Special Issue Information

Dear colleagues,

In recent years, Deep Learning algorithms have seen increasing use, gaining popularity due to their human-like competence for tasks like person recognition. Earlier research has applied these methods to work on thermal images acquired via a variety of techniques. Several aspects of the application of Deep Learning to thermal images are deserving of more study. This Special Issue seeks to provide readers with an overview and applications of deep learning and their potential applications for analysing thermal images. The Issue is devoted to original research papers on techniques, applications, and industrial case studies of the design and deployment of systems based on deep learning approaches. The focus includes all aspects of modelling, testing, and implementation for the validation and verification of deep learning systems. We seek high quality contributions of articles that advance Deep Learning along with its related. We also welcome papers about incorporation of these technologies into actual products and services. Visionary papers describing futuristic applications and domain advancements are also encouraged. Potential topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Machine learning
  • Deep learning
  • Neural networks
  • Expert systems
  • Pattern recognition
  • RGB image data
  • Thermal Images Dataset

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs).

Photogrammetry using unmanned aerial vehicles has become very popular and is already commonly used. The most frequent photogrammetry products are an orthoimage, digital terrain model and a 3D object model. When executing measurement flights, it may happen that there are unsuitable lighting conditions, and the flight itself is fast and not very stable. As a result, noise and blur appear on the images, and the images themselves can have too low of a resolution to satisfy the quality requirements for a photogrammetric product. In such cases, the obtained images are useless or will significantly reduce the quality of the end-product of low-level photogrammetry. A new polymodal method of improving measurement image quality has been proposed to avoid such issues. The method discussed in this article removes degrading factors from the images and, as a consequence, improves the geometric and interpretative quality of a photogrammetric product. The author analyzed 17 various image degradation cases, developed 34 models based on degraded and recovered images, and conducted an objective analysis of the quality of the recovered images and models. As evidenced, the result was a significant improvement in the interpretative quality of the images themselves and a better geometry model. Full article
