MAKE MOST OF THE KNOWLEDGE NETWORK, JOIN ACADEMIC RESEARCH FOUNDATION

Journal of Statistics and Computer Science is a double-blind peer reviewed bi-annual journal of the theoretical and applied areas in Statistics and Computer Science. It aims to provide a platform to the researchers working in the theoretical and applied aspects of Statistics and Computer Science and welcomes the highly innovative research papers and review articles. The emphasis is on the theoretical and methodological papers containing substantial derivations and applications. Topics of interest include Theoretical, Methodological, Computational and Applied areas in Statistics and Computer Science. 

Part A: Statistics. Papers providing important original contributions to theoretical and methodological statistics inspired by applications are considered. Papers dealing directly or indirectly, with computational and technical elements are particularly encouraged. These cover developments concerning issues of high-dimensionality, re-sampling, dependence, robustness, filtering, and, in general, the interaction of mathematical and statistical methods, numerical implementations and the extra burden of analyzing large and/or complex datasets in different areas such as agriculture, medicine, epidemiology, biology, psychology, climatology and communication, engineering, ecology, education, operations research, business, economics, management and finance. Innovative algorithmic developments are also of interest, as are the computer programs and the computational environments that implement them as a complement. 

Part B: Computer Science. Emphasis is given to theoretical and applied papers containing substantial derivations or showing potential of a significant impact in the broad area of Computer Science. Topics of interest include artificial intelligence, machine learning, data mining, computer networks, computer security, software engineering, algorithm & complexity, cryptography, computer architecture, databases, operating systems, computational biology and bioinformatics. Interest is focused as well on well-founded studies that demonstrate the practicality of new approaches and procedures. Such studies should involve the rigorous application of statistical techniques, including estimation, inference, and design of experiments. Innovative contributions that use advanced statistical methods are encouraged. The results of the submissions should be replicable. Applications consisting only of routine calculations are not of interest to the journal.

JSCS INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS

The JSCS welcomes the submission of original research papers and well-focused review articles in Statistics and Computer Science  electronically as word file, LaTeX format with PDF directly to the Editor in Chief:  eicjscs@gmail.com 

Each submission must contain both blinded and unblinded versions of the manuscript. 

The paper should be written clearly and concisely in English without spelling and grammatical mistakes and must include Title, Name(s), and Institutional Affiliation(s) of the author(s) in case of unblinded copy, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Methodology, Results and Discussion, Conclusion, Acknowledgement, References and Appendix, if any. Blind version of the manuscript should not contain authors’ names anywhere in the manuscript. Pages should be numbered consecutively. 

The title of the paper should be brief and concise. Abstract should be a short summary of the paper with a maximum length of 250 words which must appear on the first page of the manuscript after the title, followed by a maximum of 5 keywords and MSC 2020 subject classification.

Authors wishing to include figures, tables, or text passages that have already been published elsewhere are required to obtain permission from the copyright owner(s) and to include evidence that such permission has been granted when submitting their papers. Any material received without such evidence will be assumed to originate from the authors.

While including tables, note that each table should start with a Table number and caption at the top. Tables should be sequentially numbered in Arabic numerals as Table 1, Table 2, etc. and the caption should follow the Table number, after a colon. Also, the Tables and captions should be center aligned. 

All diagrams, figures and other illustrations should be named as figures, and numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals (Figure 1, Figure 2, etc,) followed by a colon and a short caption at the bottom. All the Figures and captions should be center aligned.

Use APA system, and add DOI numbers for each reference, if it is available.

JOURNAL POLICY

It is the policy of the journal that no submission, or substantially overlapping submission, be published or be under review at another journal or conference at any time during the review process.

Submission of a manuscript implies that it has been approved by all authors as well as by the responsible authorities tacitly or explicitly at the institute where the work has been carried out.

The publisher and the editors will not be held legally responsible should there be any claims for compensation.

The peer-review process of the journal is a double-blind process. While submitting the revised manuscript, the authors should clearly explain point-by-point as to how the reviewers' comments have been addressed. If the authors disagree with reviewers' comments, the reason(s) should be explained. Decision of the editorial board will be final. The papers recommended by at least two reviewers will be accepted for publication.

We aim to complete the peer review process within 3 to 4 months, but it depends on the response of the peer reviewers.

Accepted papers will be published online on the website of the journal. The journal does not charge a submission fee or publication fee. If the article is accepted for publication, it will be published without incurring any cost to the authors.

Once accepted, the manuscripts should be submitted as both Word file and LaTeX format of the journal. The submission should include the original source file and a PDF version of the compiled output.

Plagiarism policy: Every paper should accompany a similarity index report in Turnitin anti plagiarism software. The plagiarism percentage should not exceed 10-15% per cent (excluding 8 words). Further it should not be more than one per cent from one source.

Covering Letter: A cover letter addressed to the editor-in-chief that includes the paper title, name(s) and institutional affiliation(s) of the author(s) should be submitted along with the manuscript.

Editor-in-Chief: Dr. Poonam Singh, Professor, Department of Statistics, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007, India, e-mail: eicjscs@gmail.com
