What ICML reviewers will look for
ICML 2026 reviewers summarize the paper without critique, write a substantiated Strengths and Weaknesses assessment covering soundness, presentation, significance and originality (each also scored 1–4, with fair/poor ratings justified), ask 3–5 numbered key questions that say how each answer would change the score, check limitations, and give a 1–6 overall recommendation (3 and 4 sparingly) plus confidence.

LLM policy for reviewers
ICML 2026 assigns each reviewer Policy A (no LLMs) or Policy B (LLMs may help understand the paper and polish wording, but may not identify strengths/weaknesses or write the review). Violations can get the reviewer's own papers desk-rejected.
