Abstract Recently, the smart city has evolved as a global
model and several institutions have adopted this concept to
facilitate the citizens with the comfort and quality of life
exploiting the progress in the capabilities of computing,
networking, and data management. All probable aspects of a
smart city are modeled as different components such as
governance, transportation, waste and energy management, and
so on. Artificial Intelligence (AI) based technology is widely
applied in the development of most of the components of a smart
city. In this context, the current article presents a detailed
survey of the latest AI-based solutions in smart city
implementation. The following inferences are made through this
review: (a) AI-based applications for a smart city have been
adopted by various developing and developed countries
worldwide. (b) The components such as town planning,
governance, and education are less explored as compared to
other components. (c) Network-based models including deep
learning models are the most popular as compared to other
models like trees, genetic, linear, and naive models. Finally, it is
observed from the review that AI is an indispensable part of a
smart city currently and will continue to be in the future.

I. INTRODUCTION
An extreme increase in population has resulted in several
issues, particularly in urban areas [1]. The major issues
experienced in urban areas are congestion due to heavy traffic,
environmental pollution, health issues, insufficient water
supply, waste accumulation, etc. The government has initiated
various projects to address these issues and the smart city
mission is one of the projects. The objective of the smart city
project is to facilitate a quality life along with eco-friendly and
reliable services to the city residents by exploiting the advent
of state-of-art technology. The researchers and experts are
working towards the objective and have come up with several
frameworks concerned with smart cities development. The
proposed smart city framework involves various aspects of
urban management resulting in different components. Further,
researchers across the globe have proposed a variety of
solutions to address each component using Internet and
Communication Technology (ICT).
The technologies used in various levels of developing smart
city components can be broadly classified into (a) Learning
techniques (b) Computing technology (c) Communication
technology (d) Data management technology (e) Sensor
technology as represented in figure 1.
Fig. 1. Schematic of various levels of smart city components
implementation, and technologies used
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the widely applied
technology to implement smart city components. The
environment is the main concern when designing a solution
for any of the smart city components. The advancement in AI
and 5G has laid a broad prospectus for various ubiquitous
applications of a smart city including automated vehicles,
healthcare, smart homes, etc., and regular monitoring of the
environment is essential to sustain the quality of living in
society. The study presented in [2][3] has discovered the
potential use of AI in monitoring the environment's health
parameters such as radiation, air quality, water contamination,
emissions, etc. The data plays an important role in AI-based
solutions and the necessary data can be collected from various
sensors as summarized in [4]. The objective of this study is to
explore on use of AI in the design and development of various
components of the smart city framework.
The remaining parts of the article are discussed in the
following order; Next section describes the smart city
components considered in this study. The observation of the
current study concerning the AI and Smart city components
are highlighted and summarized under section III. Finally, the
article is summarized with major inferences of the survey.
II. COMPONENTS OF SMART CITY
The Smart City aims at improving the economic status and
lifestyle of city residents by exploiting the advancement in
technology in recent decades. The government, researchers,
and experts across the globe are striving in this direction and
as a result, various smart city frameworks are available
currently. The framework includes different elements

