AI identifies over 1,000 fake scientific journals in US-led academic publishing study. (AI Image) A team of computer scientists at the University of Colorado Boulder has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) tool designed to detect predatory scientific journals. These journals often charge authors high fees to publish research without conducting proper peer review.The AI system analysed the websites of 15,200 …

About 1,000 of a set of 15,000 open access scientific journals appear to exist mainly to extract fees from naive academics. A trio of computer scientists from the University of Colorado Boulder, Syracuse University, and China’s Eastern Institute of Technology (EIT) arrived at this figure after building a machine learning classifier to help identify “questionable” journals and then conducting a …
