Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wearable sensors for human-movement monitoring have a broad range of applications, including healthcare, wellbeing monitoring, rehabilitation, and human–computer interaction. Despite rapid advancements in wearable sensor technology and computational algorithms, significant research challenges remain. High-quality data are crucial for data-driven human-movement monitoring algorithms. While the research community strives to share collected data, challenges remain regarding the ability to learn from heterogeneous sources of data and information. Can trained models be transferred or adapted to new environments and contexts or even individuals? In the absence of sufficient real data, what roles and limitations do synthetic data play in enhancing model performance? Additionally, considering the demanding requirements for continuous monitoring and processing, how can green computing solutions improve energy efficiency and manage model complexity while ensuring data privacy, for example, when cloud-based infrastructure is deployed?
We invite researchers to contribute their latest research findings to this Special Issue. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to.

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. 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). 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.
