Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The importance and usefulness of subjects and topics involving social data and artificial intelligence are becoming widely recognized.
In this Special Issue, we cordially invite and welcome review, expository, and original research articles dealing with the recent advances in the subjects of social data and artificial intelligence, and potentially their links to Cyberspace.
Cyberspace, the seamless integration of physical, social, and mental spaces, is an integral part of our society, ranging from learning and entertainment to business and cultural activities, and so on. However, there are a number of pressing challenges associated with cyberspace. For example, how do we strike a balance between the need for strong cybersecurity and preserving the privacy of ordinary citizens?
This Special Issue has emerged from the International Conference on Social Data and Artificial Intelligence (SDAI 2020) held in Toronto, Canada on 26–27 May 2020 and the IEEE Cyber Science and Technology Congress (CyberSciTech 2020) which will also be held in Canada (CyberSciTech 2020, Calgary, Canada, 22–26 June 2020).
To address the challenges described for both conferences, there is a need to establish new science and research portfolios that incorporate social data and artificial intelligence alone or in combination with cyber-physical, cyber-social, cyber-intelligent, and cyber-life technologies in a cohesive and efficient manner.
