Use when designing or auditing the empirical evaluation for an ICDM (IEEE International Conference on Data Mining) paper - mining-task definition, strong and fairly-tuned baselines, ablations that isolate the named mechanism, scalability curves that test scale claims, and discovery-validity checks that separate real findings from evaluation artifacts.

# ICDM Experiments

Design the evaluation an ICDM reviewer will trust: a defined mining task, baselines tuned as
carefully as your method, ablations that isolate the mechanism, a measured scale story, and a
discovery-validity argument. ICDM's data-centric reviewers punish leaderboard-only wins and
un-checkable discovery claims, and the whole evaluation must fit inside the 10-page
all-inclusive cap.

## Define the mining task before the metric

- State the task operationally: inputs, outputs, and what a correct answer is. "Anomaly
  detection" is a genre; "rank edges by anomalousness in a one-pass stream, evaluated against
  injected ground truth" is a task.
- Fix the evaluation protocol — splits, negatives, thresholds, ranking cutoffs — before
