Deep Learning‐Enabled Smart IoT: System, Applications and Challenges

The advancements in deep learning models and techniques have paved the way toward designing and developing more sophisticated and intelligent IoT-based systems. These systems enable collecting, storing, processing, and analyzing a large amount of data which was considered a big challenge in conventional sensor-based systems. While enabling user-level new applications, these systems are also essential to critical, distributed sensory, and industry 4.0 environments that integrate various sensors. However, the heterogeneous nature of devices and underlying software makes it challenging to deal with their compatibility and complexity. Moreover, the highly distributed nature of the IoT networks exacerbates the problems of communication, aggregation, data collection, scalability, openness, transparency, concurrency, security, and failure handling. In this context, this special issue seeks papers that address the challenges, and opportunities in deep learning-enabled smart IoT-based systems as well as their applications.
