Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the fourth industrial revolution, or Industry 4.0, a key objective is to enhance equipment's ability to perceive its own health state and predict future behavior. The development of artificial intelligence, especially the progress made in deep learning, over the last decade provides a promising tool in bolstering this enhancement. Such a tool can be a complement or alternative to conventional physics-based and signal-processing-based techniques in fault detection, diagnosis, and prognosis applications.
Researchers have started to build data-driven or hybrid models to further boost their prediction accuracy in the above applications, yet there are still some untouched or underexplored territories, such as causal inference, demystifying black-box modelling, domain adaptation, automatic feature learning, etc. This Special Issue aims to present current innovations and engineering achievements of scientists and industrial practitioners in the area of adopting artificial intelligence techniques in fault detection, diagnosis, and prognosis.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Adoption of cutting-edge artificial intelligence in prognostics and health management (PHM).
- Data-driven, physics-based, signal-processing-based, or hybrid models straddling the above counterparts.
- Domain adaptation using transfer learning.
- Demystifying the black-box and gaining new insights: interpretability of the learned models.
- Knowledge distillation for edge-computing applications

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.
