Gallop 2021-12-20

I have submitted twice and both were sent for review. The first time took 2 months with less than 20 questions, which I didn't think was a problem, but it was rejected. The second time took 4 months for revisions, and it was accepted 2 months later. I personally think the first article was better than the second one, so I believe the journal's decision depends more on whether they need it or not, rather than the quality.

The review has indeed been submitted, and the reviewer has provided a bunch of references for me to cite. It's really unreasonable to rush before Christmas, it's really over the top.

Possibly only one reviewer was consulted, along with the opinions of the associate editor, to make the final decision.

Your situation is 99% likely to be rejected without review.

kongzhi 2021-12-20

The speed is indeed too fast. I guess the reviewer didn't carefully read it and just gave a random review result. During the review process, there is a comprehensive score, which includes suggestions for publication and innovation, among other things. The associate editor can see it, but it won't be displayed for the authors to see. I guess the rejection is based on that comprehensive evaluation.

Editing is just a rejection, without even reading the paper. This is not the first time my submission has been rejected, and it is through the review comments of these experts that I have gradually improved and had several SCI papers accepted. If the reviewers can spot the flaws, then being rejected is still a gain. However, there were a total of 17 comments, ranging from the experiments, introduction, flowcharts, and outlook, all stating that I did not write or draw them. I feel that anyone with eyes would recognize a flowchart, right? Previously, a reviewer mentioned that the font size was small, so I asked my colleagues in the research group to help me check each figure, and I spent a lot of time considering the font size. Because I regard KBS, a journal with an impact factor of around 8, as a top-tier publication compared to my independent research work as a little master's student, I take it very seriously. However, out of the 17 comments, excluding the "so-called expert" who made some baseless claims, there were only two comments that were actually related to the content of the article. One was about some minor errors, such as a symbol being mistakenly capitalized or lowercase, and the other was about merging a small heading. There was no questioning of the innovation or experiments. Yet, my paper was rejected like this. Who can accept that? This upgraded version is already a top-tier journal in Zone 1. With such an attitude and quality, should there not be any shame?

What is the reason for rejection given by the editor? Or did the editor not even read the paper and gave no reason...

My situation is similar to yours, both the major and minor revisions were rejected. The reviewer for the major revision didn't even read my paper properly. I included a 4-page analysis of parameter sensitivity, but they insisted that my paper didn't analyze the impact of parameters. It's ridiculous.

A major revision and a minor revision were rejected. The major revision was too excessive. My flowchart was so big that it occupied half a page. "Please draw a flowchart," what else can I say? The review comments for this submission were also unhelpful. It's really frustrating.

It means reviewing the manuscript, invitation is not the status.

kongzhi 2021-12-15

"Showing 'under review' indicates that the associate editor has invited reviewers, but it does not necessarily mean that someone has agreed to review. It will only show 'under review' if one or more reviewers have agreed to review."

Today, an email arrived and the associate editor handled it. Thank you for the speed before Christmas, thank you! Recording again:

It was processed by the editor on the same day, such a fast speed. The email notification mentioned that the chief editor handled my paper, so it shouldn't be too strict!

May I ask what happened in the end? Were you hired?

小菜鸟 2021-12-03

I had two reviewers, one major revision and one minor revision, but the editor rejected it. It is said that this journal now rejects manuscripts with major revisions because there are too many submissions. Fortunately, from "with editor" to the final decision, it only took 20 days, so it didn't delay things.

kongzhi 2021-12-02

Why was the major revision + minor revision still rejected? Was the reviewer unsatisfied with the response or was the editor unsatisfied?

Artificial Intelligence Interdisciplinary Application, lasting two and a half months, two minor revisions, one major revision, one rejection.

4 reviewers, unsure if they are arbitrators, because the reviewers are #1~#4.

奥特曼打怪 2021-11-30

Hello, may I ask how many reviewers are there? Why is it "under review" again after RRC? Has it been arbitrated?

Your KBS required review was completed very quickly. I have been in this state for over a week now, and the status date has changed again recently, but it is still "required review completed". Hmm, maybe there are new comments coming back? It can't be that AE has found a bunch of reviewers and met the minimum requirements, but there are new comments coming back, right? Well, that would just drive me crazy...

A bit fast, feeling envious.

May I ask what direction you are heading, brother? You're moving so fast! It seems that the speeds of different AE (After Effects) are quite different.

May I ask what direction brother is heading in? It seems like different AE speeds vary greatly.
