Author Guidelines

Authors should read the aims and scope before submission. Manuscripts must be original, clearly written and not under review elsewhere.

Article types

• Research articles
• Review articles
• Methods and systems papers
• Dataset, benchmark and software papers
• Short communications

Technical reporting

State the research question, related work, datasets, preprocessing, train-validation-test splits, baselines, evaluation metrics and experimental protocol. Report hyperparameters, computing environment, random seeds, ablation studies and uncertainty or statistical tests where relevant. Distinguish measured results from interpretation and discuss limitations.

Code, data and responsible computing

Include a Data and Code Availability Statement. Provide code, data, trained models and documentation in a stable repository where permissions allow. Explain restrictions involving privacy, security, licensing or sensitive data. Studies involving people, identifiable data, surveillance, high-risk applications or dual-use capabilities must report appropriate ethics review, consent, safeguards and risk assessment.

Review files

Provide a separate title page and an anonymized manuscript for double-blind review. Disclose funding, competing interests, author contributions and any material use of generative AI tools.
