ieee-skills overview

ieee-skills

One IEEE manuscript, all reviewer-facing checks. Generic polishing tools improve sentences; ieee-skills checks whether the engineering evidence can survive IEEE-style review.

Latest Update

2026-08-12: adopted Issue #1 and added ieee-summarize, a pre-writing skill that turns messy folders of idea notes, experiment logs, source code, AI chat exports, paper summaries, and related-work candidates into an IEEE Research Brief. The update also adds AI-like prose repair and reviewer-comment quality audits for generic, contradictory, unsupported, or template-like comments.

2026-08-02: ieee-figure-table now includes a four-panel multimodal DRL / neural-network framework diagram demo for IEEE-style learning-based control, resource allocation, robotics, edge intelligence, and power-system papers.

2026-08-01: ieee-figure-table includes a polished IEEE matplotlib house-style helper, visual-style rules, plotting API guidance, a hybrid figure workflow, and rebuilt demo figures for SNR robustness, accuracy-latency Pareto evidence, and ablation tables. The new demos use multi-panel evidence layouts, dedicated legend/summary panels, text-safe margins, and visible baselines. Hybrid figures can combine Python/R base panels with Illustrator, Inkscape, PowerPoint, Figma, or draw.io finishing while keeping an edit log.

IEEE SubmitCheck

The flagship workflow is a pre-submission evidence audit, not a generic writing pass.

Why It Exists

IEEE manuscript problems are often not only language problems. They are engineering-evidence problems.

Messy research materialsIdeas, code, AI chats, experiment logs, and literature summaries are scattered before writing starts.
Weak motivationAbstracts and introductions omit object, condition, and engineering harm.
Unsupported claimsExperiments exist, but they do not map cleanly to the stated claims.
Unconvincing baselinesComparisons use weak, old, or unfair baselines.
Hidden engineering costAccuracy improves, but latency, complexity, robustness, or deployment cost is missing.
Figure first-impression riskPlots fail after IEEE two-column scaling or captions do not state the takeaway.
AI-like prose or weak reviewsProse sounds template-like, or reviewer comments are generic, contradictory, or unsupported.
Weak revision packageReviewer responses explain instead of showing concrete changes and new evidence.

Engineering Evidence Chain

IEEE-style papers should make the technical problem, constraint, method rationale, and evidence easy to inspect.

ObjectWhat system or task?
ConditionWhat constraint or scenario?
HarmWhy does it matter?
LimitationWhere do prior methods fail?
RationaleWhy this method?
EvidenceWhich results prove it?
