Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
A physiological system is characterized by complex dynamics and nonlinear behavior as a result of its own structural organization and regulatory mechanisms. Moreover, the optimization of physiological states and functions passes through the continuous dynamic interaction of feedback mechanisms across different spatiotemporal scales.
For this reason, advanced multivariate and multiscale signal analysis techniques could strongly improve the information acquired from physiological systems monitoring as a promising avenue to increase the knowledge on biological regulation in healthy and pathological states. Thanks to the latest advances in technology that have provided miniaturized and high-performance acquisition systems, a synchronized multichannel recording of multiple signals—even in wearable and wireless mode—is currently possible.
This Special Issue on “Advances in Multivariate and Multiscale Physiological Signal Analysis” will, therefore, focus on original research papers and comprehensive reviews dealing with computational methodologies and the processing of multivariate signals to quantify specific physiological states, as well as linear and nonlinear dynamics at different time scales in univariate and multichannel recordings.
In this sense, research studies proposing novel multiscale and multivariate quantifiers, coupling/causality indexes, and the application of pattern recognition algorithms to heterogeneous data are relevant.
Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, cardiovascular pathology, aging, mental diseases, and affective computing.

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. Bioengineering 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 2700 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.
