Machine Learning in Communication Systems and Networks

A printed edition is available here.
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in machine learning, including the availability of powerful computing platforms, have received huge attention from related academic, research and industry communities. Machine learning is considered as a promising tool to tackle the challenge in increasingly complex, heterogeneous and dynamic communication environments. Machine learning would be able to contribute to intelligent management and optimization of communication systems and networks by enabling us to predict changes, find patterns of uncertainties in the communication environment, and make data-driven decisions.
This Topic will focus on machine learning-based solutions to manage complex issues in communication systems and networks across various layers and within various ranges of communication applications. The objective of the Topic is to share and discuss recent advances and future trends of machine learning for intelligent communication. Original studies (unpublished and not currently under review by another journal) are welcome in relevant areas, including (but not limited to) the following:
- Fundamental limits of machine learning in communication.
- Design and implementation of advanced machine learning algorithms (including distributed learning) in communication.
- Machine learning for physical layer and cross-layer processing (e.g., channel modeling and estimation, interference avoidance, beamforming and antenna configuration, etc.).
- Machine learning for adaptive radio resource allocation and optimization.
- Machine learning for network slicing, virtualization and software defined networking.
- Service performance optimization and evaluation of machine learning based solutions in various vertical applications (e.g., healthcare, transport, aquaculture, farming, etc.).
- Machine learning for anomaly detection in communication systems and networks.
- Security, privacy and trust of machine learning over communication systems and networks.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.
MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:
- Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
- Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
- Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
- Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
- Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
