Abstract

The rapid convergence of disruptive technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Edge Computing, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Federated Learning, Cybersecurity, and Robotics is transforming organizations and reshaping the landscape of digital innovation. As interconnected systems become ubiquitous, they generate immense data, demand real-time processing, and require robust security frameworks to ensure privacy and resilience.

This Special Session will serve as a platform to explore advances at the intersection of AI and IoT, where breakthrough technologies are being deployed on the edge, safeguarding sensitive data through federated approaches, and pushing the boundaries of AI in real-time and mission-critical applications that may involve cyber-physical systems. More precisely, the contribution of Machine Learning in general and Artificial Neural Networks in particular to this field will be explored. 

Session chairs invite researchers, practitioners, and industry leaders to share insights and discuss challenges, best practices, and recent innovations. Session topics include but are not limited to:

  • IoT-enabled data collection and processing for real-time smart decision-making. 
  • Edge AI solutions for optimized on-device protection. 
  • Federated learning as a framework for distributed and privacy-preserving model training. 
  • Advanced cybersecurity strategies for safeguarding connected devices. 
  • Adversarial machine learning for robust and trustworthy AI-based cybersecurity solutions Video and Image Processing 

Through these discussions, we aim to foster collaboration and inspire new approaches to harnessing data, delivering intelligent automation, and securing next-generation connected systems.

By bringing together experts across these fields, we aim to deepen our understanding of how these technologies can be integrated and advanced to drive the future of smart, secure, and autonomous systems. This session will serve as a bridge between cutting-edge research and real-world applications, inspiring a collaborative vision for the future of interconnected and intelligent systems.
