Machine Learning Interpretability: A Survey on Methods and Metrics

Diogo V. Carvalho, Eduardo M. Pereira, Jaime S. Cardoso · 26 Jul 2019

Machine learning systems are becoming increasingly ubiquitous. These systems’s adoption has been expanding, accelerating the shift towards a more algorithmic society, meaning that algorithmically informed decisions have greater potential for significant social impact. However, most of these accurate decision support systems remain complex black boxes, meaning their internal logic and inner workings are hidden to…

The k-means Algorithm: A Comprehensive Survey and Performance Evaluation

Mohiuddin Ahmed, Raihan Seraj, Syed Mohammed Shamsul Islam · 12 Aug 2020

The k-means clustering algorithm is considered one of the most powerful and popular data mining algorithms in the research community. However, despite its popularity, the algorithm has certain limitations, including problems associated with random initialization of the centroids which leads to unexpected convergence. Additionally, such a clustering algorithm requires the number of clusters to be…

Wearable Photoplethysmographic Sensors—Past and Present

T. Tamura, Yuka Maeda, Masaki Sekine et al. · 23 Apr 2014

Photoplethysmography (PPG) technology has been used to develop small, wearable, pulse rate sensors. These devices, consisting of infrared light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and photodetectors, offer a simple, reliable, low-cost means of monitoring the pulse rate noninvasively. Recent advances in optical technology have facilitated the use of high-intensity green LEDs for PPG, increasing the adoption of this…

CNN Variants for Computer Vision: History, Architecture, Application, Challenges and Future Scope

Dulari Bhatt, Chirag Patel, Hardik Talsania et al. · 11 Oct 2021

Computer vision is becoming an increasingly trendy word in the area of image processing. With the emergence of computer vision applications, there is a significant demand to recognize objects automatically. Deep CNN (convolution neural network) has benefited the computer vision community by producing excellent results in video processing, object recognition, picture classification and segmentation, natural…

Electronics template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Electronics format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Electronics template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official MDPI format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Electronics use?
Electronics uses Numbered (MDPI) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A.; Jones, B.; Lee, C. A Representative Article Title. Electronics 2023, 12, 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Electronics?
No. DocuGuru generates the mdpi LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a MDPI-ready Electronics document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Electronics template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Electronics format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is Electronics?
Electronics - MDPI Journal. It is a multidisciplinary journal, published by MDPI.
Can I export a submission-ready Electronics PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Electronics template (the mdpi class) that is ready to submit to MDPI, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Electronics template cost?
You can start writing in the Electronics template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Electronics PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
