Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The convergence of artificial intelligence (AI), photonic waveguide biosensors, and advanced imaging technologies is revolutionizing the detection of human behavioral patterns and transforming healthcare applications. This Special Issue invites contributions that explore how AI-powered systems, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), are applied to data from photonic biosensing platforms and imaging technologies like EEG, MRI, and other medical scans, enabling real-time monitoring of cognitive states, including mind-wandering. Leveraging photonic neural networks and waveguide-based biosensors, researchers can achieve unprecedented precision in the non-invasive detection of behavioral and physiological patterns.

We seek papers that address the development and application of photonics waveguides for biosensing, focusing on innovations that enhance their integration with AI models for detecting behavioral patterns and analyzing medical imaging data. By combining photonic waveguides with AI-driven techniques, these systems are advancing fields such as neuro-cognitive monitoring, medical diagnostics, and brain–computer interfaces (BCIs), enabling high-sensitivity, real-time biosensing solutions.

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. Biosensors 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 2200 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.
