This book presents selected peer-reviewed papers from the International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Data Engineering (AIDE 2019). The topics covered are broadly divided into four groups: artificial intelligence, machine vision and robotics, ambient intelligence, and data engineering. The book discusses recent technological advances in the emerging fields of artificial intelligence, machine learning, robotics, virtual reality, augmented reality, bioinformatics, intelligent systems, cognitive systems, computational intelligence, neural networks, evolutionary computation, speech processing, Internet of Things, big data challenges, data mining, information retrieval, and natural language processing. Given its scope, this book can be useful for students, researchers, and professionals interested in the growing applications of artificial intelligence and data engineering.
Dr. Niranjan N. Chiplunkar is currently a Professor at the Department of Computer Science & Engineering and Principal of NMAM Institute of Technology, Nitte, Udupi, India.
