Advances in Image Processing, Artificial Intelligence and Intelligent Robotics

Dear Colleagues,

For many years, scientists and engineers have tried to make digital image processing as efficient as the human vision system. Recently, artificial intelligence, deep learning and soft computing methods have been involved in the development of various sophisticated image processing algorithms. Further, image processing plays a significant role in intelligent robotics, where the goal is the realization of precise, robust, and intelligent control solutions based on image information. Thus, the use of vision sensors and cameras in robotics inspired the deployment of effective applications in industry, agriculture, biology, medicine, etc.

The aim of this Special Issue is to give researchers the opportunity to provide new tendencies as well as the latest achievements and research directions, and to present their current work on the important problems in image processing, deep learning, soft computing, sensor fusion, robotic vision and applied industrial solutions in robotics.

In this Special Issue, original research articles, short communications, technical reports, perspectives, extended conference papers and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:

• Two- and three-dimensional image processing;
• Image segmentation and texture analysis;
• Image filtering, restoration and enhancement;
• Biomedical image processing;
• Pattern recognition and shape detection;
• Deep learning;
• Soft computing and fuzzy techniques;
• Sensor fusion;
• Measurements;
• Robot vision;
• Intelligent and applied robotics;
• Hardware and architectures for image processing and robotics;
• Robust identification.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Electronics 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.
