Note: Domestic journal scores are officially collected from annual HĐGSNN decisions across councils. International journal scores are dynamically computed according to Decision 26/QĐ-HĐGSNN based on quartile and citation metrics in the publication year.

Aims & Scope

Typical issues include research papers and/or comprehensive reviews from a variety of topical areas. In the spirit of fostering constructive scientific dialog, the Journal accepts Letters to the Editor commenting on previously published articles. Periodically the Journal features a Special Section containing a group of related— usually invited—papers introduced by a Guest Editor. Imaging research topics that have coverage in JIST include: Digital fabrication and biofabrication; Digital printing technologies; 3D imaging: capture, display, and print; Augmented and virtual reality systems; Mobile imaging; Computational and digital photography; Machine vision and learning; Data visualization and analysis; Image and video quality evaluation; Color image science; Image archiving, permanence, and security; Imaging applications including astronomy, medicine, sports, and autonomous vehicles.
