To address challenges and issues in the transmission of electricity through the traditional grid, the concepts of smart grids and demand response have been developed. In such systems, a large amount of data is generated daily from various sources such as power generation (e.g., wind turbines), transmission and distribution (microgrids and fault detectors), load management (smart meters and smart electric appliances). Thanks to recent advancements in big data and computing technologies, Deep Learning (DL) can be leveraged to learn the patterns from the generated data and predict the demand for electricity and peak hours. Motivated by the advantages of deep learning in smart grids, this paper sets to provide a comprehensive survey on the application of DL for intelligent smart grids and demand response. Firstly, we present the fundamental of DL, smart grids, demand response, and the motivation behind the use of DL. Secondly, we review the state-of-the-art applications of DL in smart grids and demand response, including electric load forecasting, state estimation, energy theft detection, energy sharing and trading. Furthermore, we illustrate the practicality of DL via various use cases and projects. Finally, we highlight the challenges presented in existing research works and highlight important issues and potential directions in the use of DL for smart grids and demand response.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48633,"journal":{"name":"Computer Science Review","volume":"51 ","pages":"Article 100617"},"PeriodicalIF":12.9,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1574013724000017/pdfft?md5=37a2ff44234d359888c071095b8d9b65&pid=1-s2.0-S1574013724000017-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139738725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast to most other recommendation domains, which predominantly rely on collaborative filtering (CF) techniques, music recommenders have traditionally embraced content-based (CB) approaches. In the past years, music recommendation models that leverage collaborative and content data – which we refer to as content-driven models – have been replacing pure CF or CB models. In this survey, we review 55 articles on content-driven music recommendation. Based on a thorough literature analysis, we first propose an onion model comprising five layers, each of which corresponds to a category of music content we identified: signal, embedded metadata, expert-generated content, user-generated content, and derivative content. We provide a detailed characterization of each category along several dimensions. Second, we identify six overarching challenges, according to which we organize our main discussion: increasing recommendation diversity and novelty, providing transparency and explanations, accomplishing context-awareness, recommending sequences of music, improving scalability and efficiency, and alleviating cold start. Each article addresses one or more of these challenges and is categorized according to the content layers of our onion model, the article’s goal(s), and main methodological choices. Furthermore, articles are discussed in temporal order to shed light on the evolution of content-driven music recommendation strategies. Finally, we provide our personal selection of the persisting grand challenges which are still waiting to be solved in future research endeavors.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48633,"journal":{"name":"Computer Science Review","volume":"51 ","pages":"Article 100618"},"PeriodicalIF":12.9,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1574013724000029/pdfft?md5=26989268f58d86868e6b0424feb8917a&pid=1-s2.0-S1574013724000029-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139577454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Quantum computing is the process of performing calculations using quantum mechanics. This field studies the quantum behavior of certain subatomic particles (photons, electrons, etc.) for subsequent use in performing calculations, as well as for large-scale information processing. These advantages are achieved through the use of quantum features, such as entanglement or superposition. These capabilities can give quantum computers an advantage in terms of computational time and cost over classical computers. Nowadays, scientific challenges are impossible to perform by classical computation due to computational complexity (more bytes than atoms in the observable universe) or the time it would take (thousands of years), and quantum computation is the only known answer. However, current quantum devices do not have yet the necessary qubits and are not fault-tolerant enough to achieve these goals. Nonetheless, there are other fields like machine learning, finance, or chemistry where quantum computation could be useful with current quantum devices. This manuscript aims to present a review of the literature published between 2017 and 2023 to identify, analyze, and classify the different types of algorithms used in quantum machine learning and their applications. The methodology follows the guidelines related to Systematic Literature Review methods, such as the one proposed by Kitchenham and other authors in the software engineering field. Consequently, this study identified 94 articles that used quantum machine learning techniques and algorithms and shows their implementation using computational quantum circuits or <em>ansatzs</em>. The main types of found algorithms are quantum implementations of classical machine learning algorithms, such as support vector machines or the k-nearest neighbor model, and classical deep learning algorithms, like quantum neural networks. One of the most relevant applications in the machine learning field is image classification. Many articles, especially within the classification, try to solve problems currently answered by classical machine learning but using quantum devices and algorithms. Even though results are promising, quantum machine learning is far from achieving its full potential. An improvement in quantum hardware is required for this potential to be achieved since the existing quantum computers lack enough quality, speed, and scale to allow quantum computing to achieve its full potential.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48633,"journal":{"name":"Computer Science Review","volume":"51 ","pages":"Article 100619"},"PeriodicalIF":12.9,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1574013724000030/pdfft?md5=44d55da038269bf79fd19532c50aed5d&pid=1-s2.0-S1574013724000030-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139550991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Server placement is a crucial emerging problem in both typical and edge types of MCC, different proposed methods of which are reviewed and evaluated in this paper. Proper placement of servers leads to more efficient utilization of these servers, reduces their response time and optimizes their energy consumption. A variety of techniques and approaches, including machine learning-based techniques, evolutionary models, optimization algorithms, heuristics and meta-heuristics have been employed by different server placement methods of the literature to find the optimal deployment map of servers. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of these server placement methods in edge computing, fog computing and cloudlet, investigates their various aspects, dimensions and objectives, and evaluates their strengths and weaknesses.

Changes in the nature and properties of diverse real-time systems are associated with physical properties modification due to environmental factors. These physics-based object properties features attract the researchers’ attention while developing solutions to real-life problems. But, the detection and prediction of physical properties change are very diverse, covering many physics laws and object properties (material, shape, gravitational force, color, state change) which append complexity to these tasks. Instead of well-understood physics laws, elucidating physics laws requires substantial manual modeling with the help of standardized equations and associated factors. To adopt these physical laws to get instinctive and effective outcomes, researchers started applying computational models to learn changing property behavior as a substitute for using handcrafted and equipment-generated variable states. If physical properties detection challenges are not anticipated and required measures are not precluded, the upcoming computational model-driven physical object changing will not be able to serve appropriately. Therefore, this survey paper is drafted to demonstrate comprehensive theoretical and empirical studies of physical object properties detection and prediction. Furthermore, a generic paradigm is proposed to work in this direction along with characterization parameters of numerous physical object properties. A brief summarization of applicable machine learning, deep learning, and metaheuristic approaches is presented. An extensive list of released and openly available datasets for varying objects and parameters rendered for researchers.