covering all probable areas of city functioning. The vital
components (figure 2) from different frameworks are
identified and the role of artificial intelligence in these
components is focused on in this article.
Fig. 2. Components of smart city framework
A. Governance and digitization
Decision-making is a crucial aspect of governance
towards the development of a city or a country. The
capabilities of AI are exploited in the design and development
of smart decision-making systems for smart cities. In an
article [5] the authors have developed a chatbot application to
communicate the necessary information between the
government and the common people using Artificial Neural
Network (ANN). Whereas the authors in [6] have outlined a
decision-making process using the regression technique
which guides the government in building smart cities with the
involvement of social innovations. A comprehensive review
of existing research works on the use of AI in implementing
smart governance is presented in [7][8]. The importance of
digitization and the role of AI in the process of transformation
towards digitization is presented in [9] and the key
contributions of AI in building a smart society are discussed
in the research article [10].
B. Smart manufacturing
Smart production and manufacturing are the building
blocks of a city's development. AI is widely applied in the
field of manufacturing at various levels to enhance product
quality and quantity. The article [11] presents a surface
roughness prediction method for 3D printing and [12]
developed a prediction model for lead times. The authors in
[13] have given a material feeding and scrap rate prediction
model whereas a novel model for predicting tensile strength
and plasticity of steel is proposed in [14].
C. Smart security
Smart city applications must ensure the privacy and
security of city residents in all respects. The applications must
be able to take necessary actions to protect users from
intruders and hackers. Artificial intelligence plays an
important role in enhancing the security of smart city
applications. The authors in [15] have presented a technique
to identify the burglars entering the house so that the
counteractions can be performed. The data including
movements, body temperature, and facial features of a person
who entered the house are collected through various sensors.
This data is used to recognize the illegal person's entry inside
the house by using an ANN. The article [16] is focused on the
security aspect of e-governance by ensuring the privacy-
preserve in the smart city environment and the authors have
investigated currently available solutions and the challenges.
Authors have proposed a decentralized secure e-governance
framework using a combination of blockchain technology
and artificial intelligence to enhance privacy through mutual
trust and confidence.
A new paradigm of technology i.e. explainable artificial
intelligence for cyber applications concerning smart cities is
presented in [17]. The authors have discussed the
understandability, transparency, and interoperability
transitions of artificial intelligence while applying it to
implement different autonomous systems of a smart city. The
article [18] presented an intelligent system to monitor and
respond autonomously to the detection of illegal entry into
the house. A deep neural network (Convolution Neural
Network) is used to detect motion and facial recognition. The
security issues faced by the smart city applications and the
countermeasures to overcome the problems are addressed by
the authors in [19]. The privacy and security issues are
addressed at the data collection level using machine learning
techniques. The proposed solution was demonstrated through
smart city applications such as smart health, smart energy,
and smart transportation
D. Smart education
With the belief, that the individual student has a unique
learning style the authors in [20] have presented a machine
learning-based e-learning material suggesting framework.
Suitable study material is suggested for different students
based on their interests and learning styles. The AI-based
classroom applications help the students to enhance their
learning capabilities. There exist various applications
concerning smart classrooms and a review of AI-based
solutions used in classrooms for the teaching-learning
process is discussed in [21]. The authors in [22] have
presented the potential abilities of artificial intelligence in
education from the teacher and student points of view. The
deep insights are presented through the conduction of
interviews with AI experts and technical firm associates. AI-
based learning in education is undergoing various paradigms,
however the authors in [23] have characterized it into three
paradigms namely AI-empowered: learner-as-leader, AI-
directed: learner-as-recipient, and AI-supported: learner-as-
collaborator. The role of AI in fixing the issues concerning
instructional methods in education is systematically
summarized in the article. The vital role of AI in education is
explored by the authors in [24].
E. Smart water
Water is one of the most valuable natural resources
necessary for every living being. Due to industrialization and
population growth water is contaminated and causes life
threats. The presence of trihalomethanes (THM) in

