机器人领域的SCI期刊介绍

        现在很多大学和研究所都开展了机器人研究，对于博士生，有些单位要求发表SCI论文才能毕业。我统计了机器人学科的SCI期刊信息（排名不分先后）。由于影响因子会变动，我没有列出，大家如果需要可以到期刊官网或SCI网站查询。我只列出了最相关的部分，还有一些比如 Journal of Field Robotics 这样的针对某一具体方向的期刊没有统计，欢迎大家继续补充。

     1.   Autonomous Robots

     双月刊，无版面费，但彩色图片收费。(Online publication of color illustrations is free of charge. For color in the print version, authors will be expected to make a contribution towards the extra costs.)

     接收范围：报道实际机器人在非结构环境中的表现和性能，包括机动性、自主性能和智能行为。主要针对自给自足的可移动机器人(尤其是仿生机器人)的控制、学习、传感器融合、自修复和自复制智能系统。文章最好包含机器人在真实环境中的性能数据，只有仿真数据被接收的概率较低。接收会议论文的扩充。文章长度不能超过75000字符。(Papers which have previously appeared in conference proceedings will also be considered, and this should be so indicated at the time of submission. Papers should be no longer than 75,000 characters, including spaces. Each figure is equivalent to 2000 characters. Papers longer than the limit may be returned without review.)

     期刊简介：The primary goal of Autonomous Robots is to report on the theory and applicationsof robotic systems capable of some degree of self-sufficiency. Thus, the journal is aimed at the growing trend in robotics toward mobility, intelligenceand autonomy in an unstructured world. This trend has been made possible bysmall, inexpensive, high-performance computers. The term `robot’ implies thatthe systems described here are capable of performing purposeful behaviors in the real world. They obtain inputs from the world through sensors and act uponthe world through actuators. The connection between sensing and actuation maybe simple signal processing or it may involve complex decision making, goal interpretation and other aspects of reasoning. Most autonomous systems displaysome form of mobility: on land, under water, in the air or in space. The mobility may make use of wheels, legs, fins, rotors or other actuators. Thefocus is on the ability to move and be self-sufficient, not on whether thesystem is an imitation of biology. Of course, biological models for robotic systems are of major interest to the journal since living systems are prototypes for autonomous behavior.  Autonomous robots must be able to perform in the world. Hence, publication preference will be given to paperswhich include performance data on actual robots in the real world. Papers whichinclude only simulation results will be considered for publication, but with alower priority. Such papers should also include a section entitled `The path to implementation’, where the transition from simulation to real world is discussed.

      Papers published in these pages will report on original research in such areas as:

    •        Control of autonomous robots

    •        Real-time vision

    •        Autonomous wheeled and tracked vehicles

    •        Legged vehicles

    •        Computational architectures for autonomous systems

    •        Distributed architectures for learning, control and adaptation

    •        Studies of autonomous robot systems

    •        Sensor fusion

    •        Theory of autonomous systems

    •        Self-calibration and self-repair for robots

    •        Self-reproducing intelligent structures

    •        Genetic algorithms as models for robot development.

       能在这些期刊上发表论文说明你的工作还是比较出色的。当然也别骄傲，再好的期刊也会有价值低的论文，我就见过一些。机器人领域的顶级期刊有2个：IEEE Transactions on Robotics 和 International Journal of Robotics Research，分别简称TRO和IJRR。这两个期刊审稿很严格很难中，录用率极低，如果你是研究生想快速发论文早点毕业尽量不要投，你可以选择咱们国家的《机械工程学报》英文版和《中国科学》的英文版，它们都是被SCI检索的（不过随着国内灌水的增多，它们有被踢出去的可能）。如果你能在 TRO 或 IJRR 上发表文章，那说明你非常厉害或者做的东西非常有创意。这两个期刊的论文可以当敲门砖，凭它进入一些知名的单位，比如中科院自动化研究所，清华大学，上海交大。感兴趣的话可以看看这些单位的研究员和教授都发表过什么级别的论文。例如清华大学的刘辛军，我们看看他在哪些期刊灌过水：6篇Robotica、7篇Mechanism and Machine Theory、1 篇Robotics and Autonomous Systems、1 篇International Journal of Robotics Research、1篇Robotics and Autonomous Systems等等。看完也不要妄自菲薄，追求潮流总是好发文章，比如早期做并联机器人的。低排名的期刊上的文章未必低水平。
        我还没有听说过国内在研究生期间能在TRO 和 IJRR 上发表论文的人，不过香港倒是有这样的人才，比如香港城市大学的陈剑，这是他的毕业论文：Multi-Robot Formation Control: A Receding-Horizon Leader-Follower Framework.
        国外的期刊审稿周期通常不确定，从投稿到录用可能需要一年甚至更长的时间，因此如果你毕业需要请尽量早点投稿。

      机器人领域的顶级国际会议有2个：

      1.  ICRA

       全称是 International Conference on Robotics and Automation。机器人方向的都可以投，投稿日期是每年的4~5月左右。在ICRA上发表的文章有的会以扩充的方式随后出现在一些顶级期刊上，比如TRO和IJRR，可见文章的分量。不容易中，录用率很低，不过我也在上面见到过一些垃圾论文。

      2.  IROS

       全称是 International Conference on Intelligent Robots and System。机器人方向的都可以投，投稿日期是每年的9~10月左右。

      下面是一般的会议，相对来说比较容易中。

      3.  ROBIO

       全称是 International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics。主要针对仿生机器人或生物技术交叉领域，投稿日期是每年的10月左右。录用率大概在1/4左右。

      4.  ICMA

       全称是 International Conference on Mechatronics and Automation。机器人方向的都可以投，投稿日期是每年的6~8月左右。

      5.  WCICA

       全称是 World Congress on Intelligent Control and Automation。机器人方向的都可以投，投稿日期是每年的5~6月左右。如果写的比较正规基本上来者不拒。

      6.  CYBER

       全称是 International Conference on CYBER Technology in Automation, Control and Intelligent Systems。新举办的会议，机器人方向的都可以投，投稿日期是每年的1~2月左右。

      7.  Humanoids

       全称是 International Conference on Humanoid Robots。人形机器人方向的可以投，投稿日期是每年的6~7月左右。
