Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Hexagonal image processing has emerged as a fundamentally innovative yet nascent methodology in computer vision that is leveraging the geometric properties of hexagonal grids over traditional square pixel arrays.

This Special Issue explores the latest advancements and applications of hexagonal image processing across various domains of computer vision. Special emphasis is placed on the investigation and implementation of hexagonal structures in image generation and acquisition, as well as image enhancement and analysis, demonstrating improvements while also highlighting the challenges in tasks related to computer vision, pattern recognition, as well as machine learning and deep learning. Additional focus is given to contributions that systematically evaluate and compare traditional algorithms and models with their hexagonal counterparts in terms of accuracy and computational performance. Given the general lack of publicly available hexagonal datasets, contributions that describe hexagonal datasets, their properties, and generation processes in detail are especially welcome.

Through this call, this Special Issue aims to provide a robust framework for understanding the benefits and challenges of hexagonal image processing, offering insights into their evaluation and explainability for researchers and practitioners seeking to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of computer vision systems.

We look forward to your valuable contributions and findings.

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.
