Explainable AI (XAI) is an upcoming research field in the domain of machine learning. This book aims to provide a detailed description of the topics related to XAI and Blockchain. These two technologies can benefit each other, and the research outcomes will benefit society in multiple ways. Existing AI systems make decisions in a black box manner. Explainable AI delineates how an AI system arrived at a particular decision. It inspects the steps and models that are responsible for making a particular decision. It is an upcoming trend that aims at providing explanations to the AI decisions. Blockchain is emerging as an effective technique for XAI. It enables accessibility to digital ledgers amongst the various AI agents. The AI agents collaborate using consensus and decisions are saved on Blocks. These blocks can be traced back but cannot be changed. Thus, the combination of AI with blockchain provides transparency and visibility to all AI decisions. BlockXAI is also being widely used for improving data security and intelligence. The decisions made are consensus based and decentralized leading to highly efficient AI systems. This book also covers topics that present the convergence of Blockchain with explainable AI and will provide researchers, academics, and industry experts with a complete guide to BlockXAI.

ISBN: 1394214227

This book provides a comprehensive exploration of computational intelligence techniques and their applications, offering valuable insights into advanced information processing, machine learning concepts, and their impact on agile manufacturing systems. Computational Intelligence presents a new concept for advanced information processing. Computational Intelligence (CI) is the principle, architecture, implementation, and growth of machine learning concepts that are physiologically and semantically inspired. Computational Intelligence methods aim to develop an approach to evaluating and creating flexible processing of human information, such as sensing, understanding, learning, recognizing, and thinking. The Artificial Neural Network simulates the human nervous system’s physiological characteristics and has been implemented numerically for non-linear mapping. Fuzzy Logic Systems simulate the human brain’s psychological characteristics and have been used for linguistic translation through membership functions and bioinformatics. The Genetic Algorithm simulates computer evolution and has been applied to solve problems with optimization algorithms for improvements in diagnostic and treatment technologies for various diseases. To expand the agility and learning capacity of manufacturing systems, these methods play essential roles. This book will express the computer vision techniques that make manufacturing systems more flexible, efficient, robust, adaptive, and productive by examining many applications and research into computational intelligence techniques concerning the main problems in design, making plans, and manufacturing goods in agile manufacturing systems.
