Generative AI Use Policy

The Editorial Board of the Collection of Scientific Papers “Railbound Rolling Stock” recognizes the growing role of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in scientific research and academic publishing. The use of such tools is permitted solely as an auxiliary instrument (for example, for language editing, text structuring, data analysis, or the preparation of illustrations) and must comply with the principles of academic integrity and international standards of publication ethics.

If generative AI tools are used in the preparation of a manuscript, authors must clearly disclose this in the relevant section of the paper. Artificial intelligence cannot be listed as an author of a scientific work, as it cannot assume responsibility for the content of the publication. Full responsibility for the accuracy of research results, the originality of the text, and the proper citation of sources lies entirely with the authors.

The Editorial Board reserves the right to verify submitted manuscripts for compliance with the principles of academic integrity. The use of artificial intelligence to generate falsified data, manipulate research results, commit plagiarism, or produce text without proper disclosure of the use of such tools is considered a violation of publication ethics and may serve as grounds for rejection or retraction of the article.
