1. Disclosure of AI-Generated Content
Authors must disclose any AI-generated content, including: Text, code, figures, images
Disclosures should be made in the Acknowledgments section, and must specify:
• Which AI system/tool was used
• Which parts of the manuscript were AI-generated
• How the tool was used in the research or writing process
2. AI for Language Editing
If AI is used only for grammar, spelling, tone, or formatting improvements on human-written text, disclosure is not strictly required, but still recommended for transparency.
3. Prohibited AI Uses
The following AI uses are not allowed:
• Submitting AI-generated content outside the scope of legitimate experimental analysis
• Using confidential manuscripts as input to public AI tools (breach of confidentiality)
• Fabrication or manipulation of: Data, figures and code (Especially when it misrepresents or distorts research findings)
4. Human Accountability
• Authors are fully responsible for the accuracy, originality, and ethical integrity of their manuscripts.
• AI contributions do not remove author liability, even if the AI generated specific sections.
• All AI outputs must be verified for truthfulness and proper attribution.
• IEEE aligns with COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) standards on authorship and misconduct.
5. No AI Authorship
• AI tools cannot be listed as authors or co-authors.
• Only human contributors meet authorship requirements due to legal accountability and ethical responsibility.
Similarity Policy and Artificial Intelligent (AI)
Authors are required to ensure that the similarity rating of your manuscript is less than 20%. Submissions with a similarity rating of 20% or above will be dropped and no longer considered for iSemantic 2026.
Isemantic supports the responsible and transparent use of AI tools in scholarly publishing. Any AI-generated content must be disclosed in the Acknowledgments section. Authors must specify which AI system was used, what sections it contributed to, and how it was applied. In accordance with IEEE policy.
AI used solely for language, grammar, tone, or formatting improvements on human-written text is generally exempt from strict disclosure, though ISemantic still recommends disclosure in these cases to promote transparency.
Prohibited uses include submitting AI-generated content that is not part of legitimate experimental work, uploading confidential manuscripts to public AI tools, or using AI to fabricate or manipulate research data, figures, or code.
Authors are fully accountable for all content, including sections assisted by AI. They must ensure accuracy, originality, and ethical compliance.
AI tools cannot be credited as authors, as authorship requires human accountability for content accuracy and integrity.
