Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The Special Issue "Computational Modelling and Analytical Framework for Medical Applications" aims to summarize recent developments and trends in computational modeling and analytical frameworks for medical applications. The scope of this Special Issue covers the application of mathematical, computational, and statistical methods in order to understand and predict medical processes, develop new medical technologies, diagnose and treat diseases, and analyze medical data. It will provide a platform for interdisciplinary exchange between mathematicians, computer scientists, medical researchers, and engineers working in this field.

The Special Issue will cover a wide range of topics including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Medical image analysis and processing;
  • Computational modeling of physiological systems;
  • Single-scale and multi-scale mathematical models (describing single-scale and multi-scale physiological systems);
  • Statistical learning for medical data analysis;
  • Parameter identification for deterministic and stochastic systems;
  • Medical device design and optimization;
  • Predictive and personalized medicine;
  • Medical decision-making and diagnosis;
  • Simulation of medical procedures and treatments;
  • Applications of machine learning and artificial intelligence in medicine;
  • Big data analysis in medical research.

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.

Abstract
This paper presents an individualized multiple linear regression model based on compositional data where we predict the mean and coefficient of variation of blood glucose in individuals with type 1 diabetes for the long-term (2 and 4 h). From these predictions, we estimate [...] Read more.
This paper presents an individualized multiple linear regression model based on compositional data where we predict the mean and coefficient of variation of blood glucose in individuals with type 1 diabetes for the long-term (2 and 4 h). From these predictions, we estimate the minimum and maximum glucose values to provide future glycemic status. The proposed methodology has been validated using a dataset of 226 real adult patients with type 1 diabetes (Replace BG (NCT02258373)). The obtained results show a median balanced accuracy and sensitivity of over 90% and 80%, respectively. A information system has been implemented and validated to update patients on their glycemic status and associated risks for the next few hours. Full article
