Artificial Intelligence Technology and Application in Marine Science and Engineering
This special issue belongs to the section “Ocean Engineering“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have presented unprecedented opportunities for innovation in marine science and engineering. The integration of AI-driven techniques—including machine learning, deep learning, data mining, and intelligent optimization—has enabled breakthroughs in ocean observation, marine environment monitoring, resource management, and autonomous maritime systems.
This Special Issue aims to provide a multidisciplinary platform for researchers and engineers to present cutting-edge research and applications of AI technologies in marine contexts. Topics of interest include theoretical developments, computational frameworks, experimental studies, and case-based analyses that demonstrate the transformative role of AI in addressing complex marine and coastal challenges.
We welcome contributions that explore AI-based methodologies for data assimilation, predictive modeling, marine robotics, operational research decision-making, and sustainable blue-economy strategies. Both original research papers and comprehensive reviews are encouraged.

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 Marine Science and Engineering 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 2600 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.
