Peer Review Policy

Ensuring Quality and Innovation Through Rigorous Peer Review

The Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research and Innovation (JAIRI) is committed to maintaining the highest scientific and ethical standards through a structured and transparent peer review process. This ensures that all published research is original, high-impact, and contributes to the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and applications.

Through a meticulous evaluation process, we aim to publish pioneering research that drives technological advancements in AI, machine learning, deep learning, and computational intelligence.

Peer Review Process

The JAIRI follows a **double-blind peer review** system to eliminate bias and ensure fairness. Both authors and reviewers remain anonymous throughout the review process.

The peer review process includes the following steps:

  1. Initial Evaluation: The editorial team screens the manuscript for plagiarism, scope relevance, and adherence to guidelines.
  2. Reviewer Assignment: Two or more domain experts in AI and computational research are selected.
  3. Expert Review: Reviewers evaluate the manuscript’s originality, technical rigor, methodology, and impact.
  4. Feedback and Recommendations: Reviewers provide constructive comments, suggesting acceptance, revisions, or rejection.
  5. Revision and Resubmission: If necessary, authors revise their manuscript and resubmit it for further evaluation.
  6. Final Decision: The editorial board reviews feedback and makes the final publication decision.
  7. Publication: Accepted articles are formatted, assigned a **DOI**, and made available as open-access content.

Evaluation Criteria

Manuscripts are assessed based on the following factors:

  • Technical Depth: Innovation in AI models, algorithms, and applications.
  • Scientific Rigor: Strong research methodology, reproducibility, and experimental validation.
  • Novelty and Contribution: Significant advancements in AI theory and real-world applications.
  • Ethical Considerations: Compliance with ethical guidelines for AI development and deployment.
  • Clarity and Organization: Well-structured content with appropriate citations and references.

Reviewer Responsibilities

Reviewers play a crucial role in maintaining the journal’s quality. Their responsibilities include:

  • Providing constructive, unbiased, and timely feedback.
  • Evaluating research based on technical accuracy, innovation, and relevance.
  • Maintaining confidentiality and avoiding conflicts of interest.
  • Ensuring that the manuscript adheres to ethical AI standards.

Editorial Decisions

Following the review process, the editorial team may take one of the following decisions:

  • Accept: The manuscript is approved for publication without further modifications.
  • Minor Revision: Authors are required to make slight modifications before final acceptance.
  • Major Revision: Substantial improvements are necessary before reconsideration.
  • Reject: The manuscript does not meet the journal's quality or ethical standards.

Authors receive detailed reviewer comments to guide necessary revisions.

Appeals and Disputes

Authors may appeal a rejection decision by submitting a detailed response addressing reviewer comments. Appeals are reviewed by the editorial board before a final verdict is made.

Commitment to Ethical Peer Review

The Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research and Innovation adheres to internationally recognized peer review ethics and follows guidelines set by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE). We are dedicated to upholding integrity, fairness, and transparency in academic publishing.
