Journal description:

International Journal of Grey Systems (IJGS) is devoted to advancing the theory and practice of Grey System Theory as a novel mathematical approach to soft computing and computational intelligence. The journal is particularly interested in manuscripts that are backed by theory rather than tradition and can lead us to develop a scientifically rigorous body of knowledge on the Grey System Theory. Innovative ideas to manage uncertain systems that have the potential to create a debate are also of interest. Being the first open-access journal on the Grey System Theory, it is hoped to play a decisive role in mainstreaming the Grey System Theory by improving its understanding and global outreach. The journal seeks to foster communications between young and seasoned scholars and between scholars and practitioners with a view to aid data analysts, problem solvers, and decision-makers in handling complex problems objectively.

The topic of interest includes, but not limited to:

  • Grey system theory and its application
  • Grey Relational Analysis and its extensions
  • Inverse Grey Relational Analysis and its extensions
  • Grey Forecasting models and their extensions
  • Grey Multiple Criteria Decision-Making
  • Grey Project Management
  • Grey Control System
  • Grey Scientometrics
  • Grey Numbers
  • Grey Economics
  • Grey Mathematics
  • Grey Game Theory
  • Grey Soft Computing
  • Grey Machine Learning
  • Grey Linear Programming
  • Grey Systems Thinking and Philosophy
  • Grey Spectral Analysis and Time Series Analysis
  • Synthetic Grey Relational Analysis and its extensions
  • Grey combined models (e.g., Grey Ordinal Priority Approach, Grey QUALIFLEX, Grey TOPSIS, etc.)
  • Hybrid grey models (e.g., grey-fuzzy, grey-rough set, grey-neutrosophic models, etc)

IJGS is an high-quality journal under the mentorship of top-notch experts of Grey System Theory. It is indexed in several important databases. The journal uses iThenticate or Turn-it-in software for plagiarism checking and adheres to the highest ethical practices in the academic and publishing industry. The journal welcomes:

  • Full-length Research Papers (double-blind peer-reviewed)
  • Review Articles (double-blind peer-reviewed)
  • Short Communications (double-blind peer-reviewed)

IJGS is an online open-access double-blind peer-reviewed journal that does not charge any fee from the authors or readers. The papers are assigned DOIs immediately after acceptance (but are activated once the issue is published). It is published bi-annually (July and December) in English in both print and online versions.
