Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Sensors welcomes submissions to this Special Issue on “Deep Learning Approaches for Prenatal and Perinatal-Image Analysis”.

In recent years, the use of deep learning techniques in neonatology has increased. The development of these automated methods has produced promising results and paved the way for improved workflow efficiency, diagnostics, segmentation, survival probability forecasting, among others. Furthermore, thanks to the release of publicity available datasets, this field is also becoming increasingly accessible to researchers. However, several challenges still need to be addressed.  This Special Issue encourages authors, from academia and industry, to submit new research results about technological innovations and novel applications for image analysis for prenatal and perinatal applications, with special interest to deep learning algorithms. The Special Issue topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Obstetric ultrasound for diagnosis and biometric measurements
  • RGB-D sensors for infants monitoring
  • Intra-operative imaging for obstetric surgery (e.g., laparoscopy)
  • Structure segmentation and classification
  • Generative models
  • Biometrics
  • Challenges and datasets

Manuscript Submission Information

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. Sensors 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). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
