Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to present recent advances in control and learning technologies to improve the levels of autonomy, reliability, and safety of networked systems. These technologies are in demand and applications can be found in modern manufacturing, industrial process control, the Internet of Things, autonomous vehicle navigation and localization. It is challenging to answer how to further advance such fields via control and learning methods with reliability and safety certificates. This Special Issue aims to attract more research attention and to compile new theoretical concepts, new design and analysis tools, and novel application cases. Potential topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Joint design of localization and formation tracking control;
- Learning and data-driven method for localization and formation control;
- Secure localization and formation control of networked systems;
- Localization and formation with safety guarantees;
- Dynamic positioning/path following/trajectory tracking/target tracking of autonomous systems including unmanned surface/underwater/ground/ aerial vehicles;
- Sensor fusion algorithms in mobile networks;
- Intelligent fault diagnosis and remaining useful life prediction;
- Industrial data analysis and reliability control;
- Intelligent transportation systems and computation;
- Internet of things and edge computing;
- Reinforcement learning for feedback control.

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.
