About this lab

The Advanced Machine Intelligence Research Lab (AMIR) is a virtual research group dedicated to pushing the boundaries of machine learning, deep learning, and autonomous systems. Founded in early 2024, the lab brings together students from BSc to PhD level under the guidance of Dr. Arfan Khan.

Our research spans foundational theory and applied systems — from novel architectures in neural computation to real-world deployment of intelligent agents. Members follow a structured three-phase programme: literature mastery → experimentation → publication.

AMIR Lab is affiliated with the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society. We publish primarily in IEEE Transactions, Elsevier journals, and top-tier ML conferences including NeurIPS, ICML, and AAAI.

      Peer review process

      Every research and review article in AET is reviewed by at least two independent experts under double anonymous review: reviewers do not know who the authors are, and authors do not know who the reviewers are.

      The process

      1. Editorial office check. Format, completeness, anonymity and a similarity check. Target: within 7 days.
      2. Editor assessment. The Editor in Chief or an associate editor checks scope and basic soundness. Papers that clearly do not fit are declined at this stage with a reason, so authors can submit elsewhere quickly.
      3. External review. At least two reviewers who do not work with the authors and have no conflict of interest. Target: reports within 4 weeks.
      4. Decision. Accept, minor revision, major revision or reject. The handling editor recommends and the Editor in Chief decides. Target for a first decision: 6 to 8 weeks from submission.
      5. Revision. Authors answer every comment point by point. Major revisions go back to the reviewers.
      6. Acceptance and production. Copy editing, proofs and publication.

      Times are targets, not guarantees. The journal never promises acceptance or a publication date in exchange for anything.

      What reviewers assess

      • Is the question clear and within scope?
      • Are the methods sound and described well enough to repeat?
      • Do the results support the conclusions? Are limitations stated?
      • Is prior work cited fairly?
      • Are ethics, data and conflicts of interest handled properly?

      Reviewer duties

      • Keep the manuscript confidential. Do not share it or upload it to AI tools.
      • Decline if you have a conflict of interest or lack the expertise.
      • Be specific, fair and constructive. Do not ask authors to cite your own work without a scholarly reason.
      • Report suspected plagiarism, duplicate publication or data problems to the editor.

      Submissions from editors and from ScholarLabs AI labs

      An editor or board member who submits a paper takes no part in handling it; another editor manages the review and the author cannot see the reviewers. Papers from researchers in ScholarLabs AI virtual labs receive no preference: they follow the same anonymous review, handled by an editor with no link to the lab. The journal keeps papers authored by its own editors and reviewers to no more than a quarter of any issue.

      Appeals

      Authors may appeal a decision once, in writing, with a point by point case, to welcome@scholarlabs.ai. An editor who was not involved, and a new reviewer where needed, considers the appeal. The Editor in Chief's decision on an appeal is final.
