About the journal
|
To publish original and valuable papers in the field of classification, numerical taxonomy, multidimensional scaling and other ordination techniques, clustering, tree structures and other network models (with somewhat less emphasis on principal components analysis, factor analysis, and discriminant analysis), as well as associated models and algorithms for fitting them. Articles will support advances in methodology while demonstrating compelling substantive applications. Comprehensive review articles are also acceptable. Contributions will represent disciplines such as statistics, psychology, biology, information retrieval, anthropology, archeology, astronomy, business, chemistry, computer science, economics, engineering, geography, geology, linguistics, marketing, mathematics, medicine, political science, psychiatry, sociology, and soil science.
Published two times a year, Journal of Classification typically has four sections in each issue: articles, short notes and comments, software abstracts, and book reviews.

Instructions to Authors
|
This Journal is published twice yearly, and a typical issue will have four sections: articles, short notes and comments, software abstracts, and book reviews.
Submit four typewritten fully double-spaced, one-sided copies of the manuscript in English, using a font size of at least 12, with wide margins, including abstract (of at most 150 words), tables, figures, and a cover letter (with fax number and e-mail address, where available). The materials should be mailed in a securely fastened, heavy-duty envelope. Retain a copy for your own use. Since this journal uses "blind" reviewing, three of the submitted copies should have the author's identity deleted. Submission of a paper to this periodical will be assumed to imply that the manuscript represents original work not previously published and not being considered elsewhere for publication. Authors submitting a manuscript agree that the copyright for the article will be transferred to the publisher if and when the article is accepted for publication. Manuscripts will not be returned to authors.
If the manuscript is accepted for publication, authors should submit an IBM-formatted diskette or attachment via email, along with two paper copies for use in the final preparation. Authors of accepted papers are encouraged to submit Microsoft Word or LaTeX files; however WordPerfect files are also accepted. More detailed information on this Journal's LaTeX typesetting procedures can be obtained from www.pitt.edu/~csna/#joc, the CSNA World Wide Web server. Other file formats will be subject to a $10 US per page typesetting surcharge.
With the exception of the following details, the format will conform to the style guide of the American Statistical Association. (See Journal of the American Statistical Association, 1982, 77, 226-229.) In the bibliography, initials rather than actual names should be used for first and middle names of authors, the month of publication of journals should not be included unless every issue begins with page one, and for books having more than one edition, the specific edition should be given. A horizontal line should not replace authors' names for multiple references by the same authors; the names should be written each time. The first citation in the text to a paper with three or more co-authors should list all the names. Subsequent citations should give the first co-author's name followed by "et al." Citations to books or lengthy review papers for specific details and/or technical points should include page number(s) and/or chapter(s) in the citations. Note especially that no abbreviations whatsoever should be used in journal or book titles. Authors are strongly urged to check their references very carefully before submitting manuscripts so as to avoid excessive delays later, if the manuscript is accepted for publication.
This Journal requires an explicit description of appropriate types of data for proposed advances in methodology. Defining one or more data matrices as variables is highly recommended near the beginning of text in methodological contributions.
In manuscripts, it is crucial that vectors and matrices be clearly distinguishable from scalar variables. In the final version appearing in this Journal, the former will be set in bold and scalars in italics. Unless an author's word processing system can generate high quality bold and italic characters in a manuscript (and that quality is maintained after photocopying), it is better to underline scalars and to denote vectors and matrices with underline tildes. Letters other than Roman (e.g., Greek) should be identified in the margin on first occurrence and, if used extensively, a symbol list should be provided on a separate sheet. For equations requiring more than one line in this Journal, authors should indicate where breaks are to occur.
Manuscripts should include explicit instructions for approximate placement of tables and figures. In the final version, they will be photographed or scanned from originals provided by authors according to the following specifications:
Tables and figures must be typed on separate pages, one to a page, never on the same page as text. Authors should retain the originals of tables and figures; copies should be submitted with the manuscript. If accepted, the final version of the manuscript must include originals of tables and figures in a form suitable for photographic reproduction or scanning. (If a copy of a table or figure is submitted with the final version of a manuscript, the copy must not be made by xerographic means.) Because the maximum size of figures and tables is a 4.8-inch width x 6.8-inch height, it is critical that letters and numbers be large enough on the original copy to remain legible after reduction to this or possibly a smaller size.
Tables should be prepared with extra wide margins; layout should be compact and conserve space, so that reduction can be moderate. It may be necessary to print wide tables sideways (landscape) on the page. Tables are to be numbered with Arabic numerals and referred to in the text by number, e.g., Table 2. The title, double-spaced below the table number and appearing above the table itself, should have initial letters of principal words capitalized. Titles should be short; if two lines are required they should be single-spaced. Double horizontal lines should separate the heading from the subhead; a single line should appear at the bottom of the table. Footnotes referring to any part of the table should be single-spaced immediately below the table.
Captions for figures should be collected together on a separate page. For the convenience of referees, numbers of the figures should be written at the bottom of the front side on the copies, but never on the originals. If accepted, the final version of the paper must include original figures with authors' names, and manuscript and figure numbers written lightly in pencil on the back. Figures should be referred to in the text by number, e.g., Figure 3. Each figure caption, including the figure number and a succinct title, should be typed double-spaced on a separate sheet of paper. No such identification should appear on the front of the figure.
Color can be published in the electronic edition of the journal, at no charge to the author, if appropriate electronic files are provided. Color will only be included in the print edition when the author covers the additional expense of color printing. For an exact quote on color printing charges, please contact the Production Editor.

Guidelines for Electronically Produced Illustrations for Print
General
Send illustrations separately from the text (i.e. files should not be integrated with the text files). Always send printouts of all illustrations.
Vector (line) Graphics
Vector graphics exported from a drawing program should be stored in EPS format.
Suitable drawing program: Adobe Illustrator. For simple line art the following drawing programs are also acceptable: Corel Draw, Freehand, Canvas.
No rules narrower than .25 pt.
No gray screens paler than 15% or darker than 60%.
Screens meant to be differentiated from one another must differ by at least 15%.
Spreadsheet/Presentation Graphics
Most presentation programs (Excel, PowerPoint, Freelance) produce data that cannot be stored in an EPS format. Therefore graphics produced by these programs cannot be used for print.
Halftone Illustrations
Black & white and color illustrations should be saved in TIFF format.
Illustrations should be created using Adobe Photoshop whenever possible.
Scans*
Scanned reproductions of black and white photographs should be provided as 300 ppi TIFF files.
Scanned color illustrations should be provided as TIFF files scanned at a minimum of 300 ppi with a 24-bit color depth.
Line art should be provided as TIFF files at 600 ppi.
* We do prefer having the original art as our printers have drum scanners which allow for better reproduction of critical medical halftones.
Graphics from Videos
Separate files should be prepared for frames from a video that are to be printed in the journal. When preparing these files you should follow the same rules as listed under Halftone Illustrations.
Guidelines for Electronically Produced Illustrations for ONLINE
Video
Quicktime (.mov) is the preferred format, but .rm, .avi, .mpg, etc. are acceptable.
No video file should be larger than 2MB. To decrease the size of your file, consider changing one or more of the following variables: frame speed, number of colors/greys, viewing size (in pixels), or compression. Video is subject to Editorial review and approval.
