Reporting standards for computing research

  • Machine learning: report dataset source and size, train/validation/test split, preprocessing, hyperparameters and how they were chosen, baselines, and results over several runs (mean ± standard deviation).
  • Systems and software: describe the architecture, implementation stack, test environment, and evaluation with users or benchmarks; a demo alone is not an evaluation.
  • User studies and surveys: state sampling, instrument validity and reliability, and ethics approval.
  • Security research: describe responsible disclosure for any vulnerability reported.
  • Reviews: follow PRISMA 2020 and include the search strings, databases, dates, and a flow diagram.

Figures, tables, and equations

  • Figures at 300 dpi or more, readable in grayscale; captions below (Fig. 1.).
  • Table captions above in small capitals with Roman numerals (TABLE I); no screenshots of tables.
  • Number equations in parentheses, flush right, and define every symbol.
