Journals
All authors are supposed to submit the manuscript containing original contents. The manuscript which has not been simultaneously submitted to, nor published in any other publication channels, solely can be accepted. If the same paper is found appearing or published in any other publication, the paper will be automatically rejected. The paper previously published in other minor publications such as conference, workshop, seminar, or proceedings can be eligible for being reviewed and published in TechArt. But we require that the paper be substantially revised with at least 30% new contents which have never been published in the previous publications. Even though the new results from the conference paper are not required, the revised manuscript version should include expansion of key ideas, examples, explanations, figures, tables, elaborations, etc. The manuscript should indicate its previously published conference name and date as a footnote in the left bottom of the first page. Authors very briefly indicate how the new submission offers substantial novel contributions beyond those of the previously published paper(s) or proceedings. We strictly prohibit plagiarism and self plagiarism. If plagiarism is found in a paper in review or in the publication, the Steering Committee of the TechArt: Journal of Arts and Imaging Science will immediately investigate the case. The severe penalty will be imposed on the author(s) related to the plagiarism case based on the investigation. Manuscripts must be submitted online in MS-Word format at https://sicrc.jams.or.kr/ Any enquiries should be directed to techart14@gmail.com. All authors must complete and submit the Copyright Agreement using the file attached below. In addition, all authors must agree to the Research Ethics Pledge through the online submission system (JAMS). To help prevent plagiarism, authors must conduct a text similarity check using the KCI Similarity Check service and upload the resulting report through JAMS when submitting their manuscripts.

■ Reviewers 1. Peer Review All Research Papers and Short Papers that pass the initial editorial assessment undergo a double-anonymized peer-review process involving at least two independent reviewers with expertise in the relevant field. If the reviewers’ recommendations differ substantially, an additional reviewer may be invited. The Editor makes the final decision regarding the acceptance, revision, or rejection of a manuscript, based on the reviewers’ reports and the academic merit of the submission, in consultation with the Editorial Board. 2. Selection of Reviewers The Editor or a designated editor selects at least two independent reviewers with relevant expertise, taking into account recommendations from Editorial Board members. Each selected reviewer receives an official review invitation. If an invited reviewer declines, an alternative reviewer may be selected. ■ Review Criteria Reviewers assess the suitability and quality of submitted manuscripts based on the following academic and manuscript quality criteria. 1. Academic Aspects (1) Originality of the research (2) Scholarly significance of the research (3) Appropriateness of assumptions and analysis (4) Mathematical soundness (where applicable) (5) Quality and appropriateness of supporting evidence, including data where applicable (6) Logical coherence of arguments 2. Manuscript Quality (1) Is the manuscript well organized? (2) Is the manuscript of appropriate length? (3) Is the manuscript grammatically correct and clearly written? (4) Does the title accurately represent the content? (5) Does the abstract clearly and concisely summarize the manuscript? (6) Do the keywords adequately represent the key concepts of the manuscript? (7) Does the conclusion adequately reflect the findings and arguments? (8) Do the references adequately cover relevant previous research? (9) Are the figures and tables clear and appropriate, where applicable? ■ Review of Manuscript Reviewers assess submitted manuscripts according to the review criteria specified in these guidelines. Reviewers should provide a recommendation on publication and an overall quality rating as follows. 1. Judgment on Appropriateness (1) Accept in present form: The manuscript is suitable for publication without further revision. (2) Accept with revision: The manuscript is suitable for publication subject to specified revisions. (3) Re-review required upon revision: The manuscript requires substantial revision and subsequent re-review before a final decision is made. (4) Decline: The manuscript is not suitable for publication. 2. Judgment on Quality Level (1) Excellent (2) Good (3) Average (4) Below Average (5) Poor ■ Deadline of Review Reviewers are asked to complete their review and submit the review report within one month of accepting the review invitation. The deadline may be extended with the approval of the Editor. ■ Process of Review Results 1. Request for Revision When revisions are recommended, authors will be notified of the reviewers’ comments and requested to revise their manuscripts accordingly. 2. Submission of Revised Manuscripts and Re-review Authors should submit their revised manuscripts, together with responses to the reviewers’ comments, by the deadline separately specified by the editorial office when the review results are communicated. Manuscripts receiving a decision of “Re-review required upon revision” will undergo another round of peer review. 3. Publication Once a manuscript has been accepted by the Editor, it proceeds to publication in accordance with the journal’s publication schedule. 4. Rejection or Closure A manuscript may be rejected or its submission process closed in the following cases: (1) A manuscript will be rejected if the final editorial decision is “Decline.” (2) A submission may be closed if the authors fail to submit the revised manuscript by the deadline specified by the editorial office, unless an extension has been approved. ■ Objections Authors who wish to appeal an editorial decision may submit a written statement specifying the reasons for their objection. The Editor will review the appeal in consultation with the Editorial Board. If the Editor has a conflict of interest, the appeal will be handled by another independent editor. ■ Reviewer Ethics All reviewers must comply with the journal’s Publication Ethics guidelines, including requirements for confidentiality, impartiality, and disclosure of conflicts of interest. ■ Additions The Editorial Board may discuss any additional matters concerning the journal’s review guidelines and publication procedures.
This journal operates a double-anonymized peer-review process. All submissions are initially assessed by the Editor for suitability for the journal. Research Papers and Short Papers deemed suitable are then sent to at least two independent reviewers with relevant expertise to assess the quality of the manuscripts.
The Editor makes the final decision regarding the acceptance, revision, or rejection of manuscripts, based on the reviewers’ reports and the academic merit of the submission, in consultation with the Editorial Board.
Editors must not participate in the peer review or editorial decisions concerning manuscripts they have authored or in which they have a personal, professional, or financial conflict of interest, including submissions by family members or close collaborators. Such manuscripts will be handled by an independent editor, who will oversee the peer-review process and make the final editorial decision in accordance with the journal’s standard procedures.
Following peer review, manuscripts may receive one of the following editorial decisions: ‘Accept in present form’, ‘Accept with revision’, ‘Re-review required upon revision’, or ‘Decline’.
| Decision | Description |
|---|---|
| Accept in present form | Accept in present form decision means that an editor is accepting the paper with no further modifications. The paper will not be seen again by the editor or by the reviewers. |
| Accept with revision | Accept with revision decision means that the paper can be accepted after the author has revised some requirements presented by the reviewers. |
| Re-review required upon revision | Re-review required upon revision decision means that the paper should go back to the original reviewers for a second round of reviews. We strongly discourage editors from making a decision based on their own review of the manuscript if a revision had been previously required. |
| Decline | The manuscript is not suitable for the TechArt: Journal of Arts and Imaging Science publication. |
■ Final Publication Materials Submission
If your paper is accepted for publication after the review process (e.g., Accept in Present Form or Accept with Revision), we will provide a detailed guide and an author checklist outlining the requirements for final paper submission. Please pay close attention to these requirements.
