About this journal
Aims and scope
Please note, from 2022 the Print ISSN is not in active use as this journal is no longer published in print.
Applied Artificial Intelligence aims to address concerns in applied research and applications of artificial intelligence (AI). The journal also acts as a medium for exchanging ideas and thoughts about multidisciplinary impacts of AI research based on novel methods, techniques, and frameworks. Articles published in AAI highlight advances in uses of AI systems for introducing novel solutions in management, industry, engineering, health, administration, and education; evaluations of existing AI systems and tools, emphasizing comparative studies and user experiences; and the economic, social, and cultural impacts of AI. We welcome papers on key applications, highlighting methods, time schedules, person-months needed, and other relevant material.
Applied Artificial Intelligence accepts a wide range of topics, including but not limited to:
1. Applied Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
Investigating the applications of AI and machine learning techniques and methods within impactful scenarios.
2. Natural Language Processing and its applications
Exploring the state-of-the-art applications of Natural Language Processing, including novel frameworks and theories to enable impactful applications.
3. Generative AI
Advancing the use of Generative AI within various multidisciplinary fields and topics, such as business analytics, text, audio and image related appllications.
4. AI applications to Digital Health
Investigating impactful applications to Digital Health, including methods and techniques for reducing inefficiencies and cost whilst improving medical related systems, enhance patients’ care access, as well as medicine personalisation.
5. Engineering applications of AI, such as: robotics, smart manufacturing, smart agriculture
Exploring the applications of AI to the advancement of Industry 4.0, such as smart manufacturing and agriculture, as well as automated decision and cognitive systems applied to robotics.
All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial evaluation by the Editor and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert reviewers.

Understanding and using journal metrics
Journal metrics can be a useful tool for readers, as well as for authors who are deciding where to submit their next manuscript for publication. However, any one metric only tells a part of the story of a journal’s quality and impact. Each metric has its limitations which means that it should never be considered in isolation, and metrics should be used to support and not replace qualitative review.
We strongly recommend that you always use a number of metrics, alongside other qualitative factors such as a journal’s aims & scope, its readership, and a review of past content published in the journal. In addition, a single article should always be assessed on its own merits and never based on the metrics of the journal it was published in.
For more details, please read the Author Services guide to understanding journal metrics.
Journal metrics in brief
Usage and acceptance rate data above are for the last full calendar year and are updated annually in February. Speed data is updated every six months, based on the prior six months. Citation metrics are updated annually mid-year. Please note that some journals do not display all of the following metrics (find out why).
- Usage: the total number of times articles in the journal were viewed by users of Taylor & Francis Online in the previous calendar year, rounded to the nearest thousand.
Citation Metrics
- Impact Factor*: the average number of citations received by articles published in the journal within a two-year window. Only journals in the Clarivate Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE), Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI), Arts and Humanities Citation Index (AHCI) and the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) have an Impact Factor.
- Impact Factor Best Quartile*: the journal’s highest subject category ranking in the Journal Citation Reports. Q1 = 25% of journals with the highest Impact Factors.
- 5 Year Impact Factor*: the average number of citations received by articles in the journal within a five-year window.
- CiteScore (Scopus)†: the average number of citations received by articles in the journal over a four-year period.
- CiteScore Best Quartile†: the journal’s highest CiteScore ranking in a Scopus subject category. Q1 = 25% of journals with the highest CiteScores.
- SNIP (Source Normalized Impact per Paper): the number of citations per paper in the journal, divided by citation potential in the field.
- SJR (Scimago Journal Rank): Average number of (weighted) citations in one year, divided by the number of articles published in the journal in the previous three years.
Speed/acceptance
- From submission to first decision: the average (median) number of days for a manuscript submitted to the journal to receive a first decision. Based on manuscripts receiving a first decision in the last six months.
- From submission to first post-review decision: the average (median) number of days for a manuscript submitted to the journal to receive a first decision if it is sent out for peer review. Based on manuscripts receiving a post-review first decision in the last six months.
- From acceptance to online publication: the average (median) number of days from acceptance of a manuscript to online publication of the Version of Record. Based on articles published in the last six months.
- Acceptance rate: articles accepted for publication by the journal in the previous calendar year as percentage of all papers receiving a final decision.
