Advances in Fuzzy Systems is an international journal which aims to provide a forum for original research articles in the theory and applications of fuzzy subsets and systems. The goal of the journal is to help promote the advances in the development and practice of fuzzy system technologies in the areas of engineering, management, medical, economic, environmental, and societal problems. Advances in Fuzzy Systems is intended to provide a rapid communication of fully refereed papers through the open access publication model, which will enable the journal to reach a far greater audience than traditional subscription-based journals.

The areas covered by the journal include but are not limited to:

    Fuzzy subsets and systems theory and applications
    Approximate reasoning
    Decision theory and optimization
    Intelligent control
    Neural-fuzzy systems
    Fuzzy information theory
    Soft computing and uncertainty modeling
    Fuzzy logic for machine intelligence
    Databases, business, finance and management, medical applications, expert Systems, image processing and pattern recognition and other such areas of interest
