Artificial intelligence, Computer vision, Robot, Control engineering and Control theory are the subjects of interest in Journal of robotics and mechatronics. Most of the Artificial intelligence studies addressed also intersect with Pattern recognition. Issues in Robot were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Simulation and Human–computer interaction.
Journal of robotics and mechatronics explores research in Control engineering and the adjacent study of Control (management). Journal of robotics and mechatronics focuses on different Mobile robot studies like Robot control and Mobile robot navigation.
The published papers mostly deal with topics like Control engineering, Robot, Artificial intelligence, Simulation and Computer vision. The works on Control engineering tackled in the most cited papers bring together disciplines like Mechanism (engineering), Pneumatic actuator, Actuator, Control theory and Control (management). The Robot research tackled in the most cited papers is interrelated with Human–computer interaction which concerns subjects like Humanoid robot.
The foci of the journal are Artificial intelligence, Robot, Computer vision, Physical medicine and rehabilitation and Control theory. The journal connects research in Artificial intelligence with the related topic of Pattern recognition. Robot research featured in Journal of robotics and mechatronics incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Simulation and Human–computer interaction.
The concepts on Computer vision presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including Control (management), Teleoperation and Mobile robot. The Physical medicine and rehabilitation study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Rehabilitation. Journal of robotics and mechatronics focused on Control theory research but expanded to cover Mechanism (engineering).
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Journal of robotics and mechatronics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Journal of robotics and mechatronics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 64.96% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 39.02% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 7.32% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 21.95% of all publications and 31.71% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
