Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Hybrid artificial intelligence (AI) is a field that seeks to synergize the best aspects of neural networks and other domain techniques, such as symbolic AI and human knowledge. The hybrid AI model not only utilizes neural networks' ability to extract patterns from massive data sets, but also incorporates symbolic AI techniques and human knowledge to overcome the limitations of neural networks. By combining the strengths of different approaches, hybrid AI is expected to address the most challenging problems in the field by capturing, mapping, structuring, and delivering knowledge or data in an understandable, readable, and "machine-retrievable" format.

This Special Issue aims to highlight the recent advances in hybrid AI, including both developments in individual domains and innovative hybrid AI techniques that incorporate domain knowledge or symbolic AI from both theoretical and practical perspectives. We welcome original research papers and comprehensive literature reviews that provide unique scientific insights into the topic. We encourage submissions that showcase hybrid AI's potential to transform various domains, including healthcare, finance, engineering, etc. Furthermore, this Special Issue aims to foster discussions and collaborations among researchers and practitioners to push the boundaries of hybrid AI further and accelerate its applications in real-world scenarios. We welcome papers that present innovative applications of hybrid AI in industry or academia, as well as those that demonstrate the scalability, interpretability, and generalization of hybrid AI models. Ultimately, we believe that this Special Issue will provide a platform for researchers to exchange ideas, share best practices, and shape the future of hybrid AI.

University students, as a special group, face multiple psychological pressures and challenges, making them susceptible to social anxiety disorder. However, there are currently no articles using machine learning algorithms to identify predictors of social anxiety disorder in university students. This study aims to use a stacked ensemble model to predict social anxiety disorder in university students and compare it with other machine learning models to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model. AUC and F1 are used as classification evaluation metrics. The experimental results show that in this dataset, the model combining logistic regression, Naive Bayes, and KNN algorithms as the first layer and Naive Bayes as the second layer performs better than traditional machine learning algorithms. This provides a new approach to studying social anxiety disorder. Full article

As multiprocessor (or multicore) real-time systems become popular, there has been much research on multiprocessor real-time scheduling algorithms. This work evaluates EDZL (Earliest Deadline until Zero Laxity), a scheduling algorithm for real-time multiprocessor systems. First, we compare the performance of EDZL schedulability tests. We measure and compare the ratio of task sets admitted by each test. We also investigate the dominance between EDZL schedulability tests and discover that the union of the demand-based test and the utilization-based test is an effective combination. Second, we compare the schedulability of EDZL and EDF(k). We prove that the union of the EDZL schedulability tests dominates the EDF(k) schedulability test, i.e., the union of the EDZL schedulability tests can admit all task sets admitted by the EDF(k) schedulability test. We also compare the schedulability of EDZL and EDF(k) through scheduling simulation by measuring the ratio of successfully scheduled task sets. EDZL can successfully schedule 7.0% more task sets than EDF(k). Full article
