The 19th International Conference on Soft Computing Models in Industrial and Environmental Applications SOCO 2024 (eBook)

This volume of Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing contains accepted papers presented at the SOCO 2024 conference held in the beautiful and historic city of Salamanca (Spain) in October 2024.

Soft computing represents a collection or set of computational techniques in machine learning, computer science, and some engineering disciplines that investigate, simulate, and analyze very complex issues and phenomena.

After a thorough peer-review process, the 18th SOCO 2023 International Program Committee selected 62 papers for publication in these conference proceedings, representing an acceptance rate of 50%. In this relevant edition, a particular emphasis was put on organizing special sessions. Four special sessions were organized related to relevant topics such as Machine Learning and Computer Vision in Industry 4.0, Intelligent Models and Frameworks for Smart Agriculture and Green Economy, Computational Intelligence Applied to Modelling and Control of Engineering Systems, and Applied Machine Learning (2nd Edition).

The selection of papers was extremely rigorous to maintain the high quality of the conference. We want to thank the members of the Program Committees for their hard work during the reviewing process. This is a crucial process for creating a high-standard conference; the SOCO conference would not exist without their help.
