Author’s Commitments

Adherence to CC BY 4.0 License: By submitting their manuscript to the Journal of Decision Analytics and Intelligent Computing (JDAIC), authors agree that, upon acceptance, their work will be published under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) license. This license allows for the broad dissemination and reuse of the published material, provided that proper credit is given to the original authors. Authors must ensure that they are fully aware of and compliant with the terms of this license, which facilitates the sharing of knowledge while preserving the authors' rights to attribution.

Accurate Representation of Contributions: All listed authors must affirm that they have made substantial contributions to the research presented in the manuscript. This includes involvement in the study's conception, design, execution, or interpretation. Additionally, each author must have reviewed the manuscript, approved the final version, and agreed to its submission. This requirement ensures that the authorship accurately reflects those who have played a significant role in the creation of the work, thereby upholding the integrity of the research and the publication process. 

Commitment to Unpublished Work: Authors must declare that the manuscript they are submitting to the Journal of Decision Analytics and Intelligent Computing (JDAIC) is original, has not been published previously in any form, and is not currently under consideration by another journal. This commitment ensures the novelty of the research and upholds the high standards of Journal of Decision Analytics and Intelligent Computing (JDAIC) as a source of new and unique contributions to the field. While we recognize the value of sharing research through preprints, we encourage authors to be mindful of how preprint distribution may impact the originality assessment, particularly in relation to similarity checks during the submission process. To facilitate a smooth and efficient review, we recommend that authors carefully manage the dissemination of their work prior to submission to avoid potential complications. 

Adherence to Ethical Standards: Authors are expected to uphold the highest ethical standards throughout the submission and review process. Once a manuscript has undergone its first review, it cannot be withdrawn, and no changes to the author list will be permitted after acceptance. This policy helps to maintain the consistency and integrity of the publication process. Authors must also ensure that all information provided during submission is accurate and truthful, as this underpins the credibility of the research and the trustworthiness of the journal.
