Statistical Biomedical Signal and Image Processing and Understanding: 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

Statistical methods, applied to image analysis, are an important research topic in the field of image processing. Medical and biological images are natural images where statistical processing approaches could help doctors and biologists to better understand, detect and diagnose using computer-based methods. Recently, deep learning techniques have given an impressive performance in recognition and classification tasks. Therefore, a great number of research studies turned to use neural networks to address the recent trend of machine learning. This Special Issue focuses on new statistical methods applied to signal and images in the biomedical field, including all biomedical modalities, and it welcomes submissions of theoretical or application-based approaches related, but not limited, to:

• Multi-dimensional imaging;
• Medical images filtering;
• Restoration;
• Segmentation and registration;
• Feature extraction and image description;
• Classification tools for image-based diagnosis;
• Methods in diagnosis optimization;
• Computer-aided diagnosis systems and methods;
• Deep learning.

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. Journal of Imaging 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 1800 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.
