FAQPage Schema
How do I generate publishable research ideas from a broad ML direction?▼

To generate publishable research ideas from a broad ML direction, provide the research area to trigger a landscape survey that identifies gaps and outputs 8–12 ranked ideas with feasibility and novelty checks. You receive a structured Idea Report suitable for conference submissions.

What is a landscape survey for identifying research gaps in AI?▼

A landscape survey for identifying research gaps in AI systematically maps a broad research area to pinpoint unexplored problems. It generates actionable research directions and evaluates their feasibility before moving to pilot design.

How do I run a novelty check and pilot design for machine learning research?▼

To run a novelty check and pilot design for machine learning research, configure parameters like PILOT_MAX_HOURS and MAX_TOTAL_GPU_HOURS to validate 1–2 selected ideas. The skill outputs phase-wise validation plans with evaluation metrics and pilot-ready experimental setups.

Do I need Codex MCP integration to use automated academic pipeline tools?▼

Yes, you need Codex MCP integration to use this automated academic pipeline tool, as it requires this setup alongside standard research datasets to function. Configurable parameters like MAX_PILOT_IDEAS also depend on this environment to generate pilot-ready plans.

Can I configure GPU hour limits for pilot study design in research pipelines?▼

Yes, you can configure GPU hour limits for pilot study design by setting the MAX_TOTAL_GPU_HOURS and PILOT_MAX_HOURS parameters. This constrains the computational budget for validating 1–2 research ideas, ensuring pilot experiments remain resource-efficient.

What are the limitations of automated research idea generation?▼

Automated research idea generation is limited by its dependency on Codex MCP integration and standard research datasets. It focuses strictly on ML/AI domains and requires manual oversight to execute pilot studies beyond the configured MAX_PILOT_IDEAS limit.
