Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Ideas of calculus based on the integration and differentiation of integer orders have firmly formed the mathematical basis for modelling signals, systems, and deriving methods for signal processing, learning, and control. However, integer-order calculus is a special case of a much wider framework that can accommodate the integration and differentiation of fractional orders. In recent years, it has come to the attention of researchers that using the integration and differentiation of fractional orders results in mathematical models of physical systems that are more accurate, highlighting the need for a comprehensive understanding of the deployment of fractional-order calculus in the fields of signal processing, control, learning, and circuit design. This Special Issue delves into recent advances in the theory of fractional-order calculus and its applications in information processing techniques, including the following:
- advances in the theory of fractional-order calculus and its application in information processing;
- machine learning techniques based on fractional-order calculus;
- the extension of signal processing and control algorithms from integer-order to fractional-order calculus;
- the application of fractional-order calculus in modelling behavior, modern circuits and systems.

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. Fractal and Fractional 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.
