As mentioned in
Introduction to the ICME2010 Special Issue (pp. 518-529), the reviewing procedure is very rigorous:
- 630 regular papers and 48 special session papers submitted to the ICME 2010 conference
- 180 regular papers and 36 special session papers were included
- Among the regular paper submissions, the top 15% were accepted as oral presentations
- Among them, 59 papers submitted an extended version to IEEE TMM ICME special issue
- only 15 papers that received an AQ decision (Accept with Mandatory Minor Revisions) were considered to be included in the special issue
The overall acceptance rate is 2.38%!!! (from conference submission to ICME special issue journal paper). My paper is so lucky to be one of them.
Thanks my two advisors, reviewers, professor Chia-Ping Chen, professor Hsuan-Tien Lin for revision and comments. Also thanks many MIR researchers that I have met at ISMIR 2009 for their useful comments.