chlorinated water is poisonous but detecting this element in
water is a complicated and time-consuming process. Hence,
the authors in [25] have proposed a THM prediction model
using ANN, SVM, and Gene Expression Programming
(GEP) approaches. Even though the earth is covered with
71% of water, the freshwater percentage is very less.
Conserving the available freshwater is the responsibility of
everyone. Statistics across the globe revealed that most of the
water is wasted because of leakage in the water network.
Therefore, the implementation of an efficient and smart water
network can minimize the water leakage thereby reducing the
water wastage. In this direction, the authors in [26] have
presented a cloud-based model to assess and monitor the
water network across the city using ANN.
The article [27] presents a novel data-driven idea to
forecast the water demand around the city using Machine
Learning (ML) by considering various seasonalities like
daily, weekly, monthly and yearly. Whereas, the authors in
[28] have used Internet of Things to forecast the water
demand thereby ensuring the distributed water supply. The
inflow of reservoirs is predicted through recurrent neural
network in [29]. The application of AI to implement smart
water management schemes is discussed in [30]. A
comprehensive review of existing water management
systems and the technologies used at various levels of their
implementation is presented in [31].
F. Smart town planning
The vital role of AI in the development of autonomous
cities through smart applications is explored and presented in
[32] along with available frameworks. Also, the authors have
proposed a research scope for autonomous city
implementation. A comprehensive study on AI techniques
and their pivotal applications in town planning and
development is discussed in an article [33]. The most popular
and sustainable applications are tested through a case study
from Australia on a testbed. Whereas the research article [34]
is a study that aims at motivating all the stakeholders
concerned with smart city development by providing ideas
and guidance about how AI can be exploited in smart cities.
The vital role of AI in building urban areas and its effect on
socio-economic development is explored in [35]. The authors
observed that the expectation of using AI in city applications
is high particularly in initiatives for smart cities. The article
[36] presents a comprehensive review of how town planning
with AI solves issues of modern society that evolve with the
population growth.
G. Smart energy
The energy is overused with the growth of the population
which leads to environmental and other serious issues. Hence,
the management of energy in an optimized way is essential
for modern society. The authors of the article [37] have
presented a deep study on the application of computational
intelligence to predict the energy load along with the
challenges of energy management and future scope of
research. A reinforcement learning approach is used to
manage the energy consumed in a community through the
pooling method in [38]. The domestic users in a community
are associated with a local energy pool and the users are
permitted to trade freely with a renewable energy pool for a
lower cost. The authors in [39] have proposed a smart
infrastructure for conserving the renewable resources for
smart cities for the future generation. AI technology is the
core part of the infrastructure, and the solution is
demonstrated through a case study from Europe.
The article [40] presents an autonomous system to
manage the energy of an existing smart building using AI.
The authors in [41] have proposed a smart energy
management framework for a smart home using Internet of
Things (IoT) and AI techniques. There are two control
strategies in the proposed framework: scheduling from power
dispatch (supply-side) and control of appliances (demand
side). Both strategies are combined through AI algorithms. A
novel multi-objective approach with the combination of three
distinct AI algorithms is proposed in [42] for efficient
management of energy in smart homes. Whereas the article
[43] presents an energy management system for IoT devices
by considering the aspects of both software and hardware.
And a deep study on AI-based energy management systems
used in smart homes is presented in [44].
H. Smart waste management
An intelligent waste collection system based on location
data has been proposed in [45] using optimization and AI
intelligence algorithms. [46] presents an IoT-based garbage
alert system where the concerned authorities are informed
about the garbage in a specific locality. The authors in [47]
and [48] have proposed an intelligent system for collecting
the garbage by estimating the optimum route of waste
collection using ant colony optimization and evolutionary
algorithms respectively. Recycling of garbage using AI and
ML is tested in [49] and a holistic solution to recycle the
waste is presented in [50] whereas the optimal way of waste
collection using AI is discussed in [51][52]. The role of
technology in waste management is reviewed in [53] and the
authors suggest AI as a prominent technology for the
application.
I. Smart grid
Effective utilization of electricity is essential in the
current situation as the world is facing plenty of problems
with respect to the environment because of population
growth. The smart energy management system can solve the
problem of the overutilization of electricity. The authors in
[54] have proposed an efficient model to forecast the
electricity load ahead of the day which can reduce the
wastage of electricity. The proposed model uses deep
learning (ANN) technology. Along with the overutilization,
electricity theft is one of the biggest problems faced by the
electricity corporations and it can harm the power grids as
well thereby reducing the profit and quality of power supply.
This issue is addressed in [55] and the authors have proposed
a novel hybrid method to detect electricity theft in grids using
Random Forest (RF) and deep learning techniques.
The analysis of short and long-term load prediction for
power grids using ML techniques is been carried out and
presented in [56]. A comprehensive review of recent research
solutions available to tackle the energy resources and power
grids using various technologies is conducted and presented
in the article [57]. The study highlighted state-of-art

