Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Lithium-ion batteries have a wide range of applications, but one of their biggest problems is their limited lifetime due to performance degradation during usage. It is essential, therefore, to determine the battery’s state of health (SOH) so that the battery management system can operate the battery in such a way that enables it to run in its optimal state, and thus prolong its lifetime. Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies possess immense potential in terms of inferring battery SOH, and can extract aging information (i.e., SOH features) from measurements and relate them to battery performance parameters, avoiding a complex battery modeling process. Therefore, this Special Issue aims to showcase manuscripts presenting efficient AI-based SOH estimation methods that exhibit good performance metrics such as high accuracy, high robustness against changes to the working environment, and good generalization, etc.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- The effective data mining of features for AI methods;
- Network structures (the study of different AI technologies);
- Learning strategies (supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning);
- Transferring AI-based models between different battery technologies and applications;
- Sequentially updated models (probabilistic methods, self-learning, etc.);
- Physics-informed AI methods for battery SOH estimation;
- Digital twins for battery cells or systems;
- The hardware implementation of AI methods.

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. Batteries 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 2700 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.
