Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a well-established branch of computer science concerned with making machines smart enough to perform computationally large or complex tasks that normally require human intelligence; furthermore, it comprises a combination of technologies that can obtain insights and patterns from a massive amount of data which is a crucial element of forensic analysis. This chapter focuses on AI and its subfields: machine learning and deep learning—in general—and also details AI and data mining techniques pertaining to digital forensics. In highlighting the current shortcomings of prevailing approaches, we propose a new approach to offer a clearer insight into potential data, and/or detect variables of interest, as well as assess the future of digital forensics in the concluding section.
