Multi-Spectral and Color Imaging: Theory and Application

Dear Colleagues,

Color and multispectral imaging research has made spectacular advances in recent years. Multispectral images collect a considerable amount of information about a scene using multiple wavelengths of light, making it easier to distinguish specific scene features. Additionally, color imagery is easily understood by the human eye and can convey a great amount of visual information. Recent contributions and work in multispectral and color imaging have played a crucial role in advances in engineering, computer vision, image analysis, agriculture, geomatics, biology, etc.

In sum, advances in color and multispectral imaging research are essential for the in-depth understanding of complex scenes and phenomena in many scientific and technical fields.

This Special Issue aims to present an overview of recent developments in this field. Contributions can cover topics such as color and light theory, image processing algorithms, pattern and color recognition, camera calibration, multispectral image fusion, image segmentation, and the generation of color images from multispectral data.

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.
