2022.4.2 submit
2022.8.27 assign AE
2022.11.21 waiting for AE decision
2022.12.12 reject
Waited for over eight months, only to receive a reject. The review process was incredibly slow, with nearly 5 months (4.2-8.27) spent waiting for AE assignment and almost 3 months (8.27-11.21) for the review. It truly wasted time. The reviewers were also inexperienced and had no understanding of the research field, providing random and misguided suggestions.
I advise all friends that unless you are completely confident, do not submit to TIP. The results of the first round take a long time, and minor or major revisions may be manageable, but getting rejected is truly devastating and a waste of time.

The review speed is extremely slow. If you are not completely confident, please be cautious when submitting.

The top journal of image processing, with relatively slow speed and declining cost-effectiveness.

I am the same, AE suddenly disappeared. I sent an email to inquire and was informed that it has been sent for review.

The above can be considered as my not-so-smooth experience on TIP. It is only for reference for my classmates. I advise those who are short on time to be cautious when submitting.

2022/04/10, submitted, passed pre-review after approximately 2 months.
2022/07/20, requested assignment of associate editor (AE), status changed from "AE not assign" to "in peer review" in the afternoon.
2022/10/10, first time requesting progress update, received a reply to be patient and wait.
2022/12/10, second time requesting progress update and also inquired about the disappearance of AE's name, received a reply that it is a normal phenomenon for the AE's name not to be displayed in the system.

In recent years, the quality of articles in TIP can be subjective. Personally, I feel that there is a growing gap in the direction involving DL (Deep Learning) and top conferences, which may be related to the slow review process.

However, there are also cases where the review process is faster. TIP invited reviewers for a paper submitted in July, and now the paper is awaiting AE decision in early November. It is possible that the fast track was taken with the help of acquaintances.

It's strange. I submitted it in mid-October, and a few days ago it was still marked as "AE:not assigned". But I'm still in the "submitted" status. I'm getting a little worried.

Same question, only AE has not been assigned (SAE has been assigned), in peer review, does this mean it has been sent for external review?

yuehaic 2022-12-04

I am in the same situation. Originally, I was also not assigned to an AE. Then today, I checked and the AE is no longer visible, but the status is still in peer review. Does this mean the review process has started?

科研小白 2022-11-28

I want to ask experienced classmates, after an article is accepted with mandatory revision (aq) and is modified (very minor modifications) before being resubmitted, will the editor send the article to the reviewer again? Or will the editor review it themselves? I checked the relevant regulations of the journal, and it seems that aq does not need to be resent to the reviewer. I'm not entirely sure, so I wanted to ask, hoping not to go through several months of review again.

After the maintenance of the submission system, the status will be as follows during the peer review: ae (Associate Editor), sae (Senior Associate Editor), eic (Editor-in-Chief), adm (Admin).

carl 2022-11-10

22.11.10 status: EIC, SAE, ADM; in peer review (I don't know why the name of AE is missing, and the status hasn't changed. Can any experienced person who knows tell me?)

carl 2022-11-10

22.11.10 status: EIC, SAE, ADM; in peer review

Translation: The status on November 22, 2010 is EIC, SAE, ADM; in peer review.

carl 2022-11-10

I suggest you directly email ADM to inquire about the status of the paper. It is very likely that ADM has forgotten to update it.

May I ask if you were assigned AE and received an email asking for additional author contributions? Mine has been "not assigned" for almost a month, and there was a request to modify author contributions in between.

carl 2022-11-02

22.11.2 AE assigned; in peer review

Translation: On November 22nd, 2 AE was assigned; currently undergoing peer review.

May I ask if you were assigned an AE, and did they send you an email requesting additional author contributions? Mine has been "Not assigned" for almost a month.

suny0610 2022-10-30

I also displayed "Awaiting SAE Decision Approval." What is the situation with this step?

bjtulingfeng 2022-10-30

How often do you remind them? I feel like it takes too long in the hands of the editor, it's not worth it at all.

11-Jul-2022 submitted
17-Oct-2022 assigned AE & In Peer Review
(On the 17th, a reminder was sent to inquire about the progress, and the editor replied on the same day that it had been assigned to the associate editor for peer review. It's possible that the status was not updated promptly.)

投 means "to invest" or "to contribute" in English.
仍未分配AE means "AE has not yet been allocated" in English.

So, the translation of the text "6月9号投，仍未分配AE" into English is "Invested on June 9th, AE has not yet been allocated."

Mine is also the same.
I don't know how to do it.

sdfas343 2022-09-21

Have you all encountered this status before? What does it mean? How long will it take?

Xinyi 2022-09-16

Submitted on June 6th, no AE assigned.

大鱼西 2022-09-15

Translated text: I applied on May 11th and it has been 4 months now, but I still haven't been assigned an Account Executive (AE). I have followed up twice and received the same response both times, which is quite disappointing. According to what I have seen online, AEs were assigned within approximately 3 months at the latest. Am I an exception?

YaoY 2022-09-15

May I ask if you finally know the meaning of this status? How long does it usually take for minor repairs to wait for a decision?
