Machine Learning in Agriculture

This special issue belongs to the section “Physical Sensors“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With big data innovations and high-performance computing, machine learning has emerged to create new possibilities for data-intensive research in Agriculture and specially in the field of multi-disciplinary agro-technology. Applications relate to crop management, including yield prediction applications, remote and proximal sensing, crop phenotyping, disease detection, crop quality, weed detection, and species recognition; A significant field is the management of livestock, including animal protection and livestock production applications; water management; and soil management. Machine learning systems are benefiting from agriculture. Farm management systems are evolving into real-time artificial intelligence powered programs by applying machine learning to sensor data, providing rich suggestions and insights for far-reaching impact.

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. 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.
