Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
InSAR technology has been widely applied to digital elevation model (DEM) generation and geo-hazard deformation analysis. As an ill-posed problem, the accuracy of the InSAR product is sensitive to the selection of parameters and processing approaches with rapid ground deformation or topographic changes. It requires that the InSAR signal processing practitioners be well-experienced, which is unfavorable to the generalization and commercialization of InSAR. Today, deep learning provides a new data-driven framework for accumulating experience. Moreover, deep learning techniques and a flood of valuable data coming from different InSAR sensors allow us to enable the learning-based “data model” outside of the traditional ones, which will act as a new discovery agent to investigate and explore previously intractable or inaccessible problems. This Special Issue aims to invite contributions on the latest developments and advances of the learning algorithms and frameworks on InSAR signal processing and applications.
Topics To Be Covered
- Learning-based approaches on InSAR signal processing chain, e.g., denoising and phase unwrapping
- Learning algorithms and models of InSAR data for Earth remote sensing (supervised/weakly supervised/unsupervised)
- Fusion framework of the datasets from disparate InSAR systems
- A comparative study of the existing learning approaches of InSAR datasets

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. Sensors 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 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.
