This book presents a compilation of selected papers from the 17th IEEE International Conference on Machine Learning and Applications (IEEE ICMLA 2018), focusing on use of deep learning technology in application like game playing, medical applications, video analytics, regression/classification, object detection/recognition and robotic control in industrial environments. It highlights novel ways of using deep neural networks to solve real-world problems, and also offers insights into deep learning architectures and algorithms, making it an essential reference guide for academic researchers, professionals, software engineers in industry, and innovative product developers.

This book constitutes selected and revised papers from the First Mediterranean Forum - Data Science Conference, MeFDATA 2020, held in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, in October 2020. The 11 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from the 26 qualified submissions. The papers are organized in the topical sections on human behaviour and pandemic; applications in medicine; industrial applications; natural language processing.
