4th edition of AIPR will be held in
Huaqiao University, located in
Xiamen, China during
September 17-19, 2021. AIPR2021 is mainly organised by
Huaqiao University, co-sponsored by Wuhan Institute of Technology
and technically supported by North China University of Technology, International Academy of Computing Technology, etc.
Today, AI is surrounding us, it is coordinated into our every day lives. Artificial Intelligence is empowering machines to behave like humans by adding Emotional Quotient(EQ) to them. Artificial intelligence is a blooming technological advancement, from software’s like Alexa, to basic human command system. Big data can be used to speed up AI development and soon AI will significantly impact our everyday lives. AI is the future and it’s here to stay. In the future, there will be a greater demand for people who can program machines to “think” and enrich human lives. A pattern is a short description of the data. Pattern recognition is how agents make predictions, which is a central problem in AI. Pattern recognition forms the basis of learning and action for all living things in nature. The importance of Pattern Recognition can be traced from its needs in daily life- pattern recognition plays an important role: reading texts, identifying people, retrieving objects, or finding the way in a city. Once patterns are established, learned from some examples or from a teacher, we are able to classify new objects or phenomena into a class of known patterns. Pattern Recognition is a vast area of research and there are endless number of possibilities as pattern recognition is still under research as it is getting more futuristic and intelligent with a great affect in human life in a positive manner.
AIPR conference is intended to foster the dissemination of state-of-the-art research in the area of Artificial Intelligence & Pattern Recognition and the fundamental interaction between them. Authors are invited to submit regular research papers on all related areas. Papers exploring new directions or areas will receive a thorough and encouraging review.
