International Conference on Cyber-enabled Distributed Computing and Knowledge Discovery (CyberC-2024) Workshop on
Advanced Optimization and Learning for
Distributed and Intelligent Systems
Call for Papers
Fueled by the seamless integration of wireless communications, signal processing, edge computing, and artificial intelligence (AI), AI model training and inference can now be conducted over wireless networks, leveraging vast amounts of distributed data from heterogeneous users. This gives rise to distributed and intelligent systems, such as intelligent transportation, smart healthcare, and industrial IoT. Nevertheless, the imperfections and heterogeneity of these networks necessitate the optimization of data sensing, processing, transmission, and analytics to facilitate efficient distributed AI model training in distributed and intelligent systems. Moreover, the dynamic nature of system dynamics and user demands calls for the design of machine learning and optimization strategies that can achieve efficient, adaptive, and real-time AI model inference—a task that poses significant challenges. This workshop aims to convene experts and researchers from academia and industry to tackle both fundamental and practical issues related to advanced optimization and learning for distributed and intelligent systems.
The organizing committee cordially invites submissions of original, unpublished, high-quality research papers that contribute to the development of advanced optimization and learning for distributed and intelligent systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Optimization theory and algorithms for distributed and intelligent systems
Deep learning theory and algorithms for distributed and intelligent systems
Statistical learning theory and algorithms for distributed and intelligent systems
Signal processing for distributed and intelligent systems
Deep reinforcement learning for distributed and intelligent systems
