The Journal of Soft Computing and Artificial Intelligence (JSCAI) is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal dedicated to publishing high-quality scholarly research in soft computing, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and intelligent systems.
The main aim of JSCAI is to provide an academic platform for theoretical, methodological, experimental, and applied studies that contribute to the development and use of intelligent computational methods.
The journal seeks to support research that advances scientific knowledge, proposes innovative computational approaches, and demonstrates the relevance of artificial intelligence and soft computing techniques to real-world problems.
JSCAI encourages submissions that present clear research questions, sound methodology, reproducible results, and significant academic or practical contributions.
The journal particularly welcomes interdisciplinary studies that connect artificial intelligence, machine learning, data science, optimization, decision support, and intelligent systems with applications in science, engineering, health, education, industry, cybersecurity, and social domains.
JSCAI aims to contribute to the international dissemination of knowledge by supporting open access publishing, ethical research practices, transparent peer review, and responsible use of emerging technologies.
JSCAI publishes Research Articles and Review Articles in the broad fields of soft computing, artificial intelligence, machine learning, computational intelligence, and intelligent systems.
The journal considers manuscripts in, but not limited to, the following areas:
Soft computing theories, models, and applications
Artificial intelligence and intelligent systems
Machine learning and deep learning
Fuzzy systems, fuzzy logic, and fuzzy decision-making
Neural networks and neuro-fuzzy systems
Evolutionary computation, swarm intelligence, and metaheuristic optimization
Hybrid intelligent systems
Data science, data mining, and knowledge discovery
Natural language processing and computational linguistics
Computer vision, image processing, and pattern recognition
Robotics, autonomous systems, and intelligent control
Decision support systems and multi-criteria decision-making
Explainable, trustworthy, ethical, and responsible artificial intelligence
AI-based optimization, prediction, classification, clustering, and forecasting methods
Applications of artificial intelligence in cybersecurity, healthcare, education, energy, manufacturing, finance, agriculture, IoT, smart cities, engineering, and social sciences
The journal welcomes manuscripts that provide theoretical innovation, methodological advancement, experimental validation, comparative analysis, or significant applied contribution.
Submitted manuscripts should clearly explain their research gap, methodology, findings, limitations, and contribution to the relevant field.
JSCAI does not normally consider manuscripts that are purely descriptive, tutorial in nature, outside the fields of soft computing and artificial intelligence, or lacking a clear scientific contribution.
