Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,  

In recent years, we have observed the rapid development of artificial intelligence, especially deep learning architectures within the machine learning research area, being a part of Mathematical Sciences. It has resulted in the increased accuracy of novel solutions as observed in ImageNet challenges. Therefore, machine learning-based algorithms comprise multiple applications in the field of computer vision, especially image-processing tasks in areas that include medical image analysis, autonomous driving, robotic vision, and cybersecurity. These techniques are commonly used for image pre-processing, registration, detection, segmentation, classification, reconstruction, retrieval, and feature extraction. Being robust and repeatable, they appropriately support the scientist in his or her daily work.   

This Special Issue aims to collect all the works reflecting the latest developments in machine learning, emphasizing their usage in image analysis. We invite the authors to submit original articles addressing the significant issues and new concepts in the field of image processing. To broaden the perspectives of applying machine learning techniques to image analysis, we especially welcome the contributions that target explainable model development, including areas such as the ethics of AI, fairness, transparency, and human–AI collaboration research contributing to the understanding of AI decisions.   

Contributions are welcome on a theoretical and experimental level as well as practical applications.

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. Mathematics 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.

The inevitable noise generated in the acquisition and transmission process of MRIs seriously affects the reliability and accuracy of medical research and diagnosis. The denoising effect for Rician noise, whose distribution is related to MR image signal, is not good enough. Furthermore, the brain has a complex texture structure and a small density difference between different parts, which leads to higher quality requirements for brain MR images. To upgrade the reliability and accuracy of brain MRIs application and analysis, we designed a new and dedicated denoising algorithm (named VST–MCAATE), based on their inherent characteristics. Comparative experiments were performed on the same simulated and real brain MR datasets. The peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), and mean structural similarity index measure (MSSIM) were used as objective image quality evaluation. The one-way ANOVA was used to compare the effects of denoising between different approaches. p < 0.01 was considered statistically significant. The experimental results show that the PSNR and MSSIM values of VST–MCAATE are significantly higher than state-of-the-art methods (p < 0.01), and also that residual images have no anatomical structure. The proposed denoising method has advantages in improving the quality of brain MRIs, while effectively removing the noise with a wide range of unknown noise levels without damaging texture details, and has potential clinical promise.
