Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the era of the Internet of Things and big data, the use of advanced computational intelligence approaches for the extraction of knowledge has emerged and become a process that is now required to conduct decision analyses in various application fields.
In general, the nature of the information and the reasoning processes applied to it are blurred and must be treated with the use of fuzzy-based data mining and approximate reasoning methods and techniques as applied to an increasing knowledge base and on complex models representing the real world.
This Special Issue is aimed at researchers and scholars who wish to propose fuzzy computational intelligence methods and models of knowledge extraction and approximate reasoning for application to massive and multidimensional data.
We hope this Special Issue will attract numerous researchers who will help in providing an update on the latest developments in the field of fuzzy-based computational intelligence techniques in the presence of massive data and their important applications in complex real-world problems.
Some topics that the contributions may focus on include:
- fuzzy models in time series analysis;
- fuzzy clustering models and fuzzy approaches to classify massive and multidimensional data;
- fuzzy multiobjective optimization methods in data analysis;
- hybrid approaches of fuzzy machine learning and fuzzy deep learning;
- type-2 fuzzy rule-based systems;
- fuzzy massive data fusion techniques;
- fuzzy decision making.

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.
