RE: https://mastodon.social/@alelazic/116247212025880664

The journal uses the Transparent Peer Review system. I didn't put my name in the Comments to the author but I did agree to something like "I want my name visible in the TRP". So if the paper gets accepted my name will be linked to my open review. But will it be known to the authors at this stage? #openreview #openscience

“OpenReview’s backend obligingly returned the full, de-anonymized profiles of reviewers, authors, and area chairs, not just for ICLR 2026, but for any conference hosted on the platform.

Double-blind review, the sacred cow of CS publishing, had just become Naked Review.”

I got this very weird email from #OpenReview

A Message from AI Research Leaders: Join Us in Supporting OpenReview
(https://openreview.net/forum/pineau|a_message_from_ai_research_leaders_join_us_in_supporting_openreview)

First, I appreciate OpenReview because they provide a way to organise conference submissions and reviews to Bioc and EuroBioc conferences.

That would be the reason I would consider supporting them.

NOT because AI conferences benefit from it.

If OpenReview is so central to AI< why can't any of the AI companies not donate a tiny drop of their funds to guarantee OpenReview sustainability for the forthcoming future?

I now had to check that OpenReview wasn't using our reviews to train AI models - I could see any indication they do.

@krismicinski Oh wow. In my pile of around 12 papers for AAAI (I'm senior PC) I missed about 9 (out of 36) reviews yesterday (12h before the AoE deadline just now) from regular PC members. Extrapolating to 23,000 papers / 69,000 reviews, people are trying to upload 17,000+ reviews as we speak ...

@Lluis_Revilla I just learned about #OpenReview (https://openreview.net/about), which they use for the paper submissions. This looks like an interesting tool.

To clarify: I think these #mdpi #frontiers #SciRep should be treated as #preprints. I agree there are some really good preprints!

Regarding options for #openreview publishing, there's now @PeerCommunityIn and @PeerCommunityJournal for many fields!

Call for @joss reviewers:

EdgeVPN.io
repo: https://github.com/EdgeVPNio/evio
pre-review: https://github.com/openjournals/joss-reviews/issues/6355
language: Python

Description:

EdgeVPN.io is an evolution of the IP-over-P2P (IPOP) project. IPOP started as an IP-based peer-to-peer overlay targeting personal devices, and over time the architecture evolved to adopt various standards, support centralized user/group management, and incorporate software-defined networking, culminating in the current architecture, tailored for research and development in nascent edge computing applications.
...
EdgeVPNio is a research project to build networking for the fog, spanning the network continuum from the cloud to its edge. It builds networking cyber-infrastructure which supports emerging IoT era applications.

Looks like this one might be a bit of fun for #p2p people, or i suppose #DistributedSystems people generally. No prior experience reviewing for JOSS is required, experience with Python is required, and some experience with the topic area is preferred. Don't be shy! If you've never done open review before, JOSS is a great place to start. It's a really good way to learn by teaching (or learn by reading!) in a collaborative context. You can reply here or on the pre-review issue to volunteer :)

edit: would love to have some infosec people on this one! even and especially if you are not in academia :)

#OpenReview #PeerReview #SoftwareReview #CodeReview #JOSS

Instead of only proposing how to do research—in this case how to select claims that need #replication — in a paper, we invite alternatives, improvements, criticisms in commentaries, creating open dialogue instead of black box reviews https://open.lnu.se/index.php/metapsychology/announcement/view/10 #metascience #OpenReview #openscience target paper w/ Peder Isager and @lakens here https://osf.io/preprints/metaarxiv/knjea

Please let's do #openreview in academia. #reviewer2 provided such an excellent and thoughtful line of reasoning for his or her rejection that I would definitely invite him as a co-author. And the fact that this sounds sarcastic shows the need for more openness in our #peerreview system.

Still looking for a second reviewer for @pyOpenSci

Package: automata
review: https://github.com/pyOpenSci/software-submission/issues/152
repo: https://github.com/caleb531/automata
description: A Python library for simulating finite automata, pushdown automata, and Turing machines.

