KIPS Transactions on Computer and Communication Systems

Description

DNA (Data, Network, AI) is a relatively new term and has recently become a hot topic which combines three of the hottest acronyms. Recently, DNA-based intelligent services and applications are actively developed with IoT Technology. IoT consists of interconnected things with built-in sensors and has the potential to generate or collect a vast amount of data. Collected data can be then analyzed and utilized with AI for problem solving or decision making for Intelligent ICT service. Without AI, IoT and Data would have limited value. AI can multiply the value of Data collected by IoT; conversely, IoT can promote the learning and intelligence of AI.

There are many challenges while deploying DNA and DNA based intelligent applications in practice. For instance, the edge computing issues for supporting the low latency of transmitting huge data in networks and achieving real-time responses with high-performance AI for analyzing the huge data. Security issue is another challenge to provide privacy and safety in terms of data protection in personality applications based IoT system. Machine learning is one of the possible technologies to be utilized in DNA system protection. Besides, there are many other issues related to the increasing DNA systems and DNA based applications.

Machine Learning in IoT and Edge Computing

KIPS Transactions on Computer and Communication Systems

Description

The Internet of Things (IoT) advances and promotes a variety of wired and wireless technologies through embedded devices, smart objects, and smartphones. The integration of IoT along with Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) based on new Bluetooth standards, such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 4.0 and ZigBee, unlocks new IoT applications and services in the future generation of networks. IoT devices generate a massive volume of data continuously. In general, cloud systems are used to store and compute such a large volume of IoT sensor data. This creates even more challenges in data storage and the integration between IoT devices. In order to overcome this problem, edge computing technology moves the collection, process, and analysis of data into the point of origin, rather than to a cloud-based data center, and it enables data processing and analytics as well as knowledge generation to occur in the vicinity of the source of the data. Thus, edge computing technology is becoming a significant platform for enabling consumer-centric IoT services and applications that demand real-world applications. In the meantime, machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) that focuses on enabling machines to learn for themselves without the need for human intervention or to be explicitly programmed to do so. Machine learning on IoT devices allows for learning models directly on the devices themselves, removing the need to externalize data in any way. Machine learning algorithms have a capability to process and analyze a kind of streaming data generated at the edge of the network and IoT devices. This special issue focuses on challenges and problems in machine learning algorithms for processing, learning and discovering knowledge from IoT devices and edge computing technology.
 

Scope
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
 
• Supervised, unsupervised and reinforcement learning in IoT and edge computing
• Big data processing in edge computing for IoT
• Emerging machine learning technologies in IoT and edge computing
• Smart homes, smart traffic monitoring, smart health, smart education and smart manufacturing in IoT and edge computing
• Machine learning algorithms for memory management in IoT and edge computing
• Dimension reduction and Information fusion in IoT and edge computing
• Scalable, online, and decentralized deep learning in IoT and edge computing
• Machine learning algorithms for intrusion and threat detection in IoT and edge computing
