Computational Methods and Application in Machine Learning

Dear Colleagues,

Machine learning is an interdisciplinary subject involving probability theory, statistics, approximation theory, convex analysis, optimalization, algorithm complexity theory, etc. It focuses on how computers simulate or realize human learning behaviors, so as to obtain new knowledge or skills. It is the core of artificial intelligence. In essence, the aim of machine learning is to enable computers to simulate human learning behaviors, automatically acquire knowledge and skills through learning, continuously improve performance and realize artificial intelligence.

The main focus of this Special Issue is the progress of machine learning methods and applications, as well as emerging intelligent applications and models in topics of interest, including, but not limited to, information retrieval, expert systems, automatic reasoning, natural language understanding, pattern recognition, computer vision, intelligent robot, and deep learning.

The goal of this Special Issue is to establish a community of authors and readers to discuss the latest research, propose new ideas and research directions, and associate them with practical applications. In terms of application, we welcome papers including, but not limited to, the following topics: new machine learning models for vision, natural language, bioinformatics, intelligent robots and expert systems. We will consider any theoretically solid contributions to the fields related to machine learning.

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. 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.
