      Recent Trends in Swarm Intelligence Enabled Research for Engineering Applications focuses on recent, up-to-date technologies, combining other intelligent tools with swarm intelligence techniques to yield robust and failsafe solutions to real world problems. This book aims to provide audiences with a platform to learn and gain insights into the latest developments in hybrid swarm intelligence. It will be useful to researchers, engineers, developers, practitioners, and graduate students working in the major and interdisciplinary areas of computational intelligence, communication systems, computer networks, and soft computing.With the advent of data-intensive applications, the elimination of redundancy in disseminated information has become a serious challenge for researchers who are on the lookout for evolving metaheuristic algorithms which can explore and exploit the information feature space to derive the optimal settings for specific applications. Swarm intelligence algorithms have developed as one of the most widely used metaheuristic techniques for addressing this challenge in an effective way. Inspired by the behavior of a swarm of bees, these swarm intelligence techniques emulate the corresponding natural instincts to derive optimal solutions for data-intensive applications.

      Responsible Artificial Intelligence Re-engineering the Global Public Health Ecosystem: A Humanity Worth Saving is the first comprehensive book showing how trustworthy AI can revolutionize decolonized global public health. It explains how it works as an ecosystem and how it can be fixed to equitably empower us all to solve the defining crises of our era, from poverty to pandemics, climate to conflicts, debt to divisions. It is written from the first-hand perspective of the world’s first triple doctorate trained physician-data scientist and ethicist who has cared for more than 10,000 patients and authored 5 AI textbooks and more than 400 scientific and ethics papers. This essential resource integrates science, political economics, and ethics to unite our unique cultures, belief systems, institutions, and governments. In doing so, it is meant to give humanity a fighting chance against shared existential threats through cooperation and managed strategic competition for integral sustainable development.Taking seriously diverse voices, perspectives, and insights from the Global North and the Global South, this book uses concrete examples backed up by clear explanations to elucidate the current failures, emerging successes, and societal trends of global public health. It shows how a small number of powerful governments and corporations—amid digitalization, deglobalization, and demographic shifts—dominate global health, and how we can re-engineer a better future for it both societally and technologically. The book spans health breakthroughs in federated data architectures, machine learning, deep learning, swarm learning, quantum computing, blockchain, agile data governance and solidarity, value blocks (of democracies and autocracies), adaptive value supply chains, social networks, pandemics, health financing, universal health coverage, public–private partnerships, healthcare system design, precision agriculture, clean energy, human security, and multicultural global ethics. This book therefore is meant to provide a clear, coherent, and actionable guide equipping students, practitioners, researchers, policymakers, and leaders in digital technology, public health, healthcare, health policy, public policy, political economics, and ethics to generate the solutions that will define humanity’s next era—while recovering what that humanity means, and why it is worth saving.

      Sequences and the de Bruijn Graph: Properties, Constructions, and Applications explores the foundations of theoretical mathematical concepts and their important applications to computer science, electrical engineering, and bioinformatics. The book introduces the various concepts, ideas, and techniques associated with the use of the de Bruijn Graph, providing comprehensive coverage of sequence classification, one-dimensional and two-dimensional properties, constructions, and interconnection networks. This book is suitable for researchers, graduate students, professors, and professionals working in the fields of applied mathematics, electrical engineering, computer science, and bioinformatics.The de Bruijn graph was defined in 1946 to enumerate the number of closed sequences where each n-tuple appears exactly once as a window in a sequence. Through the years, the graph and its sequences have found numerous applications – in space technology, wireless communication, cryptography, parallel computation, genome assembly, DNA storage, and microbiome research, among others.
