USAGE

• 15126Downloads 2023
  Springer measures the usage on the SpringerLink platform according to the COUNTER (Counting Online Usage of NeTworked Electronic Resources) standards.
• 49 Usage Factor 2022/2023
  The Springer Journal Usage Factor 2022/2023 was calculated as suggested by the COUNTER Code of Practice for Usage Factors. It is the median value of the number of downloads in 2022/2023 for all articles published online in that particular journal during the same time period. The Usage Factor calculation is based on COUNTER-compliant usage data on the SpringerLink platform. (Counting Online Usage of NeTworked Electronic Resources) standards.

WEB OF SCIENCE

• 1.0 Impact Factor 2023
  The journal Impact Factor is the average number of times articles from the journal published in the past two years have been cited in the JCR year. It is calculated by dividing the number of citations in the JCR year by the total number of articles published in the two previous years.
• Q4Quartile: Optics 2023
  Quartiles indicate where a journal’s ranking lies within a particular subject category. These quartiles rank the journals from highest to lowest based on their impact factor. Q1 (green) comprises the quarter of the journals with the highest values, Q2 (yellow) the second highest values, Q3 (orange) the third highest values and Q4 (red) the lowest values.
• 0.27 Journal Citation Indicator (Optics) 2023
  The Journal Citation Indicator is a measure of the average Category Normalized Citation Impact (CNCI) of citable items (articles & reviews) published by a journal over a recent three year period. It is used to help you evaluate journals based on other metrics besides the Journal Impact Factor (JIF).

SCOPUS

• 1.5 CiteScore 2023
  CiteScore acts as an indicator of the citation level of peer-reviewed materials, which is calculated as the ratio of the average number of citations to the number of published documents. Therewith, the publication window is equal to four years.
• 0.42Source Normalized Impact per Paper (SNIP) 2023
  Source Normalized Impact per Paper (SNIP) measures contextual citation impact by weighting citations based on the total number of citations in a subject field. The impact of a single citation is given higher value in subject areas where citations are less likely, and vice versa.
• 0.210 SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) 2023
  SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) is a measure of scientific influence of scholarly journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from.
• Q4Quartile: Computer Science (miscellaneous) 2023
  Quartiles indicate where a journal’s ranking lies within a particular subject category. These quartiles rank the journals from highest to lowest based on their SJR. Q1 (green) comprises the quarter of the journals with the highest values, Q2 (yellow) the second highest values, Q3 (orange) the third highest values and Q4 (red) the lowest values.
• 23H-Index 2023
  A journal has an H index of h if it published h papers each of which has been cited in other journals at least h times. Calculations are based on Scopus.

Optical Memory and Neural Networks  is an international peer-reviewed journal that covers a wide range of problems in information optics such as optical memory, mechanisms for optical data recording and processing, photosensitive materials, optical, optoelectronic and holographic nanostructures, articles on optics and photonics and many other related topics. Papers on memory systems using holographic and biological structures and concepts of brain operation are also included. The journal pays particular attention to research in the field of neural net systems that may lead to a new generation of computational technologies by endowing them with intelligence. The journal welcomes manuscripts from all countries.

The journal audience encompasses the researchers and engineers from different fields, including data recording, processing and storage with the use of optical and holographic methods; associative memory (including biological memory), mathematical models and implementations of neuron systems for data processing and management; optoelectronic matrix devices and multiple-unit nanostructures for new data processing and storage systems.
