Feature Papers represent the most advanced research with significant potential for high impact in the field. Feature Papers are submitted upon individual invitation or recommendation by the scientific editors and undergo peer review prior to publication.

The Feature Paper can be either an original research article, a substantial novel research study that often involves several techniques or approaches, or a comprehensive review paper with concise and precise updates on the latest progress in the field that systematically reviews the most exciting advances in scientific literature. This type of paper provides an outlook on future directions of research or possible applications.

Editor’s Choice articles are based on recommendations by the scientific editors of MDPI journals from around the world. Editors select a small number of articles recently published in the journal that they believe will be particularly interesting to authors, or important in this field. The aim is to provide a snapshot of some of the most exciting work published in the various research areas of the journal.

Dear Colleagues,

The evolution of research in Big Data and artificial intelligence in recent years challenges almost all domains of human activity. The potential of artificial intelligence to act as a catalyst for all given business models, and the capacity of Big Data research to provide sophisticated data and services ecosystems at a global scale, provide a challenging context for scientific contributions and applied research. This Topic section promotes scientific dialogue for the added value of novel methodological approaches and research in the specified areas. Our interest is on the entire end-to-end spectrum of Big Data and artificial intelligence research, from social sciences to computer science including, strategic frameworks, models, and best practices, to sophisticated research related to radical innovation. The topics include, but are not limited to, the following indicative list:
