Hi everyone,<\/p>\n
Our team recently submitted a dataset paper to Data in Brief, but it was desk rejected with the following comment:<\/p>\n
“The dataset and manuscript do not abide by our policy on machine learning imaging datasets.”<\/p>\n
Our dataset consists news photcards collected from Facebook. We manually collected to create a benchmark dataset for misinformation detection research. We’re now trying to understand what exactly went wrong.<\/p>\n
I have a few questions:<\/p>\n
– Has anyone received a similar rejection from Data in Brief?<\/p>\n
– Does this mean they no longer accept image datasets intended for machine learning, or is there a specific policy requirement we may have missed?<\/p>\n
– Would modifying the manuscript or dataset help, or should we submit to another data journal instead?<\/p>\n
– If another journal would be more suitable, which ones would you recommend for publishing image datasets?<\/p>\n
Thanks \ud83d\ude4f<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