technologies including machine learning. The proposed
solutions, challenges, and trends in smart power grid
implementation are elaborated in the study. Whereas the
article [58] presents a deep survey on the application of AI to
assess the grid stability and the article [59] surveyed on the
potential use of AI to implement Smart Grid.
J. Smart agriculture
Agriculture is the backbone for most developing
countries, with the growing population the demand for
agricultural products is exponentially growing. Replacing the
conventional methods with smart automated solutions [60] is
the need of the hour. Meteorological predictions [61],
decision support for precision farming, and digital solutions
through automation are the main areas presently addressed
through AI. Recent advances of AI in image processing have
led to solutions to identify the diseases in crops [62] at
various levels, predict the maturity of the crops [63], and also
in driving out pests, rodents, and insects through automated
repellent systems [64]. The authors in [65] and [66] have
used ML algorithms to predict the amount of water required
for cultivation and the probable amount of rainfall
respectively.
K. Transportation
Transportation is an indispensable component of society
and plays a pivotal role in the development of a country. With
the population growth and limited spatial infrastructure,
transportation suffers plenty of problems, and congestion is
the major issue. Advancement in technology is supporting
the concerned authorities to handle the issues by developing
smart applications. The Intelligent Transport Management
System (TMS) [67] has used ICT and AI techniques to
facilitate a safe, sustainable, and reliable [68] mode of travel
in the city. The TMS constitutes various components such
sensor deployment for data collection [69], Passenger
Information System (PIS) [70], traffic signal control system
[71], public transport integration [72], , etc.
The authors in [73] [74] have proposed an intelligent
transportation system using AI for transportation operations
like safe travel, traffic control, flow prediction, and crime risk,
etc. in smart cities. Various ML models are compared for
travel time prediction which has a key role in PIS. The authors
in [75] have presented a comparative analysis of different ML
algorithms to estimate adaptive traffic signal configuration to
manage traffic at a signalized intersection. The review articles
[76] and [77] quoted that the combination of AI algorithms is
best suitable for ITS implementation whereas the authors in
[78] have presented a detailed survey on smart mobility. The
new perspectives of ITS and ICT in smart cities are presented
in [79] and the various dimensions of smart mobility and AI
are discussed in [80] along with the future scope.
III. DISCUSSION
Cities today are facing issues such as degradation of
environment, scarcity of resources, smooth governance, etc.
The advancements in ICT, sensor networks, and computing
have prepared the society to ingest intelligent solutions to
solve the current issues of a modern city. The penetration of
digitization, social media, and availability of several data
sources through IoT and ICT have paved the way to innovate
new AI-based solutions. From naive to deep models, several
AI-based models are being explored in the implementation of
intelligent components of a smart city. Existing works that
have exploited artificial intelligence in implementing smart
city components are discussed in the previous section. A total
of 81 latest articles were shortlisted out of 200 articles
including reviews, empirical analysis, and theoretical
frameworks from reputed publishers and conference
proceedings. Out of the selected articles, 40 were surveyed to
explore the possible smart city issues addressed and AI
models used for the implementation of the solutions. The
summary of the survey is presented in table 1.
From the review, it is observed that research on possible
AI-based applications has penetrated every component of the
smart city and indeed deep into society signifying AI is
indispensable for a sustainable and citizen-friendly society.
Few components such as energy management, water
management, manufacturing, agriculture, transportation,
infrastructure, and security have been extensively explored as
compared to the town planning, governance, and education
components. The review also highlights the location of the
proposed solution, which indicates AI-based applications for
a smart city has been adopted by various developing and
developed countries worldwide.

... Smart cities leverage cutting-edge information and communications technologies to address the complex challenges faced by modern cities Ahad et al. [9] and Atitallah et al. [10]. Technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), edge and cloud computing Atitallah et al. [10], big data Rathore et al. [11], artificial intelligence (AI) Ashwini et al. [12], geospatial technologies and high-speed wireless networks like 5 G have been identified as key enablers for implementing smart cities Ahad et al. [9]. These technologies are expected to provide avenues for automating city services, integrating diverse entities within cities and enhancing the overall quality of life for citizens. ...
... Our AIoT-CitySense framework is adapted from this generalised architecture and modified to meet the unique requirement for utilising mobile assets for roadside infrastructure maintenance.

