The JACIII was first published in 1997, and 2017 marks its 20th anniversary. During the last two decades, the research fields in computational intelligence have rapidly evolved owing to the spread of the Internet, performance improvement of computers, and accumulation of scientific knowledge. To celebrate this 20th anniversary, we have selected 6 important research areas from the JACIII scope, and invited outstanding researchers from each of these areas to contribute papers about the progress and major topics in those areas during the past 20 years. Submitted paper went through a peer-review process by distinguished professors to further improve the quality. The research areas selected were computational intelligence, fuzzy intelligence, intelligent robots, artificial intelligence and web intelligence, data mining, and smart grids. Each of those paper covers broad topics appeared in the research areas, from which readers could grasp what happened during the past 20 years. We also hope readers could find some hints about future directions of their own researches towards the next 20 years. <strong>Invited Paper 1: Computational Intelligence: Retrospection and Future</strong> Author: Witold Pedrycz (University of Alberta, Canada) <strong>Invited Paper 2: Fuzzy Inference: Its Past and Prospects</strong> Authors: Kiyohiko Uehara (Ibaraki University, Japan) and Kaoru Hirota (Beijing Institute of Technology, China) <strong>Invited Paper 3: Relationship Between Human and Robot in Nonverbal Communication</strong> Authors: Yukiko Nakagawa and Noriaki Nakagawa (RT Corporation, Japan) <strong>Invited Paper 4: Web Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence</strong> Author: Yasufumi Takama (Tokyo Metropolitan University, Japan) <strong>Invited Paper 5: A Review of Data Mining Techniques and Applications</strong> Authors: Ratchakoon Pruengkarn, Kok Wai Wong, and Chun Che Fung (Murdoch University, Australia) <strong>Invited Paper 6: Development and Current State of Smart Grids: A Review</strong> Author: Ken Nagasaka (Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, Japan)

This paper presents the results about using a methodology that combines two artificial intelligence (AI) models to predict the oil, water and gas production in a Colombian petroleum field. By combining fuzzy logic (FL) and artificial neural networks (ANN) a novelty data mining procedure is implemented, including a data imputation strategy. The FL tool determines the most useful variables or parameters to include into each well production model. ANN and FIS (fuzzy inference systems) predictive models identification is developed after the data mining process. The FIS models are capable to predict specific behaviors, while ANN models are able to forecast an average behavior. The combined use of both tools under few iterative steps, allows to improve forecasting of well behavior until reach a specified accuracy level. The proposed data imputation procedure is the key element to correct false or to complete void positions into operation data used to identify models for a typical oil production field. At the end, two models are obtained for each well product, conforming an interesting tool given the best accurate prediction of fluid phase production.

AbstractThis paper argues that most of the problems that actuaries have to deal with in the context of non-life insurance can be usefully cast in the framework of computational intelligence (a.k.a. artificial intelligence), the discipline that studies the design of agents which exhibit intelligent behaviour. Finding an adequate framework for actuarial problems has more than a simply theoretical interest: it also allows a knowledge transfer from the computational intelligence discipline to general insurance, wherever techniques have been developed for problems which are common to both contexts. This has already happened in the past (neural networks, clustering, data mining have all found applications to general insurance) but not systematically, with the result that many useful computational intelligence techniques such as sparsity-based regularisation schemes (a technique for feature selection) are virtually unknown to actuaries.In this first of two papers, we will explore the role of statistical learning in actuarial modelling. We will show that risk costing, which is at the core of pricing, reserving and capital modelling, can be described as a supervised learning problem. Many activities involved in exploratory analysis, such as data mining or feature construction, can be described as unsupervised learning. A comparison of different computational intelligence methods will be carried out, and practical insurance applications (rating factor selection, IBNER analysis) will also be presented.

This article reviews the past-to-present academic literature on artificial intelligence (AI) in journalism. Over the past years, these technologies have attracted the sufficient attention of researchers from various fields of scientific study producing a large number of publications. We have reviewed academic articles published between 2015 and 2021 to provide understanding of the current state of the research on AI in various research areas including journalism. The corpus was gathered by searching publications in two international databases, Scopus and the Web of Science (WoS). 70 empirical studies were selected on the basis of applying AI to journalism. Each article was categorized according to the type of database, period of time, the country of publication, the field of study and the frequency of citations. The applied method of quantitative research allows tracking the development of research within six years in the field of automated journalism. Finally, we put forward several proposals for further research in this field.

In data mining Privacy Preserving Data mining (PPDM) of the important research areas concentrated in recent years which ensures ensuring sensitive information and rule not being revealed. Several methods and techniques were proposed to hide sensitive information and rule in databases. In the past, perturbation-based PPDM was developed to preserve privacy before use and secure mining of association rules were performed in horizontally distributed databases. This paper presents an integrated model for solving the multi-objective factors, data and rule hiding through reinforcement and discrete optimization for data publishing. This is denoted as an integrated Reinforced Social Ant and Discrete Swarm Optimization (RSADSO) model. In RSA-DSO model, both Reinforced Social Ant and Discrete Swarm Optimization perform with the same particles. To start with, sensitive data item hiding is performed through Reinforced Social Ant model. Followed by this performance, sensitive rules are identified and further hidden for data publishing using Discrete Swarm Optimization model. In order to evaluate the RSA-DSO model, it was tested on benchmark dataset. The results show that RSA-DSO model is more efficient in improving the privacy preservation accuracy with minimal time for optimal hiding and also optimizing the generation of sensitive rules.
