Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recent decades have seen a dramatic rise in the application of machine learning and data mining. Emerging technologies, such as the Internet of things (IoT), neural networks, deep learning, and smart things, have driven new developments in these fields across domains such as healthcare, manufacturing, automobiles, and agriculture. One important breakthrough in artificial intelligence is deep learning, which encompasses a large family of neural computing methods, including convolutional neural networks (CNNs), generative adversarial networks (GANs), and transformers. These methods utilize deep architectures composed of multiple non-linear transformations in order to model high-level abstractions of raw data. Recent studies have shown that deep neural networks significantly improve the performance of learning tasks such as object detection, image classification, and segmentation. Consequently, many advanced real-world applications are becoming increasingly integrated with machine learning and data mining technologies.

This Special Issue aims to present cutting-edge techniques in the application of machine learning and data mining. This objective is shared by the 2026 International Conference on Neural Computing for Advanced Applications (NCAA 2026), which will be held in Osaka, Japan on July 9-12, 2026. Authors of outstanding papers selected from the NCAA 2026 will be invited to submit their extended technical papers for potential publication in the proposed Special Issue, subject to the journal’s standard review process.

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.
