Please don't link to google scholar. Link to the conference websites directly if you can, or otherwise to DBLP [1].<p>Most of these conferences are open access and make a good effort to get the papers they publish to the widest audience possible. Google scholar typically hot-links the PDFs, and keeps them invisible link-wise. This is slowly eroding the conference's "web reputation" (based on links primarily) and keeps funneling users to the big corps, something we really don't need these days ;)<p>[1] <a href="https://dblp.uni-trier.de/" rel="nofollow">https://dblp.uni-trier.de/</a>
Thank you for doing this!<p>Quick suggestion:<p>Please consider including best paper awards from NeurIPS (e.g., <a href="https://nips.cc/Conferences/2017/Awards" rel="nofollow">https://nips.cc/Conferences/2017/Awards</a>).
While not as "top tier" as siggraph, HPG (the merger/successor of Graphics Hardware and the Ray Tracing Symposium) has a reasonable best paper list: <a href="https://www.highperformancegraphics.org/2019/best-paper/" rel="nofollow">https://www.highperformancegraphics.org/2019/best-paper/</a><p>As a note, the first paper listed when it's 1. 2. 3. was the "best" paper (the others were runners up).
This list is a reminder that the work done by researchers and the work done in industry have profoundly little overlap, outside of a handful of high-profile examples.<p>If the giants would like to do us all a massive favour: pay the IEEE and ACM for worldwide, perpetual, ongoing rights to their libraries. Because right now that vast ocean of literature is basically invisible to practitioners.
The by-instituion ranking is particularly interesting: <a href="https://jeffhuang.com/best_paper_awards.html#institutions" rel="nofollow">https://jeffhuang.com/best_paper_awards.html#institutions</a><p>Some of those are obvious if you've been in the field a while, but I think it's notable that big names like Intel, Harvard and NASA are so lowly ranked when compared to others on the list.<p>Also Notable, none of the big names in the field won any of these: Jeff Dean, Geoff Hinton, Yann Lecun, Andrew Ng, Yoshua Bengio, Jurgen Schmidhuber etc...
Great list, with a lot of work put in there! In particular, the breakdown by institutions is very interesting -- <a href="https://jeffhuang.com/best_paper_awards.html#institutions" rel="nofollow">https://jeffhuang.com/best_paper_awards.html#institutions</a><p>Related, the most cited CS papers (although very dated at this point ...):<p><a href="http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/stats/articles" rel="nofollow">http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/stats/articles</a>
CS Education venues never show up on these lists. In some cases, it's intentional and in others it's accidental. Either way, I wonder if we'll ever see the same respect as our peers in CS. It's a weird spot to be in.
doesn't look too good for german institutions (or europe in general) :( I thought it we are just not really that important in machine learning, but other disciplines are similiar. Any physicist here? Are german institutions more visible in physics? They always appear to have quite big physics faculties.
I'm surprised this list does not include David Lowe seminal paper on SIFT: "Distinctive Image Features from Scale - Invariant Key points"
