IEEE Transactions on Big Data

I'll share my experience of rejection. To be honest, I have had numerous articles rejected myself and it happens quite often. But the peer review in this case was beyond belief, and I truly have no words. Suddenly, I understand what others have said, that journal editors reject based on their own preferences.

I first submitted in December of the 21st year, and after two and a half months, I received the first review. The review included detailed comments from each reviewer, with two major revisions and one minor revision. The main feedback was that the data was insufficient. The Associate Editor (AE) gave a "reject and resubmit" decision, asking me to supplement the data. So, I added new data in April, which was more than twice the amount of the previous data.

In early April, I submitted the revised article for the second review, and received the feedback on July 4th. It included one major revision, one minor revision, and an acceptance. However, the AE rejected it, stating a lack of novelty. The AE said that all the reviewers pointed out that my method was too simple and lacked complexity, leaning more towards engineering.

Firstly, the idea I proposed was the first of its kind in the field. Secondly, the method itself focuses on information fusion analysis. As a data mining article, it naturally includes a significant amount of analysis, including engineering-oriented analysis. This can be seen in many articles published in TKDD and TKDE.

Furthermore, I compared my method with eight other methods from recent years (2019-2021) which were published in journals like TPAMI and DMKD. My method yielded the best results. Isn't it a contribution to have a simple and effective approach?
