Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the rapid growth of multimedia data and the advancement of imaging devices, image and video processing have become essential in various real-world applications such as medical imaging, remote sensing, autonomous driving, and intelligent surveillance. This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive platform for recent developments and future trends in image and video processing and analysis, with a particular emphasis on advanced methodologies that enable more efficient, accurate, and interpretable visual understanding.
The focus of this Special Issue includes a broad range of topics, from image and video restoration and enhancement to high-level scene understanding and cross-modal learning, where information from multiple sources or modalities is integrated to enrich visual analysis tasks. In parallel, we seek contributions addressing the development of efficient image processing models that balance computational complexity and performance, making them practical for deployment in resource-constrained environments.
Moreover, with the emergence of generative models, image and video generation has opened new possibilities in visual content creation, data augmentation, and simulation, which this Special Issue also aims to explore. We welcome original research articles, review papers, and application-focused studies that showcase innovative solutions and applications across various domains, contributing to a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of image and video processing in both academic and industrial settings.

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. 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.
