SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

ABS-Journal helps researchers identify suitable publication venues for manuscripts by leveraging a local Chartered ABS AJG dataset, enabling offline, deterministic journal recommendations and optional data updates.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Hybrid workflow: combines local AJG data with optional AI-assisted filtering to improve match quality without external API calls.
  • Offline-first: relies on assets/data/ajg_<year>_journals_core_custom.csv and local candidate pools to avoid network access.
  • Use Case: a researcher wants to shortlist target journals for a paper on trade policy and needs a ranked list with Field and rationale.

Quick Start

Run the hybrid workflow with your paper title to generate local AJG-based journal recommendations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get journal recommendations for manuscript submission offline?

The process enforces easy, medium, and hard gating levels alongside a 1:1 rating balance to ensure diverse journal recommendations. This filtering mechanism prevents an over-concentration of suggestions in any single rating tier.

Can I update the local AJG dataset used for journal recommendations?

Yes, the local AJG dataset can be refreshed when updates are needed. The offline-first design relies on a specific CSV file within the assets directory, which can be replaced or updated to maintain current journal ranking data.

Does hybrid AI journal recommendation work without external API calls?

Yes, hybrid AI journal recommendation works entirely offline by combining local AJG data with an optional internal AI filtering pass. This approach improves match quality for your manuscript without relying on external API calls or network access.

How to shortlist target journals for a paper using local data?

You can shortlist target journals by running the hybrid workflow with your paper title, which matches your research against local AJG candidate pools. It outputs a detailed Markdown report containing the journal name, Field, and rationale for each recommendation.

What format are offline journal recommendation results provided in?

Offline journal recommendation results are provided in a detailed Markdown report. This output format includes the ranked list of journals, their respective fields, and the rationale behind each suggestion based on the local AJG dataset.
