Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Hyperspectral images contain very rich information about the wavelengths of light, which provides signals invisible to the human eyes. Based on these benefits, hyperspectral imaging system have been attracting attention in many fields such as unmanned aerial vehicle, vehicle detection, robot, drone, military, etc. Recently, state-of-the-art technologies such as deep learning and machine learning are being applied to hyperspectral imaging systems. However, there are many issues to be solved, such as high sensor cost, insufficient data, curse of dimensionality, and different characteristics from general-purpose sensors (RGB camera or LiDAR). Furthermore, computer vision techniques based on deep learning remain still poorly investigated.  In this context, we are pleased to invite researchers to suggest novel solutions for the limitations of the current hyperspectral imaging system.

The aim of this Special Issue of Sensors collects original research papers, comprehensive review articles and analysis report (with providing a new dataset) in the field of hyperspectral image for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and Vehicle Detection. Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

  • Hyperspectral imaging system
  • Object detection for hyperspectral imaging system
  • Segmentation for hyperspectral imaging system
  • Small object detection
  • Hyperspectral image enhancement (super-resolution, denoising, dehazing, deraining, low-light enhancement)
  • Aerial image enhancement (super-resolution, denoising, dehazing, deraining, low-light enhancement)
  • Data augmentation for hyperspectral imaging system
  • Other Applications using hyperspectral imaging system
  • Any other topics related aerial images.

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. Sensors 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.
