Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are set to revolutionize all industries, and the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) field is no exception. While ML, especially deep learning models, achieve great performance in terms of accuracy, the outcomes provided are not amenable to human scrutiny and can hardly be explained. This can be very problematic, especially for systems of a safety-critical nature such as transportation systems. Explainable AI (XAI) methods have been proposed to tackle this issue by producing human interpretable representations of machine learning models while maintaining performance. These methods hold the potential to increase public acceptance and trust in AI-based ITS. FEATURES: Provides the necessary background for newcomers to the field (both academics and interested practitioners) Presents a timely snapshot of explainable and interpretable models in ITS applications Discusses ethical, societal, and legal implications of adopting XAI in the context of ITS Identifies future research directions and open problems

Thanks to rapid technological developments in terms of Computational Intelligence, smart tools have been playing active roles in daily life. It is clear that the 21st century has brought about many advantages in using high-level computation and communication solutions to deal with real-world problems; however, more technologies bring more changes to society. In this sense, the concept of smart cities has been a widely discussed topic in terms of society and Artificial Intelligence-oriented research efforts. The rise of smart cities is a transformation of both community and technology use habits, and there are many different research orientations to shape a better future. The objective of this book is to focus on Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) in smart city development. As recently designed, advanced smart systems require intense use of complex computational solutions (i.e., Deep Learning, Big Data, IoT architectures), the mechanisms of these systems become ‘black-box’ to users. As this means that there is no clear clue about what is going on within these systems, anxieties regarding ensuring trustworthy tools also rise. In recent years, attempts have been made to solve this issue with the additional use of XAI methods to improve transparency levels. This book provides a timely, global reference source about cutting-edge research efforts to ensure the XAI factor in smart city-oriented developments. The book includes both positive and negative outcomes, as well as future insights and the societal and technical aspects of XAI-based smart city research efforts. This book contains nineteen contributions beginning with a presentation of the background of XAI techniques and sustainable smart-city applications. It then continues with chapters discussing XAI for Smart Healthcare, Smart Education, Smart Transportation, Smart Environment, Smart Urbanization and Governance, and Cyber Security for Smart Cities.

This book presents that explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) is going to replace the traditional artificial, machine learning, deep learning algorithms which work as a black box as of today. To understand the algorithms better and interpret the complex networks of these algorithms, XAI plays a vital role. In last few decades, we have embraced AI in our daily life to solve a plethora of problems, one of the notable problems is cyber security. In coming years, the traditional AI algorithms are not able to address the zero-day cyber attacks, and hence, to capitalize on the AI algorithms, it is absolutely important to focus more on XAI. Hence, this book serves as an excellent reference for those who are working in cyber security and artificial intelligence.

The chasm between the physical capabilities of Intelligent Robotics and Autonomous Systems (IRAS) and their cognitive potential presents a formidable challenge. While these machines exhibit astonishing strength, precision, and speed, their intelligence and adaptability lag far behind. This inherent limitation obstructs the realization of autonomous systems that could reshape industries, from self-driving vehicles to industrial automation. The solution to this dilemma is unveiled within the pages of Modeling, Simulation, and Control of AI Robotics and Autonomous Systems. Find within the pages of this book answers for the cognitive deficit within IRAS. While these systems boast remarkable physical capabilities, their potential for intelligent decision-making and adaptation remains stunted, thereby bringing innovation to a halt. Solving this issue would mean the re-acceleration of multiple industries that could utilize automation to prevent humans from needing to do work that is dangerous, and could revolutionize transportation, and more.
