Use when reasoning about IROS peer review — the PaperPlaza Associate-Editor/Editor pipeline, the traditional no-rebuttal single-notification model, how the video and embodied evidence steer reviewers, the 2026 double-anonymous posture, decision criteria for systems papers, and IEEE Xplore proceedings outcomes.

# IROS Review Process

Use this to reason about review-stage strategy. Reopen the current CFP, PaperPlaza instructions, and any
reviewer guidelines before making process claims — IROS review mechanics are set per edition by the
co-sponsoring IEEE/RSJ committee.

## Process model

- Submission and review run on **PaperPlaza**. Papers are handled by an **Associate Editor** under an
  **Editor**, who assign and synthesize reviews; there is no standing editor-in-chief for the conference.
- Reviewers are **embodied-systems researchers**. They weigh hardware, task distributions, trial counts,
  failure analysis, and sim-to-real honesty at least as much as a clean plot.
- The **video is read as evidence**: many reviewers watch it before the text, so a weak or misleading
  video colors the whole review.
