Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As artificial intelligence (AI) evolves, its integration with emerging technologies such as blockchain, edge computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT) is driving innovation across sectors including manufacturing, image processing, healthcare, smart cities, environmental monitoring, and industrial automation. AI systems are transforming various aspects of manufacturing, including design, production, quality control, and supply chain management. AI-driven image recognition is being used for tasks such as seam tracking in fiber laser welding, medical imaging analysis, and various other applications. In healthcare, applications of artificial intelligence include disease prediction, diagnostic support, and precision medicine, amongst others.
This Special Issue mainly focuses on the latest advancements in AI technologies and their transformative applications in the field of manufacturing and image processing. We aim to gather cutting-edge research on topics such as advanced AI algorithms, scalable machine learning models, AI-driven decision-making systems, and secure, decentralized architectures. We invite contributions that explore novel methodologies, practical implementations, and interdisciplinary approaches to addressing real-world challenges using next-generation AI technologies in manufacturing and image processing.

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.
