Focus and Scope
Open Access
The Journal of Pattern Recognition Research provides an Open Access publishing option for authors in all fields of pattern recognition and artificial intelligence. All articles are free to download and author's retain the right to use their article for non-commercial purposes.
JPRR publishes original papers that contain:
- new methodologies and algorithms with theoretical or empirical justification
- experimental and theoretical studies yielding new insight into the design of pattern classifiers
- applications of existing techniques that uncover the strengths and weaknesses of the methods
- new analytical frameworks for studies of practical classification methods
- new models of knowledge for representation, manipulation, and generation by intelligent systems
- experimental dead end works and workarounds
- surveys of existing work in science, engineering and commerce applications

Peer Review Process
Overview Papers must be concise and self-contained. Manuscripts should be carefully proofread and polished. Submissions that do not meet these criteria may not be considered for review. All claims should be supported either by empirical experiments or theoretical analyses. Any experiments reported should be reproducible. Papers describing theoretical results should also discuss their practical utility. Papers should report on what was learned in doing the work. Authors must clearly acknowledge the state-of-the-art contributions to the field. If a paper introduces new terminology or techniques, it should also explain why current terminology or techniques are insufficient.
Originality Submitted papers should not have been published previously or be pending publication in another journal. Research that has been published at workshops or conferences will be considered. Authors must notify JPRR about previous or pending conference publication at the time of submission.
Reviewing JPRR is committed to rigorous yet rapid reviewing. Authors will be notified of the required review period in special circumstances when a longer review period may be necessary. JPRR reviewers make recommendations to accept or reject. If a paper requires substantial revisions, the editor may recommend that the author submit a revised version. A paper may be revised and resubmitted at most once. If a paper is accepted, the editor may require minor revisions which should be completed in up to three months. Upon receiving a revised paper the editor may, ask the reviewers to re-review the revised paper. Electronic publication will occur immediately upon receipt of the final version of an accepted article.
