“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

Scimago Journal Rank 2025
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Frontiers in Neurorobotics is Q2 in all 2 of its subject categories.
| Subject category | Quartile | Rank in category |
|---|---|---|
| Biomedical Engineering | Q2 | #133 of 328 |
| Artificial Intelligence | Q2 | #160 of 434 |
- Cites per document (2 years, Scopus)
- 3.56
- Documents indexed in 2025 (Scopus)
- 62
OpenAlex counts about 6.3 citations per paper over two years; Scopus, through Scimago, counts 3.56 per document. The two databases index different journals, documents and citations, so the figures differ. Neither is a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor.
The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category. Rank is the journal's position by SJR among the journals Scimago lists in that category (#1 is the highest); “—” means we hold no rank consistent with that quartile. The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).
Frontiers in Neurorobotics is Q2 in all 2 of its Scimago subject categories (2025 edition; best category Biomedical Engineering: Q2, #133 of 328), with SJR 0.706 (Scimago) and an h-index of 74 (OpenAlex). Listed in DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed.

Frequently asked
Is Frontiers in Neurorobotics a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Frontiers in Neurorobotics. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is Frontiers in Neurorobotics indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Frontiers in Neurorobotics appears in: DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of Frontiers in Neurorobotics?
Papers in Frontiers in Neurorobotics are cited about 6.3 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 74. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
What Scimago quartile is Frontiers in Neurorobotics (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Frontiers in Neurorobotics is Q2 in all 2 of its subject categories. By category: Biomedical Engineering: Q2, #133 of 328; Artificial Intelligence: Q2, #160 of 434. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Frontiers in Neurorobotics is cited about 6.3 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 74.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Frontiers in Neurorobotics?
The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Frontiers in Neurorobotics. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q2, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.
Is Frontiers in Neurorobotics open access?
Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
What is the article processing charge (APC) to publish in Frontiers in Neurorobotics?
Article processing charge (APC): 3,150 CHF per accepted article (DOAJ). Fee waivers are available. The exact charge can vary by article type and any fee waiver, so confirm the current amount on the journal's own site.
How long does Frontiers in Neurorobotics take to publish a paper?
Submission to publication for Frontiers in Neurorobotics takes about ~14 wk — DOAJ self-reported. Treat it as indicative rather than a guarantee: editorial times vary by article type, reviewer availability and season, and a self-reported figure is the journal's own. We do not hold a peer-review acceptance rate for Frontiers in Neurorobotics.
