Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, with the rapid development of the Industrial Internet, many industrial enterprises have realized real-time sensing and integration of operation data, management data, production data, and process data, thus providing a more solid database and potential application scenarios for the industrial big data analysis methods, and also promoting the rapid development and industrial application of various machine learning methods such as ensemble learning and deep learning. In particular, automatic machine learning methods based on evolutionary optimization, such as neural architecture search (NAS) based on evolutionary computation, have received more attention. Therefore, this Special Issue will focus on the latest advances in theoretical methods and applications of machine learning and industrial big data analysis in recent years. The contents covered in this Special Issue include but are not limited to:
- SVM, random forests, ensemble learning methods and applications;
- Deep learning methods and applications;
- Evolutionary machine learning methods and applications;
- Neural architecture search and applications;
- Industrial image understanding and applications;
- Industrial big data analysis and applications;
- Data-driven production management and optimization;
- Data-driven operation management and optimization;
- Data-driven product quality prediction;
- Data-driven production process modeling and optimization;
- Data-driven energy management and optimization;
- Data-driven production planning and scheduling.

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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
