Correction / Expression of Concern / Retraction

The editorial board of the scientific proceedings  Transfer of innovative technologies adheres to international standards of publication ethics and the recommendations of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) regarding post-publication changes. Depending on the nature of the identified issues, the following mechanisms are applied.

Correction (Correction / Erratum)
In the event that significant errors are identified in a published article that may affect the reliability of the results, the integrity of the scientific record, or the reputation of the authors, the editorial board publishes an appropriate correction. Such a notice includes a description of the changes and a mandatory reference to the original publication.

Expression of Concern (Expression of Concern)
The editorial board may issue an expression of concern in cases where:

- there are reasonable suspicions of possible violations, but the available evidence is insufficient for retraction of the article;

- the research results raise doubts about their reliability, but the investigation is still ongoing;

- an investigation has been initiated, but its completion requires a significant amount of time.

Such a statement clearly outlines the nature of the problem, is published in open access, and includes a reference to the relevant article. In doing so, the editorial board follows COPE recommendations for preparing expressions of concern.

Retraction (Retraction)
In the scientific proceedings Transfer of innovative technologies , articles that have been officially retracted after publication are marked as “RETRACTED”. Grounds for retraction may include significant errors in calculations or experimental data, violations of copyright or principles of academic integrity, non-compliance with ethical standards, as well as other factors that call into question the reliability or scientific value of the results.

On the page of the retracted publication, the date and reason for retraction must be indicated. The full text of the article remains in the electronic archive of the proceedings with appropriate labeling and is not recommended for use as a reliable source or for scientific citation.
