Artificial Intelligence for Sustainable Applications

The objective of this book is to leverage the significance of artificial intelligence in achieving sustainable solutions using interdisciplinary research through innovative ideas.

With the advent of recent technologies, the demand for Information and Communication Technology (ICT)-based applications such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), Internet of Things (IoT), health care, data analytics, augmented reality/virtual reality, cyber-physical systems, and future generation networks, has increased drastically. In recent years, artificial intelligence has played a more significant role in everyday activities. While AI creates opportunities, it also presents greater challenges in the sustainable development of engineering applications. Therefore, the association between AI and sustainable applications is an essential field of research. Moreover, the applications of sustainable products have come a long way in the past few decades, driven by social and environmental awareness, and abundant modernization in the pertinent field. New research efforts are inevitable in the ongoing design of sustainable applications, which makes the study of communication between them a promising field to explore.

This book highlights the recent advances in AI and its allied technologies with a special focus on sustainable applications. It covers theoretical background, a hands-on approach, and real-time use cases with experimental and analytical results.

Audience

AI researchers as well as engineers in information technology and computer science.

「人工智慧應用於可持續發展」
本書的目標是透過創新思維的跨學科研究，利用人工智慧在實現可持續解決方案方面的重要性。
隨著最近技術的出現，對基於資訊和通信技術（ICT）的應用的需求急劇增加，例如人工智慧（AI）、機器學習（ML）、物聯網（IoT）、醫療保健、數據分析、擴增實境/虛擬實境、物理系統和未來世代網絡。近年來，人工智慧在日常活動中扮演了更重要的角色。雖然人工智慧創造了機會，但在工程應用的可持續發展方面也帶來了更大的挑戰。因此，人工智慧與可持續應用之間的關聯是一個重要的研究領域。此外，可持續產品的應用在過去幾十年中取得了長足的進展，受到社會和環境意識的推動以及相關領域的大量現代化的影響。在持續應用的持續設計中，新的研究努力是不可避免的，這使得研究它們之間的通信成為一個有前景的領域。
本書突出了人工智慧及其相關技術在可持續應用方面的最新進展。它涵蓋了理論背景、實踐方法和實時使用案例，並提供了實驗和分析結果。
目標讀者是人工智慧研究人員以及資訊技術和計算機科學工程師。
