Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Intelligent control considers the use of a wide variety of artificial intelligence techniques, such as neural networks, fuzzy logic, and machine learning, to name a few. The complexity of modern engineering plants is growing in order to fulfil strict requirements and performance specifications. Therefore, obtaining accurate and suitable mathematical models is one of the most challenging tasks in control design. The above problem has led to considering intelligent control tools in order to provide accurate identification methods, as well as flexible and robust controllers.
Robots are designed to be able to solve new and different tasks in complex and cluttered environments. Thus, flexible structures are of great interest during the control design of an uncertain robotic system. In recent decades, various approaches based on intelligent control have been considered for some robotic applications, such as navigation, trajectory tracking, rehabilitation, force control, and cooperative or coordinated motion in multirobotic systems.
Therefore, the purpose of this Special Issue is to present the latest developments and outstanding applications in intelligent control, such as neural networks, fuzzy logics, and machine learning; and in robotics, such as navigation, force control, rehabilitation, and coordination and consensus of multirobotic systems. Researchers in these fields are invited to contribute with their original and unpublished works. Both research and review papers are welcome.

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. Information 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 1600 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.
