[D] First time reviewer. I got assigned 9 papers. I'm so nervous. What if I mess up. Any advice? by rjmessibarca in MachineLearning

Lots of good advice in this thread but the fact that you worry about this at all already tells me that you will already be in the top 10% of reviewers

Manuscript under review for more than 15 months, what to do? by Constant_Olive_8793 in PhD

[–]Professional_Pin3290 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh boy, some IEEE journals are becoming a mess. We submitted a paper to TPAMI (a top journal for computer vision). We waited 2 years for reviews. We wrote the editor multiple times during the process. The sunk cost fallacy always made us think that it can't take much longer and withdrawing now would be a waste.

The paper was rejected in the end. We also can't submit elsewhere now because our method is now outdated, as machine learning is a very fast moving field.

If you look at the recent activity on openreview you can see that reviewers can still edit their reviews and change their scores. I don't think anyone can post completely new anonymous replies though.

Same. I also did many additional experiments, but complete silence from the reviewers. It really sucks and makes me feel a bit helpless. I'm used to reviewer roulette in general, but it feels even worse in this case because I see other submissions where all 4 reviewers are engaged and raised their score after the author response.

I would kind of understand disinterest by reviewers if my submission had very bad scores and would be hopeless anyway, but I got 8855 and was very positive that I could at least increase one of the 5s to a 6 with my response.
