Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Intelligent signal processing algorithms and analysis methods play a pivotal role in fault diagnosis. For accurate fault diagnosis, data must be preprocessed and turned into a convenient form before knowledge can be acquired.
A wide class of fault detection algorithms are entropy-based techniques. However, the direct application of entropy-based methods for feature extraction may not prevent the side effects of noise in the data. Therefore, entropy-based methods are often used as a fault detection technique only after initial feature extraction techniques.
This Special Issue aims to aggregate the latest research results contributing to theoretical, methodological, and technological advances in using entropy-based methods for the detection of anomalies, forecasting potential degradation, and classifying faults from complex environments and signals. High-quality theoretical and application papers dealing with various fault detection and diagnosis problems using the entropy-based approach alone or in combination with other approaches are also welcomed.

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. Entropy 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 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.
