In Machine Learning the top journal JMLR is also completely free and open access. Nature tried to introduce a machine learning journal but it is being boycotted by many researchers.

Someone on HN should compile a big list of top free-open journals for various fields.

But not all! In fact lots of people, to my surprise, are publishing in Nature: Machine Intelligence

Because they can brag annd say "I published in Nature". I've seen that so often, same thing with the various "Science something" journals that get transformed as "In my Science article..."

The best is the borderline-predatory journal called "Journal of Nature and Science".

"My track record includes numerous publications in Nature and Science."

That is amazing.
