Recent Advances in the Processing of Hyperspectral Images (Second Edition)

Dear Colleagues,

We extend our thanks for all the effort and support received in successfully producing our previous Special Issue: ‘Recent Advances in the Processing of Hyperspectral Images (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/remotesensing/special_issues/RQQO435VOB). Submissions are now open for a new edition of this Special Issue, as detailed below.

Hyperspectral imagery (HSI) has become one of the most important tools for acquiring data to analyze the monitoring and evaluation of resources and the ecological environment. However, due to the limitations of sensors and the complexity of resources in the ecological environment, there are often many mixed pixels in the obtained HSI, which brings great challenges to the mapping of resource ecological environments. Therefore, one of the most significant spectral issues in remote sensing research is how to process mixed pixels for HSI to obtain more accurate resource ecological environment mapping information. Many hyperspectral image processing techniques are developing rapidly to process mixed pixels. In particular, the development of computer technology and calculation techniques such as artificial intelligence, deep learning, and weakly supervised learning has expanded the application and scope of hyperspectral image processing in recent years. However, several challenges still require efficient solutions and novel methodologies. The main goal of this Special Issue is to address advanced topics related to hyperspectral image processing.

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. Remote Sensing 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 2700 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.
