Journal Title：Journal Of The Royal Statistical Society Series B-statistical Methodology

Series B (Statistical Methodology) aims to publish high quality papers on the methodological aspects of statistics and data science more broadly. The objective of papers should be to contribute to the understanding of statistical methodology and/or to develop and improve statistical methods; any mathematical theory should be directed towards these aims. The kinds of contribution considered include descriptions of new methods of collecting or analysing data, with the underlying theory, an indication of the scope of application and preferably a real example. Also considered are comparisons, critical evaluations and new applications of existing methods, contributions to probability theory which have a clear practical bearing (including the formulation and analysis of stochastic models), statistical computation or simulation where original methodology is involved and original contributions to the foundations of statistical science. Reviews of methodological techniques are also considered. A paper, even if correct and well presented, is likely to be rejected if it only presents straightforward special cases of previously published work, if it is of mathematical interest only, if it is too long in relation to the importance of the new material that it contains or if it is dominated by computations or simulations of a routine nature.

B 系列（統計方法論）旨在更廣泛地發表有關統計學和數據科學方法論方面的高質量論文。論文的目標應該是促進對統計方法論的理解和/或開發和改進統計方法；任何數學理論都應以這些目標為導向。考慮的貢獻類型包括對收集或分析數據的新方法的描述，以及基礎理論、應用范圍的指示，最好是真實的例子。還考慮了現有方法的比較、批判性評估和新應用、對具有明顯實際意義的概率論的貢獻（包括隨機模型的制定和分析）、涉及原始方法的統計計算或模擬以及對統計科學基礎的原創貢獻。方法論技術的評論也會被考慮。一篇論文，即使正確且表達良好，如果它只展示以前發表作品的簡單特例，如果它只具有數學興趣，如果它相對于它所包含的新材料的重要性來說太長，如果它主要是常規計算或模擬，它也可能被拒絕。

Journal Of The Royal Statistical Society Series B-statistical Methodology創刊于1998年，由Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋數學 - 統計學與概率論全領域，在行業領域中學術影響力很大，屬于TOP期刊，國際一流期刊，關注度和專業度非常高，所以對原創文章要求創新性很高，過審難度很高，如果您有志于TOP期刊，建議關注此刊。平均審稿速度 12周，或約稿 ，影響因子指數3.1，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
