IJCAI Review Process Guide
Navigates the IJCAI and IJCAI-ECAI two-phase peer review process, summary rejection risks, rebuttal strategies, and decision dynamics.
IJCAI Review Process Guide equips academic researchers with strategic insights to successfully navigate the IJCAI and IJCAI-ECAI conference submission lifecycle. It breaks down the high-stakes two-phase review model, highlights the mechanics of early summary rejections, details the hierarchy of Program Committee and Area Chair roles (PC, SPC, AC, SAC), and provides clear rules for drafting effective author responses. By identifying critical pre-submission readability vulnerabilities and clarifying strict confidentiality, conflict-of-interest (COI), and ethics policies, this skill ensures authors maximize paper survivability and avoid procedural missteps.
