Machine Learning in Bioinformatics

Dear Colleagues,

As an interdisciplinary field of science and technology, bioinformatics provides an important way to improve our understanding of biological data. Artificial intelligence has been employed in useful ways for many bioinformatics applications, ranging from DNA sequencing to protein classification, and to drug design, leading to numerous new discoveries. With the ever-increasing volumes and complexity of biological data, it is expected that the future of bioinformatics will be more closely associated with and dependent on artificial intelligence and machine learning. The aim of this Special Issue is to collect state-of-the-art research on the topic of bioinformatics using artificial intelligence. The Special Issue welcomes any relevant topics, methods, and applications that use artificial intelligence, machine learning or other technologies of the kind for bioinformatics, including (but not limited to) systems biology, synthetic biology, drug design, genomics, proteomics, microarrays analysis.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Algorithms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1800 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.
