Computational intelligence approaches such as neural network, particle swarm
optimization, evolutionary algorithm, fuzzy set, and rough sets are adopted
in many multimedia and industrial applications, like visual based quality
control, image enhancement in consumer electronics, video based recognition
of identity or behaviors, audio based speech recognition for enhanced human
like interaction with machines etc. Despite this growing diffusion, there
are still many possible areas where computational intelligence application
is partial or could be extended and improved, due to the actual limitations
in terms of computational power or strict requirements in terms of assurance
of the results. This special issue aims to investigate the impact of the
adoption of advanced and innovative Computational Intelligence techniques in
multimedia and industrial applications. Authors are expected to discuss some
representative applications to present inspiring models to demonstrate how
computational intelligence could be implemented to solve multimedia
computing and industrial issues and how these issues could be analyzed,
processed, and illustrated by computational intelligence. The special issue
will bring together researchers on different disciplines from academia and
industry with a common objective: go beyond the frontiers of today
multimedia applications of computational intelligence techniques.

- Computational intelligence approaches for industrial applications
- Multimedia signal processing using fuzzy and rough sets 
- Virtual-augmented reality for multimedia application
