Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, machine learning has brought transformative advances across various scientific domains, and especially to Photonics and Optics. In these disciplines, where light acts as an information carrier, the introduction of machine learning methodologies has emerged as a cornerstone that fundamentally enhances our capabilities for feature detection and characterization, elevating the resolution, speed, and quality of optical systems and even facilitating the generation of data across various modalities.
This Special Issue aims to present insights and breakthroughs from leading experts working in the multidisciplinary field of machine learning and Photonics, from improving health diagnostics in biomedical engineering and enhancing our understanding of biological processes in biophotonics to advancing our capabilities in remote sensing, refining techniques in ellipsometry, and exploring the depths of marine science.
Potential topics for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Machine learning for optical imaging systems.
- Deep learning.
- Super resolution.
- Cross-modality image generation.
- Biomedical engineering.
- Optical diagnostics.
- Remote sensing.
- Biomedical imaging.
- Marine particle sensing.
All manuscripts will be considered pending peer review. Research articles, reviews, and perspectives are welcome.

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. Photonics 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.
