Privacy Statement

Papers submitted to JAIR should be original and have never been published on any other journals.

If a paper is identified as a plagiarism, it will be retracted (publication) or rejected (manuscript).

In particular, the paper which is only published on a preprint website such as arXiV will not be identified as a plagiarism, if all authors are unchanged.

If the same work has been previously shown in a conference, the paper should have obvious substantive improvements and explicitly indicate the prior work in the citing manner.

In the case of resubmission, authors should provide the manuscript ID of previous submission and a supplementary document to explain the revisions corresponding to reviewers’ suggestions point by point.

In addition, as an important component of the academic integrity, authors are required to state “The authors declare that there is no conflict of interest” or explicitly list them in Conflicts of Interest in the paper. Similarly, authors are required to state “The authors declare that there is no funding” or explicitly list all sources in Acknowledgment in the paper.
