Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The convergence of smart sensing technologies and machine learning (ML) is transforming healthcare delivery and patient management across a broad range of clinical contexts. This Special Issue, “Transforming Healthcare with Smart Sensing and Machine Learning”, welcomes original research and comprehensive reviews on the design, development, and application of intelligent sensor systems integrated with ML to support personalised medicine, continuous monitoring, early diagnostics, and clinical decision-making.
Key areas of interest include wearable and implantable sensors, biosignal acquisition and processing, multimodal sensor fusion, AI-assisted diagnostics, remote monitoring platforms, and smart rehabilitation technologies. Contributions addressing challenges such as data interpretability, privacy, system integration, and deployment in real-world healthcare settings are especially welcome.
This Special Issue aligns with the scope of Sensors as it highlights advanced sensor technologies, signal processing techniques, and their applications in biomedical and health-related domains. We encourage submissions from interdisciplinary teams that bridge engineering, data science, medicine, and human-centred design to drive innovation and improve health outcomes.
Dr. Mehdi Boukallel
