Chinese nexus/network in A* conferences rejecting non chinese papers [D]
Our take
In recent discussions surrounding A* conferences, concerns have emerged regarding a perceived network among Chinese researchers that may favor their own submissions over others. Reports suggest that this network, facilitated by a popular mobile app, engages in nepotism, raising questions about fairness in the review process. For instance, at IJCAI 26, one individual encountered hostility from a reviewer who was displeased for not citing a paper authored by a fellow Chinese researcher. Have you experienced similar issues in your own submissions? Share your insights.
Recently lot of people are coming forward that chinese have strong network and are doing nepotism and supporting each other through a well known mobile app they use. if true this is big, I also encountered this issue in IJCAI 26. Please share if you have faced this issue before
ex in my case : the reviewer was angry because i didnt cite a paper, whose main author was also chinese.
