Symmetry in Process Optimization

Dear Colleagues,

The Special Issue, “Symmetry in Process Optimization”, aims to explore the pervasive role of symmetry principles in advancing optimization techniques across diverse scientific domains. With a focus on the integration of machine learning and optimization methodologies, this Special Issue seeks to elucidate how symmetry considerations can enhance algorithmic efficiency, model robustness, and solution quality in various application areas. By fostering interdisciplinary dialogue, this collection will illuminate novel approaches for tackling complex optimization problems in fields such as engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, and beyond. Through theoretical analyses, algorithm development, and real-world case studies, this issue aims to showcase the transformative potential of symmetry-aware optimization techniques in addressing contemporary scientific challenges.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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-anonymized 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.
