Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to submit original papers to this Special Issue. The scope extends from fundamental theoretical contributions to practical implementation studies, with particular emphasis on bridging the gap between artificial intelligence theory and robotic perception applications. The operational efficacy of robotic systems fundamentally depends on their environmental perception capabilities. Conventional perception methodologies, predominantly rooted in empirical human knowledge frameworks, exhibit limitations in generalizability across diverse operational scenarios and face inherent constraints in accuracy enhancement.
This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for scholarly discourse on emerging developments in intelligent perception technologies. The current technological landscape demonstrates a paradigm shift driven by synergistic advancements in artificial intelligence architectures and computational hardware evolution. Notable progress has been particularly observed in multimodal perception systems, encompassing visual processing and force-tactile sensory modalities. This technological convergence suggests a trajectory towards the increasingly sophisticated integration of machine learning paradigms in robotic perception systems, potentially catalyzing transformative innovations in both perceptual algorithms and foundational AI methodologies.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Robot perception methods, such as visual perception and force sensing;
- Multimodal perception methods for intelligent unmanned systems;
- AI-driven perceptual frameworks for robotic systems;
- Application of artificial intelligence in robotic perception;
- Robot control, such as intelligent control based on learning, and multi-agent cooperative control.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