Open reviews are a great way to learn by teaching, see what other people are up to, and make software development a valued and creditable part of academic work. Anyone with familiarity with Python is welcome as a reviewer, experience in the topic domain is a bonus but not required. DM me or reply on the above issue, it's fun, i promise! :)

I'm looking for reviewers for two packages at the moment:

Automata (@pyOpenSci )
Review: https://github.com/pyOpenSci/software-submission/issues/152
Repo: https://github.com/caleb531/automata
A #Python library for simulating finite #automata, pushdown automata, and Turing machines.

Kirstine.jl
( @joss )
Review: https://github.com/openjournals/joss-reviews/issues/6193
Repo: https://sr.ht/~lsandig/Kirstine.jl
A #Julia package for Bayesian optimal experimental design with nonlinear regression models.

You'll be working with another reviewer to read and run the code, make sure it fills a basic checklist which usually only takes a few hours, and beyond that whatever youd like to focus on. Both of these are collaborative review processes where the goal is to help these packages be usable, well documented, and maintainable for the overall health of free scientific software.

Its fun, I promise! Happy to answer questions and boosts welcome.

Edit: feel free to volunteer as a reply here, DM me, or commenting on those issues! Anyone is welcome! Some experience with the language required, but other than that I can coach you through the rest.

One of the things I keep thinking about in my #PhD is the need for an #academic #conference service in universities that handles the logistics of running workshops, symposia, conferences, etc.

From what I can see, this work is done by academics, and while they often do a great job, it's not their core skill set, and it takes away from key research activities.

The service offering I see this service having would be venue booking, AV setup, hybrid conference arrangement, CfP and papers talks and proceeding management, website production, as well as some form of social media and promotional management.

There are platforms - like #OpenReview - that handle *parts* of this service, but we need an integrated service offering, preferably at the whole of sector level ...

This new paper by @agrinsted (or rather #preprint, it's in #EGUSphere for #TheCryosphere in #OpenReview) is the first one to be submitted under our new #PRECISE project on #IceSheets + #SeaLevel - that officially kicks off next week. It was a very welcome return to the field of #crevasses #Ice + #Fracture that I worked on for my PhD.

Looking at a recent graph from the Web of Science service, it's terrible: I no longer review!

In fact, I have just changed my pattern: much less reviews for big companies (Elesevier, ...), a priority for #openreview (conferences and workshops).

Clarivate and co. should recognize that authors are changing their behavior and include this important part of #scientists' jobs.

However, please note that the download is quite large, almost 135 GB, and many peer review files are in PDF format (due to reviewers using LaTeX or figures). In light of recent controversies about MDPI, we believe it's important to study these reviews. Papers frequently have more than 4 reviewers over multiple rounds. You can analyze these reviews qualitatively, but we recommend using NLP and quantitative tools for a more thorough analysis. #metascience #openreview #openscience 2/2

Great work by #PLOS in the keynote of Alison Mudditt. I wish more publishers were like #PLOS or #eLife...

I liked the comment by Alison on 'a basket of metrics' and checking how open an article is (#OpenAccess, #OpenData, #OpenSoftware, #OpenReview), instead of focusing on a single number.

✨ Podcast episode about #OpenReview ✨

In this episode of #rebootacademia we talk about the idea behind Open Review as a platform (promote openness in scientific communication, particularly the peer review process) and how it can be used for journals, events, teaching and more. We also talk about open source and the benefits and hurdles open science platforms face.

@oatp

"Reviewed Preprint"

Sounds interesting.

#openreview

Its 2022 and the fact that some conferences (looking at you, *CL) still use #SoftConf is beyond me. Its like a 1990's website: hard to navigate for reviewers, I'm certain its also hard for ACs. Why not just switch to #OpenReview?

@nsaphra i think #OpenReview should enable an upvote/downvote feature - last I heard from them they were working on something similar. Conferences like ICLR already allow public comments during review, but its public nature doesn’t allow anonymous criticism (which is good imo, as it helps weed out trolls). A reddit style voting feature might allow an AC to take account of these issues.
