Highly cited researcher banned from journal board for citation abuse. I put this here because K-C Chou wrote several papers with and appears to have been a mentor of sorts to Bin Liu, who plagiarized our gkm-SVM paper as described in the several items below. See also the original reporting from Bioinformatics and Journal of Theoretical Biology. I'm glad K-C Chou finally got called out on his gross citation manipulation, but the problem is broader than just these two journals. He and his students were and still are on the boards of many other journals and continue their citation inflation through mechanisms not discussed in these articles. The scientific publishing industry has been manipulated by their lack of attention to these problems.
