Big data analytics:Computational intelligence techniques and application areas

Big Data has significant impact in developing functional smart cities and supporting modern societies. In this paper, we investigate the importance of Big Data in modern life and economy, and discuss challenges arising from Big Data utilization. Different computational intelligence techniques have been considered as tools for Big Data analytics. We also explore the powerful combination of Big Data and Computational Intelligence (CI) and identify a number of areas, where novel applications in real world smart city problems can be developed by utilizing these powerful tools and techniques. We present a case study for intelligent transportation in the context of a smart city, and a novel data modelling methodology based on a biologically inspired universal generative modelling approach called Hierarchical Spatial-Temporal State Machine (HSTSM). We further discuss various implications of policy, protection, valuation and commercialization related to Big Data, its applications and deployment

A Review of Artificial Intelligence in the Internet of Things

Humankind has the ability of learning new things automatically due to the capacities with which we were born. We simply need to have experiences, read, study… live. For these processes, we are capable of acquiring new abilities or modifying those we already have. Another ability we possess is the faculty of thinking, imagine, create our own ideas, and dream. Nevertheless, what occurs when we extrapolate this to machines? Machines can learn. We can teach them. In the last years, considerable advances have been done and we have seen cars that can recognise pedestrians or other cars, systems that distinguish animals, and even, how some artificial intelligences have been able to dream, paint, and compose music by themselves. Despite this, the doubt is the following: Can machines think? Or, in other words, could a machine which is talking to a person and is situated in another room make them believe they are talking with another human? This is a doubt that has been present since Alan Mathison Turing contemplated it and it has not been resolved yet. In this article, we will show the beginnings of what is known as Artificial Intelligence and some branches of it such as Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Fuzzy Logic, and Natural Language Processing. We will talk about each of them, their concepts, how they work, and the related work on the Internet of Things fields

Artificial intelligence in the cyber domain: Offense and defense

Artificial intelligence techniques have grown rapidly in recent years, and their applications in practice can be seen in many fields, ranging from facial recognition to image analysis. In the cybersecurity domain, AI-based techniques can provide better cyber defense tools and help adversaries improve methods of attack. However, malicious actors are aware of the new prospects too and will probably attempt to use them for nefarious purposes. This survey paper aims at providing an overview of how artificial intelligence can be used in the context of cybersecurity in both offense and defense.Web of Science123art. no. 41
