Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The increasing availability of complex datasets in biomedical fields, such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and medical imaging, presents unique challenges and opportunities. This Special Issue will highlight the development and application of advanced statistical and machine learning models for analyzing high-dimensional biomedical data. Recognizing the growing complexity and volume of biomedical data, this Special Issue seeks contributions that present novel methodological advancements in statistical learning and machine learning algorithms (including deep learning) specifically tailored for handling the challenges inherent in high-dimensional datasets.

We encourage submissions that focus on the development of innovative models, algorithms, and frameworks, as well as their practical application to extract meaningful insights from complex biomedical data such as genomics, imaging, and clinical records. Topics of interest include the creation of interpretable models, the development of robust feature selection methods, the integration of diverse data sources, and the rigorous validation of predictive and inferential models with clear relevance to biological discovery and clinical translation.

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.
