even from each other during discussion; only the **PC Co-Chairs** know who is who.
