Symmetry and Its Applications in Image Processing

Dear Colleagues,

The Special Issue, entitled “Symmetry and Its Applications in Image Processing”, delves into the fascinating relationship between symmetry phenomena and image processing, exploring how symmetry concepts enrich and enhance image processing techniques. Symmetry, as a fundamental principle in various disciplines, plays a pivotal role in the understanding and manipulation of visual data. This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of the multifaceted ways in which symmetry influences image processing methodologies, from fundamental principles to innovative applications.

The articles in this Special Issue will cover a wide range of topics, including symmetry-based image enhancement techniques, symmetrical algorithms for pattern recognition, computational methods for symmetry detection, and the utilization of symmetric patterns in feature extraction. By shedding light on these diverse aspects of symmetry in image processing, this Special Issue seeks to contribute to the advancement of research in this dynamic field and inspire new avenues of inquiry and innovation.

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. Symmetry is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
