Sensor-Fusion-Based Deep Interpretable Networks

Dear Colleagues,

Sensor fusion is a technology that combines data and information from multiple sensors to obtain more comprehensive, accurate, and reliable perception results. Sensor fusion based on deep interpretable networks is more advanced, utilizing the powerful modeling and abstraction capabilities of deep learning to process multi-source sensor data, while emphasizing the interpretability of the model, making the output results of the model more convincing and credible.

In this network, data fusion technology can make full use of redundant information and complementarity between different sensors to improve the overall perception accuracy and robustness. By accurately calibrating and synchronizing various sensors, deep learning models can learn deeper features and complex patterns in the fused data. In addition, the interpretability of the model aids in understanding its internal working principles and decision making, which is crucial for the safety and reliability of key application scenarios, such as autonomous driving and intelligent manufacturing.

This Special Issue aims to put together original research and review articles on recent advances, technologies, solutions, applications, and new challenges in the field of sensor fusion-based deep interpretable networks.

Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

• Sensor Fusion for Comprehensive Perception;
• Multi-View Adaptive Fusion Network for Object Detection, Recognition and Understanding;
• Deep Learning and Sensor Fusion for Enhanced Decision Making;
• Open-Source Sensor Fusion for different application scenarios;
• Kalman and Complementary Filters in Sensor Fusion;
• Autonomous Driving with Scene Understanding;
• Sensor Fusion for Motion Tracking Capabilities in Smartphones and Tablets.

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. Sensors 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).
