IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems

Information for Authors

IEEE Author Center

IEEE has constructed a one-stop shop of general author information with valuable data about the entire authoring/publishing environment.  - IEEE Author Center

Scope

IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems (TFS) is published monthly.

TFS will consider high quality papers that deal with the theory, design or applications of fuzzy systems ranging from hardware to software. Authors are encouraged to submit articles that disclose significant technical achievements, exploratory developments, or performance studies of fielded systems based on fuzzy models. Emphasis will be given to engineering applications.

Types of Contributions

Full papers

Short papers

Survey papers

Letters (Comments on Published Papers)

Two Part papers

Full papers are characterized by novel contributions of archival nature in developing theories and/or innovative applications of fuzzy sets and systems. The contribution should not be of incremental nature, but must present a well-founded and conclusive treatment of a problem. Well organized survey of literature on topics of current interest may also be considered. Usually a full paper will not exceed 10 pages but can be a maximum of 15 pages (charges apply pages 11-15 of $200 per page).

Short papers report sufficiently interesting new theories and/or developments, results, simulations, experiments on previously published work in fuzzy sets/systems and related areas. For example, an extension of previous results or algorithms, innovative applications of a known approach to interesting problems, interesting theorems on error bounds of fuzzy algorithms, etc. The contribution should be conclusive and useful. Usually a short paper will not exceed 6 pages but can be a maximum of 9 pages (charges apply pages 7-9 of $200 per page).

Survey papers are well-focused manuscripts that puts recent progress into a broader perspective and accurately assesses the limits of existing theories. Usually a survey paper will not exceed 15 pages but can be a maximum of 21 pages (charges apply pages 16-21 of $200 per page).

Letters will be reserved for just that, i.e., mostly for "Comments on Published Papers" (CoP) and the authors' response, along with occasional letters to, or interesting tidbits for, the TFS readership. A letter must not exceed 3 pages. These are processed in the following manner:

CoP is reviewed by one of the authors of the paper commented on and at least two independent reviewers.

If reviewer suggests a clear acceptance or rejection – decision made.

If the EiC finds the CoP worthy of publication but there is a disagreement between the authors of the paper commented on and other reviewers then the authors of the commented on paper should be given a chance to submit a rebuttal paper (RP).

The RP will be reviewed by an author of the CoP and two other independent reviewers.

If review suggests a clear acceptance or rejection – decision made, unless the Editor-in-Chief makes the decision and that is final.

If both CoP and RP agree, they will be published in the same issue.

Authors must decide whether their submission is a FULL or SHORT paper at the time of submission.  Papers cannot be transferred between the categories during the review process.  At the end of the review process if it is recommended that a paper should be a different category, it is the author(s) decision whether to resubmit.

Review management for full and short papers is under the direction of an Associate Editor, who will normally solicit 3/4 reviews before a decision is reached. The articles in this journal are peer reviewed in accordance with the requirements set forth in the IEEE Publication Services and Products Board Operations Manual. Each published article was reviewed by a minimum of two independent reviewers using a single-blind peer review process, where the identities of the reviewers are not known to the authors, but the reviewers know the identities of the authors.

Two Part papers consisting of more than one part will only be considered in exceptional circumstances. Multi-part papers will not be allowed simply to get around page-length limitations or over-length page charges.  Any authors wishing to submit a paper in more than one part should request permission (prior to submission) via the editorial office - please email all parts, as separate pdf documents, to clair.morton@nottingham.ac.uk

Over Length Page Charge (New Submissions from 1.1.17)

If a paper has incurred over-length page charges, an invoice will be sent to the author after the paper has been processed, edited and in the queue to be published.

Categories of Contributions

Regular category (Non-application)

Application category

Note that the category of a manuscript is an exclusive function of its content, not its length. As described in its scope, TFS considers articles on engineering applications. At the time of submission an author has to specify whether the manuscript should be treated as an application category.

An innovative application must satisfy at least one of the following requirements:

A new application that has not previously been explored using fuzzy approaches. The performance of the fuzzy approach should normally be compared with other state-of-the-art approaches.

Applications in which the use of fuzzy models produces better results than previously published techniques in the same area, in terms of performance, efficiency (speed / space) or other aspects.

Implementation of fuzzy systems and/or algorithms in an application area, in which there is significant novel contribution in the methodological approaches used.

In each of the three cases, the manuscript must have a very clear description of the problem, its formulation, a comprehensive analysis of the results, and adequate details of the implementation protocols (including, ideally, the data used) so that the research may be reproduced by others.

Submission of Manuscripts

Please log on to http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tfs-ieee and follow the instructions to create an account (if a first time user) and to submit your manuscript.

Manuscripts should be in our 2 column format. Please see the link below: https://journals.ieeeauthorcenter.ieee.org/create-your-ieee-journal-article/
