Proposing a Special Issue for CJMLIT

What is a Special Issue?
Within the context of CJMLIT, a Special Issue brings together a set of rigorously peer-reviewed articles centered on an emerging or strategically important theme related to machine learning, intelligent transportation, and networked systems. Such an issue can help highlight innovative directions in the field, encourage interdisciplinary exchange, and showcase research with strong scientific and practical relevance to intelligent infrastructures.

Role of the Lead Guest Editor
A proposal for a Special Issue should designate a Lead Guest Editor. When several Guest Editors are involved, one individual should be identified to coordinate the initiative. The Lead Guest Editor is expected to demonstrate clear scholarly expertise in the proposed theme and to ensure that the project aligns with the editorial focus of CJMLIT. Responsibilities typically include shaping the thematic scope, assembling a qualified editorial team, inviting suitable contributors, and supervising the peer-review workflow in accordance with the journal’s quality standards.

How to Submit a Proposal
To propose a Special Issue, the editorial team should complete the Special Issue Proposal Form and submit it to the CJMLIT editorial office at cjmlit@cuspidescience.com. The proposal should clearly present the theme of the Special Issue, explain its relevance to the aims and scope of CJMLIT, highlight its originality, and outline its expected contribution to research in machine learning, intelligent transportation, and networked systems. Once submitted, the proposal will be reviewed by the journal’s editorial leadership to assess its suitability for publication in CJMLIT. The editorial team may request revisions to improve the clarity, focus, or alignment of the proposal before a final decision is made.
