Intelligent Computing for Real-World Digital Transformation ; Volume – II : Artificial Intelligence for Smart Systems, Vision, and Secure Digital Infrastructure

Intelligent Computing for Real-World Digital Transformation; Volume II: Artificial Intelligence for Smart Systems, Vision, and Secure Digital Infrastructure brings together contemporary research and applied innovations that enable scalable, resilient, and intelligent digital ecosystems. This volume focuses on three high-impact pillars: AI for smart systems, computer vision and visual analytics, and secure digital infrastructure. The chapters explore machine learning and deep learning methods for IoT and cyber-physical systems, intelligent automation, smart cities, precision agriculture, industrial monitoring, and energy-aware optimization. A dedicated vision track presents advances in image/video understanding, detection and tracking, medical and remote-sensing vision, multimodal learning, and edge AI for real-time perception. The security track addresses trustworthy AI, anomaly detection, secure communication, privacy-preserving learning, intrusion detection, blockchain-enabled assurance, and AI-driven risk intelligence for critical infrastructures. With a strong emphasis on deployment realities data pipelines, evaluation protocols, hardware constraints, and governance this volume serves as a practical reference for researchers, students, and practitioners building robust AI-powered smart applications and secure digital services for next-generation transformation.
