Notice on the Submission of AI-Generated Content Detection Reports

To further standardize the submission and peer-review process, uphold academic integrity, and ensure the originality and academic quality of manuscripts, the Journal has introduced a requirement for AI-generated content detection for all submissions, effective immediately.

All authors must submit an AI-generated content detection report together with their manuscript. The report must be issued by a recognized platform with relevant detection functions. It must be complete and clearly presented, and should include the article title, detection results, and the percentage of AI-generated content.

The percentage of AI-generated content in a manuscript must not exceed 20%. If the detection result exceeds 20%, the author must revise the relevant content and resubmit the manuscript after obtaining a new report that meets the requirement. The Journal reserves the right to conduct an independent recheck. The manuscript may be returned or its processing may be suspended if the author fails to submit the report, if the report is incomplete, if the detected percentage exceeds the permitted limit, or if there is a clear discrepancy between the Journal’s recheck result and the report submitted by the author.

The AI-generated content detection report is used only as a reference during the initial screening and academic integrity review. It does not replace the Journal’s assessment of the manuscript’s originality, academic value, research methods, citation practices, or writing quality. Authors remain fully responsible for the authenticity, accuracy, originality, and academic integrity of their manuscripts.

Authors are requested to carefully review their manuscripts before submission and provide all required materials. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

This notice is hereby issued.
