What it does

Written by AI from the README

Adds a CCFA column to the item list that shows the short name of a CCF A-class journal or conference, such as CVPR or TPAMI. It uses the 2026 seventh-edition catalogue and works offline.

Computer science researchers in China need to know which publications are CCF A-class. This shows it in the library without manual tagging.

Your review is public, under the name you give, and published with the directory's data under CC BY 4.0. Links are removed. We never store your IP address: a scrambled code made from it is kept for 30 days to catch fake reviews. Every review is checked before it's published; how fake ones are spotted isn't published, so it can't be gamed.
