Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to transform science, industry, and society, and many recent advances reveal underlying regularities and balanced structures that can be viewed through the lens of symmetry. Recognizing and exploiting these patterns helps researchers to design models with higher efficiency, stronger generalization, and more interpretable features. This Special Issue invites original research and comprehensive reviews that examine the role of symmetry and related principles in AI theory, algorithm design, and practical deployment. Topics of interest include—but are not limited to—model simplification, pattern discovery, feature prioritization, and performance optimization across applications such as computer vision, speech processing, natural language understanding, robotics, and intelligent sensing. We particularly welcome interdisciplinary submissions that connect mathematical insights with real-world implementations.

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. Symmetry 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.
