Focus and Scope

Journal of Advanced Health Informatics Research (JAHIR) is a national and international peer-reviewed and open access journal. JAHIR aspires to become the most progressive and reliable source of theoretical and practice-oriented research information, particularly in developing research in the field of health informatics.

This journal aims to promote a fundamental understanding of health informatics and advance knowledge and application systems in the health sector.

Manuscripts to be published in JAHIR are original manuscripts that have not been submitted simultaneously to other parties. Papers must contribute to the field of health informatics.

The topic of published papers might be subjected to one or more of the following scopes:

  • Prediction Systems in Healthcare Research. Prediction systems estimate variables at a specified future date based on past behavior or additional knowledge of a system. Subtopics of the scope widely vary. Estimation systems usually take advantage of statistical data, while Fuzzy and Artificial Intelligence-based predictions may forecast with numerical data based on the system's past behavior. Meanwhile, there is the trend-topic analysis and sentiment analysis, which analyze qualitative data.
  • Monitoring and Information Systems in Healthcare Research. Monitoring and information systems allow data capturing, processing, recording, and dissemination of the information systematically. Subtopics may vary based on their tools: Internet of Things (IoT)-based; Microcontroller-based; Android-based; Web-based monitoring systems. Based on its method for delivering information, subtopics may be categorized into Blockchain systems; Wireless Sensor Networks; Database and Information systems; Augmented Reality. Meanwhile, subtopics in data capturing and processing can be Image/Voice/Video Recognition; Image Processing; Detection, Identification, and Classification systems.
  • Automation and Control Systems in Healthcare Research. Automation and control systems apply control theory not only to regulate and monitor processes without direct human force but also to sustain and improve the functioning of a controlled object. Subtopics of this scope may include but are not limited to: Performance analysis, configuration analysis, phase correction, Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control, and Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), sliding mode control, adaptive control, and optimization.
  • Blockchain in Healthcare Research. Blockchain is a digital collection of information about transactions.
  • Law in the Field of Health Information Technology
  • Pharmaceutical informatics
  • Health Science and Applied Technology
