Advancing knowledge at the
frontier of intelligent machines
and the science of data.
IJMD was founded in 2014 with a simple conviction: the most consequential research in machine intelligence deserved a publishing home that matched its ambition — rigorous, fast, global, and fully open. Twelve years and 12,400+ articles later, that conviction has only deepened.

Our Mission
IJMD exists to accelerate the global conversation at the intersection of intelligent systems and data science. We believe peer-reviewed knowledge should be freely accessible to every researcher, practitioner, and student — regardless of institutional affiliation or geography.
We publish across six specialized series, each with a dedicated editorial board of domain experts, ensuring that every paper receives the most informed and contextually appropriate review possible. Our double-blind process, average 18-day first decision, and commitment to constructive feedback set a standard we hold ourselves to with every submission.
Operationally, IJMD is powered by VérgelAI — whose infrastructure handles submission management, review assignment, production, and distribution at global scale while preserving the editorial independence that gives our publications their authority.
