Sensor Collected Intelligence: Current Trends and Advances in Computer-Aided Intelligent Environmental Data Engineering

Current Trends and Advances in Computer-Aided Intelligent Environmental Data Engineering merges two engineering disciplines: computer engineering and environmental engineering.The book presents the latest finding on how data science and AI-based tools are being applied in environmental engineering research. This application involves multiple domains such as data science and artificial intelligence to transform the data collected by intelligent sensors into relevant and reliable information to support decision making. These tools include fuzzy logic, knowledge-based systems, particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithms, Monte Carlo simulation, artificial neural networks, support vector machine, boosted regression tree, simulated annealing, ant colony algorithm, decision tree, immune algorithm, and imperialist competitive algorithm.This book is a fundamental information source because it is the first book to present the foundational reference material in this new research field. Furthermore, it gives a critical overviewof the latest cross-domain research findings and technological developments on the recent advances in computer-aided intelligent environmental data engineering. Captures the application of data science and artificial intelligence for a broader spectrum of environmental engineering problems Presents methods and procedures as well as case studies where state-of-the-art technologies are applied in actual environmental scenarios Offers a compilation of essential and critical reviews on the application of data science and artificial intelligence to the entire spectrum of environmental engineering
