Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Due to recent advancements in the fields of artificial intelligence and machine learning, massive amounts of data have been collected via various channels under different formats. While the growing availability of information would generally lead to significant scientific progression, it also presents great challenges in adequately analyzing such massive datasets. To this end, the scientific literature over various topics of computational statistics and data science have significantly grown in recent years. The following topics have gained increasing attentions: dimension reduction, feature screening, variable selection, optimal sampling, multitask learning, transfer learning, and distributed learning, among others. In this Special Issue, entitled “Methodology and Application in Computational Statistics and Data Science”, we invite papers to address both the methodological and computational aspects of dealing with challenges in the analysis of large datasets and new data types, including functional data, big data, network data, and others. We also welcome papers that specifically focus on applying the latest methods to the analysis of challenging datasets with complex structures, such as in the areas of biostatistics, genetics, spatial statistics, and others.

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.
