Issues in Artificial intelligence were discussed in the published articles, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Firefly algorithm and Pattern recognition. The works on Human–computer interaction tackled in the journal articles bring together disciplines like Structural equation modeling, Multimedia and Simulation.

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Operating system
  • Software

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The journal mainly deals with areas of study such as Artificial intelligence, Pattern recognition, Development (topology), Computer security and Romanian. Topics in Artificial intelligence explored in Studies in Informatics and Control were investigated in conjunction with research in Machine learning, Link (knot theory) and Computer vision. Tracking (particle physics) and Watershed research are fields of study within Computer vision but they also intertwine with concepts in Pothole.

The journal facilitates discussions on Pattern recognition that incorporate concepts from other fields like Control (management) and Variable length. Development (topology) research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including Crowdsourcing, Automatic control, Human–computer interaction and Lexicon. In addition to Romanian research, it aims to explore topics under Hierarchical clustering, Poetry and Natural language processing.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • A Multi-Objective Marine Predator Optimizer for Optimal Techno-Economic Operation of AC/DC Grids (2 citations)
  • An Optimized Deep Learning Based Security Enhancement and Attack Detection on IoT Using IDS and KH-AES for Smart Cities (1 citations)
  • Collaborative Detection and Prevention of Errors and Conflicts in an Agricultural Robotic System (1 citations)

Papers citation over time

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 Studies in Informatics and Control (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Adriana Alexandru (10 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Edmundas Kazimieras Zavadskas (10 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Haoping Wang (10 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Gisli Thorsteinsson (8 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Mohamed Benrejeb (8 papers) absent at the last edition.

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 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.

Publication chance based on affiliation

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, 100.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, nan% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another nan% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included nan% of all publications and nan% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

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.

Returning Institution Index

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.

The experience to innovation index

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:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
