What is the impact factor of Robotics and Autonomous Systems journal?
In the case of journals with a closed access policy (ie, pay-per-article model), it represents the impact that one has as a member to publish in the journal.
The impact factor is an indication of journal prestige and as a metric of scientific journal quality. In our case, IF@10 represents the average impact of our journal in a given year and by author, which we believe is useful for assessing the impact of our articles. If we look into this figure, you can observe that our journal, published by ACM CICLOPEDIA, has, on average, 9 authors each year, reaching the same prestige as journals of renowned institutions such as IEEE and Computer.png)
Figure 1: Average Impact Factor per author.png) Figure 2: Average Impact Factor per paper. (2018) We have a strong belief that our average IF@10 over a 12 year period indicates that the ACM CICLOPEDIA journal offers high prestige to our authors by offering free publication in the prestigious journal and that, besides being a great achievement in an institutional context, it also demonstrates the contribution of our team to the field of science. What is a prestige journal? When it comes to scientific publications, prestige depends on the journal as well as on the scientific level of the publications contained in it. A high IF journal is equivalent to a university or high-level institution and it is expected that papers published in these journals show very high quality. On the other hand, it is expected that a high IF journal also has a large set of publications with little technical and deep science.
Most of the time, the papers with a low IF are of average quality.
What is the difference between autonomous system and robotics?
I prefer this definition, from a book: Autonomous robot is a robot that can take its own decision.
It does not depend on human direction to achieve its task. Usually robot use this term as the robots don't act independently of any kind of other robot or human. In many case they use it for robots which is capable of performing some task without the need of human assistance.
Robotics is a branch of computer science, which studies the application of computers to machines. Robotic systems have their own set of programming language and they need a robot that can carry out the programmed task in order to make the robot "robotic". So robotics is a subset of computer science.
What is the acceptance rate for Robotics and Autonomous Systems?
I can't seem to find any recent statistics on the website.
I don't think there is a single number for that. I think the best number you can get is the number of people applying per year. In the last 5 years or so, it has been in the hundreds. The number of people applying has increased as the job market has improved. The average number of people applying has been growing, but not necessarily at a steady rate.
For example, if you look at the job openings in the field, you'll see that there are about as many openings now as there were a couple years ago. The real question is: how many people are applying? What other factors would influence the number of applicants? It's hard to know what the acceptance rate is because it depends on the year and the department. In the past, it's been a few percent, and I would expect it to stay around that level. There is no official statistic for the acceptance rate for the robotics and autonomous systems masters program. We have no idea how many people apply each year. I think it is safe to assume it's in the hundreds.
