Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Structural networks are a transformative approach to image application, integrating principles from graph theory, topology, computational geometry, deep learning, and more. They focus on modeling complex relationships within image data. This paradigm enables the capture of hierarchical, spatial, and semantic dependencies critical for advanced image understanding. As an important component of neural networks, structural networks enable models to parse intricate visual scenes, infer contextual relationships, and generate robust representations that transcend pixel-level analysis.
The scope of this Special Issue encompasses advances in structural network methodologies and their innovative applications in imaging domains, including, but not limited to, computer vision, pattern recognition, natural language understanding, intelligent robotics, and deep learning.
This Special Issue aims to build a collaborative community for researchers to present cutting-edge developments, propose novel frameworks, and bridge theoretical innovations with real-world implementations. We invite papers on topics including, but not limited to, architectural design, biomedical diagnostics, autonomous navigation, satellite imagery analysis, augmented reality and efficient learning for large-scale/high-resolution images. We welcome theoretically rigorous and experimentally validated contributions that advance the frontier of structural networks in imaging. Papers may span algorithms, architectures, benchmarks, and interdisciplinary case studies.

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.
