Artificial Intelligence in Communication Systems

Artificial Intelligence in Communication Systems introduces the profound and rapidly expanding role of Artificial Intelligence, particularly within defense technology and its strategic imperatives. The increasing development of Lethal Autonomous Weapon Systems (LAWS) presents significant legal and ethical challenges that demand careful consideration. Beyond military applications, AI's pervasive influence across various sectors necessitates a deep understanding of its societal implications and the methodologies for effectively communicating its scientific advancements.This book delves into the foundational origins and historical evolution of AI, tracing early conceptual developments to contemporary mainstream research focusing on applied AI and integrated architectures. It explores the principles of forecasting future AI trends, the broad societal and strategic consequences of its deployment, and the core concepts of Artificial Neural Networks. Further, it investigates the pursuit of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), including objectives and research activities, and examines Whole Brain Emulation as a pathway to strong AI. Advanced discriminative models like MEMMs and CRFs for sequential data are also thoroughly analyzed.This comprehensive resource is essential for students, researchers, and professionals engaged in artificial intelligence, defense studies, computer science, ethics, and policy-making.
