Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the advent of the big data era, data has become an indispensable resource in modern society. In the field of system identification and measurement, how to effectively analyze and fuse data from different sources, formats, and qualities to improve the accuracy of system identification and measurement precision has become a current research hotspot. Data analysis is a core skill in the big data era. In system identification and measurement, data analysis techniques enable us to extract valuable information from massive datasets and reveal the inherent patterns and correlations within the data. Data fusion is a technology that integrates, optimizes, and utilizes data from different sources. In system identification and measurement, data fusion techniques can significantly enhance data reliability and accuracy, thereby improving the precision of system identification and measurement.  

This Special Issue focuses on the theme of "Data Analysis and Data Fusion in System Identification and Measurements", aiming to explore the applications and advancements of data analysis and data fusion technologies in the field of system identification and measurement. Prospective authors are invited to submit their novel and original manuscripts on the theoretical underpinnings and the practical applications of these techniques. Potential topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: 

  • Multi-source information fusion;
  • Bayesian estimation theory;
  • Advanced signal and information processing;
  • Target detection, recognition, and tracking;
  • Cooperative localization and tracking;
  • Sensor fusion in navigation systems;
  • System identification;
  • Simultaneous localization and target tracking;
  • Networked estimation and filtering.

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. Electronics 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 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.
