Soft Computing in Industry 5.0 for Sustainability

軟計算和工業5.0是兩個不同的概念，當它們結合時，能對各行各業的可持續性倡議產生重大影響。軟計算是人工智慧（AI）的一個子領域，旨在解決那些具有不確定性、不精確性和部分真理特徵的問題。它涵蓋了各種計算技術，如模糊邏輯、神經網絡、遺傳算法和機器學習，這些技術使機器能以更類似人類的方式處理複雜和不確定的數據。軟計算技術在可持續性努力中尤其有價值，因為它們能處理環境和社會背景中經常出現的非線性關係和不確定數據。例如，它們可以用來優化工業中的能源消耗、廢物管理和資源配置，考慮各種因素和權衡。

本書突顯了在經典機器學習、深度學習、物聯網（IoT）、工業物聯網（IIoT）、區塊鏈、知識表示、知識管理、大數據和自然語言處理（NLP）等領域的智能系統最新創新。本書包含了許多當代文章，來自於在許多領域工作的科學家和實踐者，這些領域中軟計算、智能系統和IIoT可以開創新局。智能系統和物聯網現在幾乎在每個領域都是必不可少的技術。從農業到工業再到醫療保健，智能系統和IIoT的範疇廣泛如地平線。如今，這些技術在發達國家被廣泛使用，但在新興國家仍處於早期階段。

本書的主要讀者為高年級本科生、研究生、實踐者、研究人員、學者、工業界人士及在核心計算機科學、電氣工程、機械工程、環境工程和農業工程等領域工作的專業人士。本書的次要讀者為在製造、農業、遙感、環境工程、醫療保健、智慧城市、智慧農業、供應鏈管理和水文等領域工作的個人。
