Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Metaheuristics and artificial intelligence have become increasingly important in solving complex optimization problems in various fields. Metaheuristics are powerful search algorithms that can find near-optimal solutions to problems that are difficult or impossible to solve using traditional methods. On the other hand, artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, including machine learning, deep learning, and neural networks, have shown remarkable success in solving many real-world problems.

This Special Issue in the Mathematics journal aims to provide an overview of the latest advances and prospects in the field of metaheuristics and artificial intelligence. It features contributions from leading experts in the field who present their research on new and innovative methods and techniques that have been developed to tackle complex optimization problems.

The topics covered in this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, optimization algorithms, metaheuristics, swarm intelligence, genetic algorithms, evolutionary computation, artificial neural networks, fuzzy logic, machine learning, deep learning, and hybrid systems. In addition to the aforementioned topics, this Special Issue also focuses on the importance of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) techniques which aim to provide interpretable and transparent models and algorithms to enhance the understanding and trustworthiness of the decision-making process in AI systems. This Special Issue provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research in the field and highlights the ability of these techniques to solve a wide range of problems in diverse areas such as engineering, finance, healthcare, and transportation.

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. Mathematics 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.
