Scope: The Journal of Imaging Science and Technology (JIST) is dedicated to the advancement of imaging science knowledge, the
practical applications of such knowledge, and how imaging science relates to other fields of study. The pages of this journal are open
to reports of new theoretical or experimental results, and to comprehensive reviews. Only original manuscripts that have not been
previously published nor currently submitted for publication elsewhere should be submitted. Prior publication does not refer to conference abstracts, paper summaries, or non-reviewed proceedings, but it is expected that Journal articles will expand in scope the
presentation of such preliminary communication. Please include keywords on your title and abstract page.
Editorial Process/Submission of Papers for Review: All submitted manuscripts are subject to peer review. (If a manuscript appears
better suited to publication in the Journal of Electronic Imaging, published jointly by IS&T and SPIE, the editor will make this recommendation.) To expedite the peer review process, please recommend two or three competent, independent reviewers. The editorial
staff, will take these under consideration, but is not obligated to use them.
Manuscript Guidelines: Please follow these guidelines when preparing accepted manuscripts for submission.
• Manuscripts should be double-spaced, single-column, and numbered. It is the responsibility of the author to prepare a succinct,
well-written, paper composed in proper English. JIST generally follows the guidelines found in the AIP Style Manual, available
from the American Institute of Physics.
• Documents may be created in Microsoft Word, WordPerfect, or LaTeX/REVTeX.
• Manuscripts must contain a title page that lists the paper title, full name(s) of the author(s), and complete affiliation/address for
each author. Include an abstract that summarizes objectives, methodology, results, and their significance; 150 words maximum.
Provide at least four key words.
• Figures should conform to the standards set forth at www.aip.org/epub/submitgraph.html.
• Equations should be numbered sequentially with Arabic numerals in parentheses at the right margin. Be sure to define symbols
that might be confused (such as ell/one, nu/vee, omega/w).
• For symbols, units, and abbreviations, use SI units (and their standard abbreviations) and metric numbers. Symbols, acronyms,
etc., should be defined on their first occurrence.
• Illustrations: Number all figures, graphs, etc. consecutively and provide captions. Figures should be created in such a way that they
remain legible when reduced, usually to single column width (3.3 inches/8.4 cm); see also www.aip.org/epub/submitgraph.html for
guidance. Illustrations must be submitted as .tif or .eps files at full size and 600 dpi; grayscale and color images should be at 300
dpi. JIST does not accept .gif or .jpeg files. Original hardcopy graphics may be sent for processing by AIP, the production house
for JIST. (See note below on color and supplemental illustrations.)
• References should be numbered sequentially as citations appear in the text, format as superscripts, and list at the end of the
document using the following formats:
• Journal articles: Author(s) [first/middle name/initial(s), last name], “title of article (optional),” journal name (in italics), ISSN
number (e.g. for JIST citation, ISSN: 1062-3701), volume (bold): first page number, year (in parentheses).
• Books: Author(s) [first/ middle name/initial(s), last name], title (in italics), (publisher, city, and year in parentheses) page
reference.
• Conference proceedings are normally cited in the Book format, including publisher and city of publication (Springfield, VA, for
all IS&T conferences), which is often different from the conference venue.

be negotiated or waived. Authors may also choose to have their figures appear in color online and in grayscale in the printed journal.
There is no additional charge for this, however those who choose this option are responsible for ensuring that the captions and descriptions in the text are readable in both color and black-and-white as the same file will be used in the online and print versions of
the journal. Only figures saved as TIFF/TIF or EPS files will be accepted for posting. Color illustrations may be also submitted as supplemental material for posting on the IS&T website for a flat fee of $100 for up to five files.
Website Posting of Supplemental Materials: Authors may also submit additional (supplemental) materials related to their articles
for posting on the IS&T Website. Examples of such materials are charts, graphs, illustrations, or movies that further explain the science or technology discussed in the paper. Supplemental materials will be posted for a flat fee of $100 for up to five files. For each additional file, a $25 fee will be charged. Fees must be received before supplemental materials will be posted. As a matter of editorial
policy, appendices are normally treated as supplemental material.
Submission of Accepted Manuscripts: Author(s) will receive notification of acceptance (or rejection) and reviewers’ reports. Those
whose manuscripts have been accepted for publication will receive correspondence informing them of the issue for which the paper
is tentatively scheduled, links to copyright and page charge forms, and detailed instructions for submitting accepted manuscripts. A
duly signed transfer of copyright agreement form is required for publication
in this journal. No claim is made to original US Government works.

