Image Processing and Computer Vision: Data-Driven Environment Perception and 3D Reconstruction

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue, "Image Processing and Computer Vision: Data-Driven Environment Perception and 3D Reconstruction", focuses on the latest advancements in image processing and computer vision technologies for data-driven environment perception and 3D reconstruction. The  Special Issue aims to showcase a collection of cutting-edge research findings and applications in the field, highlighting the significant impact of these technologies on various industries and domains. The papers included in this Special Issue cover a wide range of topics, including deep learning approaches for image processing, object detection and recognition, semantic segmentation, and scene understanding. Additionally, the Special Issue features research on 3D reconstruction techniques, such as point cloud processing, differentiable rendering, stereo vision, and simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). It also delves into the emerging field of AI-generated content (AIGC). The papers explore the use of AI algorithms to create and manipulate visual content, such as generating realistic images, videos, and 3D models. Furthermore, the Special Issue explores the practical applications of these technologies in fields such as autonomous vehicles, robotics, embodied AI, remote sensing and photogrammetry, augmented reality, and virtual reality. The papers showcase how image processing and computer vision techniques are being used to enhance the perception and understanding of complex environments, leading to improved decision making and navigation capabilities. Overall, this Special Issue provides a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in these technologies and their potential impact on various industries and 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. Electronics 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.
