Overview
Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the digital landscape with embedded sensors, localized computing, and ubiquitous communication capabilities. It has opened new opportunities to enable smart cities and smart communities that support people with various services in improving their quality of life. However, in order to realize a more connected community that offers wider system-level and social-level collaboration, coordinated decision-making, resiliency, and improved interaction, IoT-based systems and services need to bring intelligence into their core. The interconnection between IoT and Artificial Intelligence (AI) can provide that edge. Interestingly, there has been a growing interest to incorporate AI into IoT-based deployments. The AI-IoT solutions can leverage the huge volume of IoT data, cluster and classify them, make predictions, find patterns and provide early observations that can solve various problems of connected community and its stakeholders. Although researchers individually have been making progresses in IoT (w.r.t. systems, services composition, connectivity, deployment, etc.), AI (w.r.t. data mining, machine learning, deep learning, etc.), and smart city (w.r.t. infrastructure, decision-making, interoperability, etc.), relatively less efforts have been invested to consider the AI-IoT duo in developing intelligent systems and services that strengthen the connections between communities, increase resilience, promote communities of interests, encourage voluntary computing, and address disconnections between communities toward a greater good.
This special section aims to address the recent advances and ongoing improvements of AI-powered IoT solutions for connected communities. More specifically, various aspects related to AI-IoT deployments, technical issues, models, performance, and other aspects on building and supporting connected communities are of interest in the post-Covid-19 context.
Topics:
Suggested topics include:
- AI for prediction, clustering and classification in IoT-connected communities
- AI to understand mediation between virtual and real interactions in IoT-connected communities
- AI-powered modeling of friendship and support between IoT-enabled connected communities
- AI-powered dynamic communities of Interest for IoT in different context
- Resiliency in AI-IoT based connected communities to tackle abnormalities like COVID-19
- Collaborative IoT for AI-powered connected communities
- AI to understand and analyze the effect of disconnected communities
- Security, privacy and trust issues in AI-enablement of IoT-connected community
- New challenges, opportunities, and applications of AI-IoT connected community
