The requirements are strict. It turned out to be a tragedy in two months after submission. It requires innovation, a large number of charts and formulas, and it is no less difficult than the journals in Q2 or Q3. If you are anxious to graduate or need it to be open access, it is not recommended to submit your paper here. If you have academic pursuits, or are not anxious to publish, then you can submit. The overall quality of the articles in this journal is good, the external review opinions are not extreme, and they are valuable for scientific research.

The editor is very responsible and will carefully check the grammar and formatting issues. The experts' opinions are very pertinent and modest, and the opinions are very constructive. It is useful for improving the quality of papers. Although it is open access journal in Q4, I feel that this journal is different from other open access journals, and it is not the same as Sensor, Material, Applied science, Materials and Design, or Journal of Simulation Modeling, which mainly pursue money. You will feel the seriousness of the editors and reviewers during the submission process. I hope that the journal will rise steadily.

The review speed was okay, but to be accepted is not as easy as before. It has stricter requirements for innovation and overall structure. I feel that this journal is beginning to be serious. I was sad that the manuscript regarding optimized algorithm has been rejected. And the comments were very professional, and all the comments were to the point. Later, after revising according to the revision comments, it was submitted to the Journal of Intelligence Manufacturing. Thank the journal reviewers very much for the comments.

Review at this journal is done professionally. After it became an OA journal, the number of published papers and speed are greatly improved. The typesetting is of ordinary quality.

If you want to spend money on open-source articles to complete your graduation, it is recommended not to submit to this journal and choose another open-source one instead. The speed is slower compared to other open-source journals, and the review process feels strict. Normally, there are three reviewers, and the editorial department requires one month for review. Therefore, if you need to make modifications and submit again, it will take another month. From submission to acceptance, it takes about five months, assuming it meets the reviewers' preferences.

Currently, we are still in the decision-making process, and this state has been going on for a month.

Excuse me, it has been half a month since the decision was made. Should I remind the editor-in-chief?

It is the 7th floor, haha.

Correcting the error, the member mentioned by the 6th floor is not someone who can join just by wanting to. Only professors with a certain level of influence who work at universities or executives in companies can become members. This journal is an open-access journal with a relatively low number of articles published each year. The rejection rate is very high, but the quality control is acceptable. There is no occurrence of spamming in the articles. The editor-in-chief is busy with their own projects and treats this journal as a side job. In the eyes of the editor-in-chief, the journal is a medium for researchers to exchange ideas. Haha, I don't think there will be any major improvements in the future. However, the purpose of the journal and the review process are still strictly regulated. Generally, it takes 6-12 months to receive the results of external review. I hope the editor-in-chief takes the journal seriously and improves its ranking and impact factor, as these aspects are still valued in China.

Hello, senior upstairs. I also submitted an article related to artificial intelligence. It has been "with editor" for over a month and "under review" for over three months without any updates. May I ask how to urge the submission website?

(0) Thank | 乐乐同学

Excuse me, is the person above referring to being rejected after five months of submission? I have also submitted an article over three months ago and I'm starting to feel a bit anxious as it is still under review.
