Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Symmetry/Asymmetry is prevalent in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs). Utilizing advanced methodologies such as data mining, optimization algorithms, and system control to identify these characteristics and enhance the technological capabilities of ITSs is essential for effective traffic management. In the era of rapid AI advancement, these technologies have undergone swift innovation. The scope of this Special Issue is to present research focused on symmetry/asymmetry in ITSs utilizing big data, as well as the application of advanced methodologies to address some of the inherent challenges faced by ITSs.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Symmetrical/asymmetrical design of ITSs;
- Analysis of symmetry/asymmetry in ITSs;
- Application of data mining, optimization algorithms, and system control in ITSs;
- Data-driven-based traffic safety analysis;
- Data-driven-based traffic behavior analysis;
- Data-driven-based traffic signal control;
- Data-driven-based urban geographic analysis;
- Data-driven-based trajectory tracking control.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Symmetry is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
