Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
There are a large amount of data from different types of sensors, for instance, multispectral Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) and computed tomography/magnetic resonance (CT/MR) images, among others. How to take advantage of multimodal data for object detection and pattern recognition is an active field of research. Information fusion (IF) is a venue to enhance the performance of pattern classification, and Deep learning (DL) technologies, including convolutional neural networks (CNNs), are powerful tools to improve object detection, segmentation, and recognition. It is viable to combine DL and IF to boost the overall performance of pattern classification and target recognition. Such combinations of powerful techniques may exploit the deeply hidden features from the multimodal, spatial or temporal data. Example applications may include (but are not limited to) face recognition, cancer detection, image fusion, object detection, and target recognition.

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.
