Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue explores the transformative role of artificial intelligence in reshaping modern healthcare through intelligent sensing technologies. As AI algorithms grow increasingly sophisticated and sensor technologies become more advanced, their integration is enabling faster, more accurate, and highly personalized diagnostics and treatment strategies.

We welcome original research and practical applications demonstrating how AI-powered sensing systems are advancing clinical decision-making, real-time patient monitoring, and early disease detection. Emphasis is placed on interdisciplinary approaches that combine wearable devices, medical sensors, machine learning models, and edge/cloud computing to support data-driven healthcare innovation.

Submissions addressing the integration of edge computing, cloud-based analytics, and next-generation wireless networks to improve diagnostic accuracy and healthcare delivery are particularly encouraged. We welcome contributions from academia and industry that drive innovation in smart, data-driven healthcare.

Dr. Muhammad Azizur Rahman
Guest Editor

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. Sensors 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.