The transformation of cities into smarter and more efficient environments relies on proactive and timely detection and maintenance of city-wide infrastructure, including roadside infrastructure such as road signs and the cleaning of illegally dumped rubbish. Currently, these maintenance tasks rely predominantly on citizen reports or on-site checks by council staff. However, this approach has been shown to be time-consuming and highly costly, resulting in significant delays that negatively impact communities. This paper presents AIoT-CitySense, an AI and IoT-driven city-scale sensing framework, developed and piloted in collaboration with a local government in Australia. AIoT-CitySense has been designed to address the unique requirements of roadside infrastructure maintenance within the local government municipality. A tailored solution of AIoT-CitySense has been deployed on existing waste service trucks that cover a road network of approximately 100 kms in the municipality. Our analysis shows that proactive detection for roadside infrastructure maintenance using our solution reached an impressive 85%, surpassing the timeframes associated with manual reporting processes. AIoT-CitySense can potentially transform various domains, such as efficient detection of potholes and precise line marking for pedestrians. This paper exemplifies the power of leveraging city-wide data using AI and IoT technologies to drive tangible changes and improve the quality of city life.
... Smart applications in transportation aim to improve mobility, safety, and efficiency. Examples include intelligent transportation systems (ITS), autonomous vehicles, and ridesharing platforms [15,16,18,41,54,56,57]. ITS uses IoT devices and sensors to monitor traffic and manage traffic flow, reducing congestion and improving safety. ...
... Smart applications in education aim to improve learning outcomes, increase access to education, and enhance the student experience. Examples include personalized learning platforms and learning analytics [22,26,56]. Personalized learning platforms use AI and machine learning algorithms to tailor learning materials to individual students, improving their engagement and understanding. ...

Smart cities are rapidly evolving concept-transforming urban developments in the 21st century. Smart cities use advanced technologies and data analytics to improve the quality of life for their citizens, increase the efficiency of infrastructure and services, and promote sustainable economic growth. Smart cities integrate multiple domains, including transportation, energy, health, education, and governance, to create an interconnected and intelligent urban environment. Our research study methodology was a structured literature review using Web of Science and Google Scholar and ten smart city research questions. The research questions included smart city definitions, advantages, disadvantages, implementation challenges, funding, types of applications, quantitative techniques for analysis, and prioritization metrics. In addition, our study analyzes the implementation of smart city solutions in international contexts and proposes strategies to overcome implementation challenges. The integration of technology and data-driven solutions in smart cities has the potential to revolutionize urban living by providing citizens with personalized and accessible services. However, the implementation also presents challenges, including data privacy concerns, unequal access to technology, and the need for collaboration across private, public, and government sectors.

Public transit service is a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative for commuting, and promoting its usage is the need of the day. An understanding of the variability of travel time can aid service operators to improve the reliability and ridership of public transport. Gaining insights into the variability of travel time is a data-intensive task, and most of the existing studies utilize multiple traffic-related datasets. However, most cities lack the infrastructure to collect multiple data sets, hence in the current study, the location data of public transit buses were used for the analysis. The study was conducted in Tumakuru city, India at two spatial levels, namely route and segment, and further at temporal levels such as the day-of-the-week and departure time window. Wilcoxon signed-rank test was applied to identify similar spatial-temporal aggregations, and a few aggregations demonstrated similarity. Consistent with the existing literature, six statistical distributions were selected to fit the data through the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. The results emphasized that the Logistic distribution is the best fit at all spatial-temporal aggregation levels, and the lognormal and GEV distributions offered better fit for a few aggregation levels. Logistic distribution is recommended for operations planners and researchers to conduct reliability analysis and travel time forecasting in the future.

