Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue aims to explore the latest advancements and innovations in the field of computational methods and applications of neural networks. Recent major neural networks include Mamba-based frameworks. These frameworks excel in speech recognition, time series analysis, and natural language understanding. In addition, Swin Transformer and SegFormer are important models for visual tasks, which enable 3D scene reconstruction and real-time semantic segmentation. Generative models like Stable Diffusion 3, DALL-E 3, and Midjourney support multimodal content creation, from text-to-image synthesis to 3D object generation.
Applications of neural networks exist across diverse fields. However, the escalating scale and complexity of models present unprecedented challenges in computational efficiency, resource consumption, training stability, and deployment feasibility. This Special Issue aims to curate cutting-edge research that addresses these challenges through foundational advances in the computational and algorithmic principles of neural networks. We seek original contributions that introduce novel methods, provide rigorous theoretical analysis, and demonstrate significant improvements in the efficiency, scalability, and capability of neural models.
Considering your expertise in the field, I encourage you to submit an article. If you are unable to contribute at this time, please feel free to share this invitation with your colleagues. Alternatively, you may provide us with the contact details of anyone who might be interested, and we will reach out to them directly.
Thank you for your time, and I 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.
