Cognitive Computation
Submission guidelines
Instructions for Authors
Editorial policy
Cognitive Computation is a high-quality quarterly journal which will publish cutting-edge articles describing original basic and applied work involving biologically-inspired computational accounts of all aspects of natural and artificial cognitive systems. Its main purpose is to establish a forum for bringing different scientific communities together to discuss key issues and challenges in the emerging area of cognitive computation and to promote an interdisciplinary understanding of the diverse topics, including those related to perception, action, attention, learning and memory, decision making, language processing, communication, reasoning, problem solving, and consciousness aspects of cognition.
Areas of particular interest include theoretical, computational, experimental and integrative studies in cognitive systems, including (but not limited to):
artificial intelligence, neural networks, cognitive neuromorphic engineering and other hardware implementations, cognitive robotics, autonomous cognitive systems, neuroscience nanotechnology, self-organizing, swarm and immune systems, complex systems and control theory, and computational cognitive neuroscience, as well as submissions focusing on the development of latest research into practical applications.
Cognitive Computation Audience:
Computational Neuroscientists, Computer Scientists, Cognitive Scientists, Software engineers, Electronic Engineers, Neuromorphic engineers, Systems designers, Information managers, Knowledge Engineers, Psychologists, Linguists, Artificial Intelligence Specialists, Researchers, and professionals in such fields as finance, manufacturing, defense, medicine, and the sciences - both 'pure' and 'applied'.
Types of Papers:
The journal is committed to high standards of presentation. Please contact the Editor to discuss the suitability of topics.
Cognitive Computation will consider:
Regular full-length Papers and Short Papers or Letters describing original research; In-depth Review articles focusing on important new developments; Book reviews, Comments/Discussions on Papers; Opinion and controversies; Letters to the editor; Special Issue proposals; Announcements for upcoming related Events/Conferences and Books.
Full-length or Regular papers can be up to 10,000 words in length and should be aimed at presenting novel results important for the cognitive computation research community. Regular Articles are expected to constitute the core of Cognitive Computation publications.
Review (full-length) articles should focus on a topic of interest to the cognitive computation community. Authors will be asked to take particular care in writing the review in an intelligible way, so that readers outside this field can understand the main ideas and their importance. These review papers should normally be invited by the Editor, but they can also be solicited by Authors. In this case, the Author(s) should contact the Editor, and send an outline of the review stressing why it is important and timely to review this topic, and why it is relevant to this journal. Review papers will be processed and reviewed like regular articles, except that the referees will be explicitly told that it is an invited review paper.
Short Papers or Letters are aimed at important findings that need to be published promptly. The length and the number of figures are limited to 3000 words (text, including references), plus 3 figures (which can be multi-panel figures) and a maximum of one table. For these papers, the time to publication will be minimized (this fast track will be treated in priority). The format remains the same as for regular articles, except that we ask the authors to be very concise in writing their introduction and discussion, and reviewers will be asked to be prompt in their review.
All other correspondence items should be no more than 1000 words in length, with 1 figure or table.