This study explores the adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the public sector, particularly how AI adoption affects employment and the future of work. The questions are what the correlation between AI and the future of work is and how the Indonesian government has developed strategies to adopt AI in the public sector. We sought data from various sources and found Indonesia’s National Strategy on AI, published by the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN), to be the most relevant. We reviewed and discussed the paper by cross-referencing with the emerging studies on AI in the global context. We found a strong link between AI adoption and changing employment structure, which requires skills upgrades and human resource deployment restructure. Looking into the sectors more closely, we argue that AI adoption will dramatically change the nature of work and employment structure in healthcare and bureaucracy but will only moderately affect education, food security, mobility, and smart cities.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the disruptive technologies that is shaping the future. It has growing applications for data-driven decisions in major smart city solutions, including transportation, education, healthcare, public governance, and power systems. At the same time, it is gaining popularity in protecting critical cyber infrastructure from cyber threats, attacks, damages, or unauthorized access. However, one of the significant issues of those traditional AI technologies (e.g., deep learning) is that the rapid progress in complexity and sophistication propelled and turned out to be uninterpretable black boxes. On many occasions, it is very challenging to understand the decision and bias to control and trust systems’ unexpected or seemingly unpredictable outputs. It is acknowledged that the loss of control over interpretability of decision-making becomes a critical issue for many data-driven automated applications. But how may it affect the system’s security and trustworthiness? This chapter conducts a comprehensive study of machine learning applications in cybersecurity to indicate the need for explainability to address this question. While doing that, this chapter first discusses the black-box problems of AI technologies for Cybersecurity applications in smart city-based solutions. Later, considering the new technological paradigm, Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI), this chapter discusses the transition from black-box to white-box. This chapter also discusses the transition requirements concerning the interpretability, transparency, understandability, and Explainability of AI-based technologies in applying different autonomous systems in smart cities. Finally, it has presented some commercial XAI platforms that offer explainability over traditional AI technologies before presenting future challenges and opportunities.KeywordsExplainable AIMachine learningDeep learningCyber securityPrivacyTransparency

Security of lives and properties is highly important for enhanced quality living. Smart home automation and its application have received much progress towards convenience, comfort, safety, and home security. With the advances in technology and the Internet of Things (IoT), the home environment has witnessed an improved remote control of appliances, monitoring, and home security over the internet. Several home automation systems have been developed to monitor movements in the home and report to the user. Existing home automation systems detect motion and have surveillance for home security. However, the logical aspect of averting unnecessary or fake notifications is still a major area of challenge. Intelligent response and monitoring make smart home automation efficient. This work presents an intelligent home automation system for controlling home appliances, monitoring environmental factors, and detecting movement in the home and its surroundings. A deep learning model is proposed for motion recognition and classification based on the detected movement patterns. Using a deep learning model, an algorithm is developed to enhance the smart home automation system for intruder detection and forestall the occurrence of false alarms. A human detected by the surveillance camera is classified as an intruder or home occupant based on his walking pattern. The proposed method’s prototype was implemented using an ESP32 camera for surveillance, a PIR motion sensor, an ESP8266 development board, a 5 V four-channel relay module, and a DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor. The environmental conditions measured were evaluated using a mathematical model for the response time to effectively show the accuracy of the DHT sensor for weather monitoring and future prediction. An experimental analysis of human motion patterns was performed using the CNN model to evaluate the classification for the detection of humans. The CNN classification model gave an accuracy of 99.8%.

Congested roads are a global problem, and increased usage of private vehicles is one of the main reasons for congestion. Public transit modes of travel are a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative for private vehicle usage, but attracting commuters towards public transit mode is a mammoth task. Commuters expect the public transit service to be reliable, and to provide a reliable service it is necessary to fine-tune the transit operations and provide well-timed necessary information to commuters. In this context, the public transit travel time is predicted in Tumakuru, a tier-2 city of Karnataka, India. As this is one of the initial studies in the city, the performance comparison of eight Machines Learning models including four linear namely, Linear Regression, Ridge Regression, Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator Regression, and Support Vector Regression; and four non-linear models namely, k-Nearest Neighbors, Regression Trees, Random Forest Regression, and Gradient Boosting Regression Trees is conducted to identify a suitable model for travel time predictions. The data logs of one month (November 2020) of the Tumakuru city service, provided by Tumakuru Smart City Limited are used for the study. The time-of-the-day (trip start time), day-of-the-week, and direction of travel are used for the prediction. Travel time for both upstream and downstream are predicted, and the results are evaluated based on the performance metrics. The results suggest that the performance of non-linear models is superior to linear models for predicting travel times, and Random Forest Regression was found to be a better model as compared to other models.

