After the paper is uploaded for the first time, there is a one-month quality inspection process, mainly to check whether the research direction conforms to the journal and whether the English writing reaches the level. This process is estimated to be completed by AE and ADM (journal editor). At this time, the status of the paper will also enter the "under review", but it is only the quality inspection stage.
If it passes the quality inspection (if it fails, it will be returned directly, similar to the IEEE signal processing letter), and the paper will formally enter the review stage. At the beginning of July, the review lasted for about 4 months, and a major revision (RQ) was received. Three reviewers gave two RQs, and the reviewers of one AQ and two RQs mainly raised questions about the organizational structure of the paper.
This is mainly because my algorithm contains several innovations, which failed to highlight the key points when writing, and the formula derivation is a bit long; However, all three reviewers affirmed the innovation of the paper.
Useful experience:
1, as long as you have confidence in your own ideas, no matter what the evaluation results are, you don't have to panic in your heart, and you will have a chance if you don't let me vote again.
2. Take every opinion of the reviewers seriously. They are all calves in this field, and their views are likely to play an important role in promoting the article.
3. If the modification time is not enough, apply for an extension of the modification time several days in advance. As long as the reason is justified, the editor will readily agree.
4.TIP the whole submission cycle is very long. Be patient and do something else.
Introduction:
(1) IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence (PAMI for short) is one of the most important academic journals in IEEE.
(2) ACM Transactions on Graphics, a graphic magazine of the American Computer Association, focuses on the processing of computer graphics, and its influence factors in this field are also relatively high.
(3) International Journal of Computer Vision is also one of the top journals in this field. Compared with PAMI, this journal pays more attention to theoretical derivation.
(4) IEEE Transactions on Image Processing is also one of the representative journals in the field of image processing, slightly lower than the above three journals.
