SRMV2 provides an automatic reviewer assignment process. There are two entry points:

(for the correct links, replace "event" by your event.)

https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/event/showSuggestionsForPaperAssignment and https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/event/showSuggestionsForPaperAssignmentBySubmission

At first the system shows a list of all IPC members with along with every review type which is currently assigned to the conference.

Show Suggestion for IPC without data

Requirements and steps:

  1. There are IPC members with status "accepted" (https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Ipc/event/manageIPC). For clarity, pending or rejected IPC members should be removed.
  2. Different reviewer types exist (usually Primary, Secondary, Tertiary).
  3. IPCuploader and bidding are completed.
  4. SARA score calculation should be started.

As chair you now have the possibility to either use the built-in solution or to use an external script for creating assignments. This script is owned and maintained by Prof. M. Wimmer. (https://gitlab.com/salzrat/eg-sig-sort)

Built-in

This suggestion can be edited, exported (then edited offline, if comfortable), and imported again.

When you press create New Suggestion you set the preferences for the new matching. If you are interested how the matching is created: calculate Suggestion

Modify the matching

If you aren't satisfied with the current matching it is possible to start again to get a better matching (there is a random shuffle in the matching) or to adjust the matching of the system. Therefore click on the paper you want to fix. You will get to the following page:

Edit Suggestion

There you can customize who will be assigned as which review type. (One person can't be in multiple review types in one paper!) There you can access the submission, see every reviewtype, who is currently assigned in this review type, for every Reviewtype a checkbox, the internal generated rating, the bidding of the person, his global expertise list. And how much the person has expertise matching with the paper.


External Script

  • Initialize Ratings InitializeRatings.png
    Initializes Rating and RatingOrg for Sort. For this purpose, the score (=affinity score, from the IPCuploader) is combined with the bidding.
    For “want review” the score is multiplied with 10, and for “could review” with 5.
  • IPC members can help with sorting. Use "Manage Sorter" to invite them and assign them to submissions.

The goal is to set the ratings so that the order determined by the ratings corresponds to the preferences of a submission for IPC members.

Last step (for both alternatives)

when everything is set: "take Suggestion Live": the assignments are now active, IPC member should be informed.

Use this button only once.
There is no way to change active assignments through this menu.