The goal of this study is to investigate the direct and indirect relationships that exist between artificial intelligence (AI), social innovation (SI), and smart decision-making (SDM). This study used a survey design and collected cross-sectional data from South Korea and Pakistan using survey questionnaires. Four hundred sixty respondents from the public and private sectors were obtained and empirically analyzed using SPSS multiple regression. The study discovered a strong and positive mediating effect of SI between the relationship of AI and SDM, as predicted. Previous researchers have investigated some of the factors that influence the decision-making process. This study adds to the social science literature by examining the impact of a mediating factor on decision-making. The findings of this study will contribute to the local government in building smart cities such that the factor of social innovations should be involved in the decision-making process because smart decision-making would share such collected data with entrepreneurs, businesses, and industries and would benefit society and all relevant stakeholders, including such social innovators.

Using UAV and multispectral images has contributed to identifying field variability and improving crop management through different data modeling methods. However, knowledge on application of these tools to manage peanut maturity variability is still lacking. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare and validate linear and multiple linear regression with models using artificial neural networks (ANN) for estimating peanut maturity under irrigated and rainfed conditions. The models were trained (80% dataset) and tested (20% dataset) using results from the 2018 and 2019 growing seasons from irrigated and rainfed fields. In each field, plant reflectance was collected weekly from 90 days after planting using a UAV-mounted multispectral camera. Images were used to develop vegetation indices (VIs). Peanut pods were collected on the same dates as the UAV flights for maturity assessment using the peanut maturity index (PMI). The precision and accuracy of the linear models to estimate PMI using VIs were, in general, greater in irrigated fields with R2 > 0.40 than in rainfed areas, which had a maximum R2 value of 0.21. Multiple linear regressions combining adjusted growing degree days (aGDD) and VIs resulted in decreased RMSE for both irrigated and rainfed conditions and increased R2 in irrigated areas. However, these models did not perform successfully in the test process. On the other hand, ANN models that included VIs and aGDD showed accuracy of R2 = 0.91 in irrigated areas, regardless of using Multilayer Perceptron (MLP; RMSE = 0.062) or Radial Basis Function (RBF; RMSE = 0.065), as well as low tendency (1:1 line). These results indicated that, regardless of the ANN architecture used to predict complex and non-linear variables, peanut maturity can be estimated accurately through models with multiple inputs using VIs and aGDD. Although the accuracy of the MLP or RBF models for irrigated and rainfed areas separately was high, the overall ANN models using both irrigated and rainfed areas can be used to predict peanut maturity with the same precision.

Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS) are of great importance today and have attracted a great deal of interest from both, academic researchers, and industrial engineers. These systems are considered as the intersection point between the smart grid and the smart home. Indeed, they can communicate with the user, home appliances, on-site generation sources, storage devices, and the grid operator to make dynamic decisions enabling intelligent and efficient energy management. This work aims to design and implement a smart HEMS that ensures renewable energy integration and energy efficiency improvement in residential buildings. The system designed in this work has been implemented as part of a pilot project in a testbed house of the Smart Campus — Green & Smart Building Park, Benguerir, Morocco. The proposed HEMS framework is based on two control strategies that work jointly: the first concerns the scheduling and control of power dispatch among generation, consumption, and storage agents (Supply-Side Management), while the second concerns the scheduling and control of flexible appliances for optimal load profile modulation (Demand-Side Management). The management of energy flows is based on grid electricity price, forecasting data (PV generation and weather conditions) and user preferences. The two designed control strategies are combined into an AI-based multi-objective optimization algorithm that minimizes costs and maximizes comfort level simultaneously. The obtained results validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm and indicate that it would significantly increase the penetration of PV energy for self-consumption and reduce electricity costs, while ensuring a proper compromise between monetary spending and comfort level. The large-scale implementation of such systems would help decarbonize residential energy sector through higher renewable energy integration and energy efficiency improvement in buildings.
