“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.

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).
IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems is Q1 in all 4 of its Scimago subject categories (2025 edition; best category Computational Theory and Mathematics: Q1, #4 of 183), with SJR 3.121 (Scimago) and an h-index of 256 (OpenAlex). Listed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed.

Frequently asked
Is IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems. 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 Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems appears in: 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 IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems?
Papers in IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems are cited about 10.6 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q1, with an h-index of 256. 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 IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems is Q1 in all 4 of its subject categories. By category: Computational Theory and Mathematics: Q1, #4 of 183; Control and Systems Engineering: Q1, #10 of 315; Applied Mathematics: Q1, #13 of 658; Artificial Intelligence: Q1, #14 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; IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems is cited about 10.6 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 256.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems?
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 IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q1, 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 IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems open access?
Our index records its access status as "subscription". 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.
