CLOSED Call for Papers: Special Issue on Learning Complex Couplings and Interactions

The world is becoming increasingly complex with a major drive to incorporate increasingly intricate coupling relationships and interactions between entities, behaviors, subsystems, and systems and their dynamics and evolution of any kinds and in any domains. Effective modeling in complex couplings and interactions in complex data, behaviors, and systems directly addresses the core nature and challenges of complex problems and is critical for building next-generation intelligent theories and systems to improve machine intelligence and understand real-life complex systems. This Special Issue on learning complex couplings and interactions will collect and report the latest advancements in artificial intelligence and data science theories, models, and applications of modeling complex couplings and interactions in big data, complex behaviors, and complex systems.
