Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to delve into the intersection of computational intelligence and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data analysis, with a broadened scope that encompasses single-cell multi-omics data and biomarker finding. Single-cell RNA sequencing has revolutionized our understanding of cellular heterogeneity and transcriptional dynamics in complex tissues and organisms. However, the analysis of these data presents significant challenges due to their high dimensionality, sparsity, and technical noise. Computational intelligence methods have emerged as formidable tools for tackling these challenges. Furthermore, the harmonious integration of those methods with scRNA-seq data, single-cell multi-omics, and biomarker discovery opens up unprecedented avenues for understanding cellular function, interactions, heterogeneity, and specific markers with remarkable precision and depth.
In summary, this Special Issue explores the interplay between computational intelligence and scRNA-seq data analysis, extending to single-cell multi-omics and biomarker discovery. By addressing the challenges posed by high-dimensional, sparse, and noisy data through computational intelligence, this research aims to enhance our understanding of cellular function, interactions, and heterogeneity, thereby highlighting the symmetry between advanced computational methods and the complexity of biological data.

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. Symmetry 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 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.
