First A submission (AAMAS): how much theory is enough when your experiments went sideways? [D]

Navigating the complexities of empirical MARL research, particularly under A* submission deadlines like AAMAS, often demands a careful balance between experimental rigor and theoretical grounding. A 2nd-year PhD candidate currently facing this challenge highlights a common predicament: experiments yielding nuanced results and a subsequent struggle to formulate robust theory. Recognizing the potential pitfalls of HARKing and data anomalies, the post seeks advice on acceptable theory depth at A* venues and strategies for salvaging a project timeline.

Pattern Recognition (Elsevier): "With Editor" status date changed, but status didn't. Is this normal? [R]

Many researchers encounter unexpected nuances within Elsevier's Editorial Manager system. A recent query highlights a common observation: the status date updating while the visible status—in this case, "With Editor" for a *Pattern Recognition* manuscript—remains unchanged. While this can be initially perplexing, it’s often a procedural artifact rather than an indication of stalled progress. To understand typical timelines after this stage, and broader considerations within AI research, explore our related article, "NeurIPS 2026 AI-generated reviews," for further insights.
