IJCNN 2025 employes a double-blind review process, where each paper undergoes an anonymous evaluation by three independent experts following our ethical guidelines. Reviewers are automatically selected based on their expertise in relation to each paper’s topic.

Conflicts of interest include instances where reviewers and authors share the same institution or have familial, collaborative, or other affiliations. Reviewers will indicate their confidence in the paper’s subject matter, score the paper based on six criteria, and provide comments for authors.

Technical Program Chairs and Area Chairs will carefully consider review scores, particularly for borderline papers, and will select the final list of accepted papers, aiming for an acceptance rate of 40%.
