Special Issue on Multi-Sensor Data Fusion for Smart Healthcare
截稿日期: 2024-12-15

Medical data exists in several formats, from structured data and medical reports to 1D signals, 2D images and 3D volumes or even higher dimensional data such as temporal 3D sequences. Healthcare experts can make an auscultation and produce a report in text format; an electrocardiogram can be made and printed in time series format, an x- ray can be performed and saved as an image; a volume can be provided through an angiography; temporal information can be given by echocardiograms, 4D information can be extracted through flow MRI. Another typical source of variability is the existence of data from different time points, such as pre and post treatment, for instance. This high and diverse amount of information needs to be organized and mined in an appropriate way so that meaningful information can be extracted. In recent times, multimodal medical data fusion and analysis can combine salient information into a single source to ensure better diagnostic accuracy and assessment, and ultimately personalized healthcare services delivery. It is established that multi-sensor data fusion provides a valuable solution for healthcare tele monitoring requirements. These healthcare applications demand the usage of wide range of heterogeneous sensors/devices. Further, the multi-sensor fusion approaches increase the reliability and robustness of the healthcare systems by reducing the threatens posed by various malfunctions in the sensors and environment itself such as the power and communication. In addition, global decisions can be taken based on the dependability between the data sources. Finally, exploiting and fusing generative AI techniques for medical data generation could be fundamental to create new opportunities and tackle complex issues in the healthcare area. Motivated by these facts, this special issue targets the researchers from both academia and industry to explore and share new ideas, approaches, theories and practices with focus on multi-sensor data fusion for smart healthcare.Authors are invited to submit high quality proposal on topics including, but not limited to: Multi-sensor fusion for healthcare Combining multiple models for medical data Combining multiple sources in medical data Data Fusion in the Internet of medical things AI techniques/algorithms for multi-source medical data fusion Deep learning for multi-source medical data processing Feature fusion for medical data Hierarchical models for medical information fusion Fusion algorithm for Bio-Inspired data Tensor schemes and constraint algorithms for health and medical data fusion Heterogeneous information fusion for healthcare Medical data fusion trust, security and privacy in trust evaluation Fusing generative AI techniques for generating healthcare data Guest editors: Giancarlo Fortino, PhD University of Calabria, Arcavacata di Rende, Italy. g.fortino@unical.it David Camacho, PhD Universidad Politécnica Madrid, Madrid, Spain. david.camacho@upm.es Min Chen, PhD South China University of Technology, Guangzhou, China.minchen@ieee.org Amit Kumar Singh, PhD National Institute of Technology Patna, Patna, India.amit.singh@nitp.ac.in Xiaohui Tao, PhD University of Southern Queensland, Toowoomba, Australia.

Special Issue on Underwater Optical Applications of Multi-source Information Fusion
截稿日期: 2024-12-15

The exploration and study of underwater environments crucially depend on acquiring high-quality imagery, challenged by factors like limited visibility and light scattering. Multi-source information fusion stands out as a key strategy, integrating multi-modal data and multi-model outputs to significantly enhance the analysis of underwater images. This approach leverages diverse sensor data—such as sonar, optical, and infrared—and employs advanced machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies. It aims to improve the accuracy of object detection, classification, and environmental understanding. We invite scholars to share their innovative research on multi-source information fusion for enhancing underwater imaging and surveillance capabilities. Submissions are encouraged to explore multi-modal processing, multi-model fusion techniques, and the application of large models in underwater environment analysis. This special issue aims to highlight technological advancements and expand applications in underwater imaging, addressing the complex challenges of accurately capturing and analyzing underwater scenes. This special issue will focus on the following topics: Create an underwater multi-modal dataset (open source); Develop high-quality standard datasets for water-related optical images, underwater object detection, and underwater video; Implementing constrained underwater image fusion using deep learning or traditional techniques; Enhance the image quality of complex underwater environments (murky, low-light, blurry, etc.) through information fusion; Implement underwater object detection using acoustic and optical data; Enhance the quality of water-related optical images using deep learning-based multi-modal data fusion; Enhance water-related optical image information using optical imaging models; Utilize data fusion in AUVs for marine environmental monitoring, aquaculture, and underwater security; Employ advanced technology to decouple the interlinked degradation clues in underwater environments.

Special Issue on Mixture of Experts (MoE) and Ensemble Learning for Big Data
截稿日期: 2024-12-31

In the age of artificial intelligence and the digital economy, data analysis and model building are considered compulsory processes in many applications. In this process, machine learning algorithms become important and valuable tools because pattern recognition, knowledge discovery from data for decision-making, and models learned from data for intelligent operations are enabled by efficient and effective algorithms. As the complexity of the operational processes increases, the complexity and diversity of the collected data also increase, which results in more algorithms being developed to satisfy the needs of data analysis. There are several theoretical and technical challenges in developing efficient, scalable, and approximate computing methods for complex big data. This special issue aims to address the most recent developments and research findings related to the intersection of AI, NLP, and big data computing, focusing on areas like mixture of experts (MoE), parallel and distributed processing, approximate computing, intelligent data analysis, dynamic information systems, ensemble learning, large language model (LLM), etc. This issue strives to provide a platform for researchers and practitioners worldwide, encouraging innovative, cutting-edge, and state-of-the-art theoretical and applied solutions that can tackle the challenges associated with big data computing. It endeavors to promote discussions, stimulate ideas, and foster collaborations towards developing advanced, scalable, and intelligent computing systems. The articles will provide cross-disciplinary innovative research ideas and application results for mixture of experts (MoE) and ensemble learning for big data including novel theory, algorithms, and applications. Manuscript submissions are encouraged for a broad theme of related topics, including but not limited to: Emerging mixture of experts (MoE) model Ensemble distributed machine learning algorithms Simplification and compression techniques for machine learning models Data and model parallelism for large language model (LLM) Distributed computing for low-consumption computing Scalable data mining for big data analytics Energy-efficient AI models and applications Large and multi-modal data processing Feature fusion-based data augmentation in a resource-limited computing scenario Data-centric perspective to build efficient and trustworthy information service applications Guest editors: Mohammad Sultan Mahmud, Ph.D Shenzhen University, Shenzhen, China.
