With the rapid increase in the use of smart devices, we are now able to collect big data on a daily basis. The data we are gather- ing and related problems are becoming more complex and uncer- tain. Researchers have therefore turned to AI as an efficient way of dealing with the problems created by big data. This special issue of ZTE Communications will be dedicated to development, trends, challenges, and current practices in artificial intelligence for the Internet of Things. Position papers, technology overviews, and case studies are all welcome. Appropriate topics include but are not limited to：展开更多
