Hello First, we are very grateful for the consideration of our paper. Before starting the review process, we need to make some minor revisions to our paper to solve problems like an undefined reference. However, we need an editor to be assigned. (We have suggested @arfon, Mr. Smith)

Regards, Mir

[arfon]

:wave: @mir-am - thanks for your submission to JOSS. Please go ahead and make the changes you need to for your paper and ask @whedon to recompile your paper here with the command whedon generate pdf.

However, we need an editor to be assigned. (We have suggested @arfon, Mr. Smith)

I probably won't edit this submission - it may take another few days for an editor to be assigned.

[mir-am]

@arfon - Thanks for replying. We carefully revised our paper and would like to assign an editor for consideration of the paper

[cMadan]

@mir-am, thank you for your submission. Do you have any suggestions for reviewers? (See first comment in this issue for more information.)

[cMadan]

@arfon, it seems that whedon updated the first comment with me as editor, but didn't 'acknowledge' the command or assign me to the issue in Github. Has anything changed with how it's supposed to do that...?

[mir-am]

@whedon assign @cMadan as editor

We thank you for the consideration of our paper. @cMadan - @arfon - How can we add a caption to a table in our paper?

[mir-am]

@mir-am, thank you for your submission. Do you have any suggestions for reviewers? (See first comment in this issue for more information.)

We suggest @glemaitre for reviewing our research work.

@mir-am, this should do it: https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#tables

OK, the editor is @cMadan

[cMadan]

@arfon, not sure what happened earlier, but didn't seem like @whedon acted properly earlier. This time it worked though.

Weird. Not sure. Seems like a minor hiccup...

[cMadan]

@glemaitre, would you be interested and available to review this submission? Thank you for your consideration!

[glemaitre]

@cMadan I'm sorry but I will not be able to review right now. I am lacking personal time to make the review and I don't want to be the latent factor.

[mir-am]

Hi We would like to suggest @rougier for reviewing our research work. We also welcome reviewer suggestions from the editor.

[cMadan]

@mir-am, I am asking around for additional reviewers and hopefully someone will volunteer.

I was looking at the figures in the paper, are the SVM and TwinSVM illustrations based on the same data?

[mir-am]

@mir-am, I am asking around for additional reviewers and hopefully someone will volunteer.

I was looking at the figures in the paper, are the SVM and TwinSVM illustrations based on the same data?

Thanks. The dataset for both illustrations is nearly the same. Data points are randomly selected from an artificial dataset. However, we can change the two illustrations by training both classifiers on the exact same dataset.

[rougier]

I can review but it'll take me some time (3/4 weeks) because I'm a bit busy right now.

[cMadan]

@mir-am, I think it would be better if they are the exact same, thanks!

@rougier, that sounds fine to me. I won't start the review yet in case someone else is also able/interested to review, but if you could comment here when your free, I'll start the review even if no one else has volunteered.

[mir-am]

@cMadan We revised the paper and added new illustrations of SVM and TwinSVM based on the exact same dataset.

@arfon @cMadan The paper successfully compiled on my machine using Pandoc. However, whedon cannot compile the paper and produced above error.

[arfon]

Looks like this is a bug with our recently updated LaTeX template. I'll work on fixing this shortly.

@arfon Thanks for fixing the error.

We would like to start the review process if possible.

[arfon]

We would like to start the review process if possible.

@mir-am - @cMadan is still looking for reviewers here I think.

[cMadan]

@mir-am, yes, I still need to find someone to review the submission.

[cMadan]

@raamana, would you be interested and available to review this submission?

@arokem, do you have any suggestions for others who may be suitable reviewers here?

[raamana]

Thanks Chris, happy to review, this is an interesting and useful tool. However, due to prior commitments etc, I may take 4-8 weeks.

[cMadan]

@raamana, thanks! I'll see if @arokem has any suggestions, otherwise will ping you here in a few weeks and see when you're ready to start.

[raamana]

Sounds good. I'm unsubscribing for now. Please mention me so I get pinged.

[labarba]

👋 @rougier In your comment here 28 days ago you said you might be able to review this submission for JOSS? It's still waiting for reviewer assignment. Can you help us?

[labarba]

I wonder if @stefanv could help here ... Stefan: are you able to review this submission for JOSS?

[stefanv]

I'd be happy to!

[labarba]

@whedon assign @stefanv as reviewer
