Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Rapid advances in machine learning and artificial intelligence in the last decade have enabled various objects in images to be effectively identified and classified. This advancement makes the detection of objects in various application domains possible, such as detecting cancerous cells in microscopic images, classifying plants and insects in natural environments, identifying astronomical objects in space and distinguinshing deepfake images from real ones. In some cases, these detections are more accurate than human experts’. However, various challenges still need to be resolved before automatic object objection applications can be widely deployed. These challenges includes improved detection accuracy and reliability, explainability and acceptability.
This Special Issue invites high-quality papers that present novel ideas in object detection and classification, the explanation of detection decision and the improvement on acceptability in any application domains. Areas relevant to this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Object detection and tracking;
- Classification of images;
- Deepfake detection;
- Explainable AI on object detection;
- Object localization in images;
- Augmented reality;
- Autonomous vehicles and robots;
- Umpire Decision Review System;
- Remote sensing;
- Disease detection and diagnosis;
- Biometrics.

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.