From the Editor
Recently I attended an intellectual property workshop
led by Catherine Madden Trindle of San Mateo County,
California. As a journal editor, my particular interest was in
copyright protection, which was addressed in depth in this
seminar. As an industrial researcher, I had been quite aware
of issues of patent protection, but in the area of copyright
there were a number of aspects of which I had not heretofore been aware. For example, since 1978 copyright is implied for any tangible work (image, text, etc.) that is introduced into the “public forum,” e.g., posted on the web. Thus
there is an assumed copyright on every e-mail you write!
The copyright holder, whose permission must be obtained
for reuse of the material, may be the creator, publisher, or, in
the case of works made for hire, i.e., for most of us, the
employer of the creator. In the case of our journal, the copyright holder for all articles is, by agreement with the submitting authors, the publisher, IS&T.
I was also surprised to learn that US copyright law applies to uses of all material in the United States, even though
the material may be of foreign origin and copyright may
have been granted or registered in another country. Material
which is in public domain in another country, e.g., government documents, may be considered copyrighted with respect to use within the United States, where our journal is
published, and appropriate permissions for use must be
obtained.
Copyright protection applies to both printed and electronically distributed versions of the material. Copyright
means that the copyright holder, in the case of this and of
most scientific journals, the publisher, has exclusive legal
rights to reproduce, prepare derivative works (quotations,
reviews, etc.), copy, and display, e.g., in poster presentations,
either whole articles or parts thereof. Original authors or
their employers are not exempted from the need to get permission from the copyright holder to use material to which
they have transferred copyright (conference extended abstracts, journal articles, etc.).
Specific applications to our journal include a policy,
supported by the tradition of scientific publication, of not
republishing in the journal articles which represent verbatim
repetition of extended conference abstracts. Conferences
may be co-sponsored by other scientific societies, who may
or may not share in copyright ownership of the abstracts
depending on the specific agreement. Republication of such
material in an exclusively IS&T journal would be a violation
of the rights of the other copyright holders. An additional
relevant application is the case of review articles; it is common practice, and often fundamental to the effective presentation of the scientific material, to use figures and graphs
which originally appeared in cited literature—literature to
J. Imaging Sci. Technol.
which other publishers hold copyright. In this case, permission of the original copyright holder is required in writing,
and to protect IS&T we require that the written permission
be submitted to the editorial office along with the
manuscript.
There are, however, exceptions to copyright exclusivity.
For scientific authors, an important copyright limitation is
embodied in the doctrine of fair use, which allows the reuse
of portions of copyrighted works, e.g., graphs or figures,
quotations, etc., for personal and for nonprofit educational
purposes. Such use might include preparation of a review
article, presenting an academic seminar based on or including material from a copyrighted book, website, or article.
The amount or “substantiality” of the portion used becomes
a critical issue; in academic circles an amount of an original
work that can be fairly used is generally taken as not more
than 10%. With respect to the ethics of such reuse, Ms.
Trindle pointed out that, “Even if it would fall under the
classification of fair use, courtesy should dictate that you
contact the copyright holder and ask for permission to use
[the material].”
A particularly egregious example of copyright infringement which is currently rampant is the practice of forwarding “interesting” websites or e-mails to extended lists of correspondents from one’s address book. It seems I receive one
or two of these each day! These websites and e-mails are
copyrighted works which, by their existence on the web, have
entered the public forum. It is a violation of courtesy, ethical
standards, and copyright law to forward them on, unless the
criteria for fair use are met, or the original creator’s permission obtained.
As a practical consideration, how does a scientific author go about obtaining permission to use copyrighted material? Usually the publisher of print or web-based material is
clearly identified on the material, e.g., inside front cover of
this journal, and the potential user can start the process by
contacting this publisher. In some cases the publisher is not
clearly identified or no contact information is given. In this
case the author can refer to the Copyright Clearance Center,
www.copyright.com/ccc/home.do. Guidelines for obtaining
permission to use copyrighted material are also available
from the Social Science Research Network, www.ssrn.com.
Further information on copyrights in general, including
guidelines for fair use, and US copyright law in particular
can be obtained from the US Copyright Office,
www.copyright.gov, and from the Association of Research
Libraries, www.knowyourcopyrights,org/.
