Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Grounded on visual data, computer vision aims to enable computers to see, understand, decide, and act. Over the years, computational vision has rapidly gained popularity in a wide range of areas, including industry, transportation, agriculture, and medicine. Nowadays, artificial intelligence-powered vision systems are driving the sector to previously unseen levels of popularity by increasing their efficiency and accuracy.
Thus, the applications of such systems are expected to continue to increase alongside the artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning algorithms that are being developed within these frameworks, which have recently achieved great success over conventional techniques. Hence, the community has high expectations for where they foresee these new artificial intelligence-powered techniques in the coming years, in terms of discipline and practice. Thus, this Special Issue aims to provie insight on this future.
This Special Issue aims at presenting new technical approaches in computer vision research and development with particular emphasis on the engineering and technological aspects of image processing and computer vision and their contributions to a wide range of application fields, including (but not limited to) the following:
- Agriculture;
- Healthcare;
- Environmental monitoring;
- Security and surveillance;
- Automotive industry;
- Entertainment;
- Robotics.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
