Emerging trends and future research opportunities in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning

The Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning (DL), each built on a higher level of the proved technology driving innovation and efficiency. There are a few other futuristic trends clearly on the horizon too, such as the incorporation of AI with Internet of Things (IoT) devices to create environments that are smarter and more responsive. Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is also becoming more important, as is the need for transparency and accountability in AI decision-making. Federated learning has also emerged as an interesting approach towards privacy-preserving model training in ML by training de-centralized models across multiple devices without sharing raw data. Transformer model such as GPT-4 and BERT are transformer models that have revolutionized the field of natural language processing (NLP) in DL, which are capable of more nuanced understanding and generation of human language. Their usage has increased dramatically, and they are used in everything from healthcare diagnostics to automated content creation. Also, the implication of blockchain-enabled AI to develop hack-proof AI applications, largely in finance and supply chain management is increasingly becoming popular. More research arises in the future, that will be around building hybrid AI models that contains both symbolic reasoning and neural networks, where we expect future research, will be focused on building much more stronger and flexible AI systems. Certainly, further study of the ethical issues around AI deployment - especially what is learned about bias and fairness - will remain an important area of investigation.

6.1 Introduction

Over the last few years, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning (DL) have quickly transformed from novelties to technologies used in innovations in a broad range of fields and daily life (Michalski et aal., 2013; Ongsulee, 2017; Jakhar, & Kaur, 2020; Paramesha et al., 2024a). In healthcare, finance, transportation, entertainment, and more, these advancements have sparked revolutions, enabling previously unimagined efficiencies and opportunities (Das et al., 2015; Panch et al., 2018; Rane et al., 2024a). The adaptation of AI, ML, DL to regular applications has made it evident that there is a long way to go and explore (Michalski, et al., 2014; Campesato, 2020). Furthermore, researchers are also paying more attention on the explanation and interpretability of AI models, the data and algorithmic bias that still exists in these systems and improvement in making these systems more robust and secure (Helm et al., 2020; Paramesha et al., 2024b). Further, the fusion of AI with other emerging technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and blockchain, introduces new vistas as well as challenges. With the fast pace of developments in AI, ML, and DL, recognizing and learning the new trends is vital to help direct the future of research in these fields and realize the full benefits of AI, ML, and DL as well as reduce any possible threats. This research presents an in-depth analysis and benchmark of the current status and trends of AI, ML, and DL.

Contribution of the research work:

• Presents a comprehensive review of the recent developments and the ongoing research in AI, ML, and DL, discusses the various trends and limitation of the existing research as well.
• Applies advanced bibliometric methods to the keyword co-occurrence networks, and uses clustering methods to identify what research groups can be extracted currently, for understanding the research landscape in an organized manner and its evolution.

6.2 Methodology

The approach used to perform investigation is a systematic bibliographic study on AI, ML, and DL using the tools and techniques of bibliometric analysis to ascertain emerging trends and future lines of research. The first step was to search the most applicable databases of academic research such as Scopus, Web of Science, and IEEE Xplore for literature published over the previous ten years. We used keywords, like "artificial intelligence," "machine learning," "deep learning," "emerging trends," and "future research" in the research to ensure adequate selection. A data extracted from the literature was then analysed keywords co-occurrence analysis to identify the frequently mentioned keywords and its relations with others. Those keyword networks can be visualized, and in this way, this analysis plays a role in mapping the intellectual structure of the field with a graphical output. VOSviewer software was utilized to accomplish co-occurrence analysis, which revealed the important themes with their interconnections. Moreover, cluster analysis was performed on identified keywords related to AI, ML, and DL to classify them into thematic groups, corresponding individual subfields or main topics in AI, ML, and DL. This allowed us to cluster the publications and find research-clusters and trending-topics in research. First, the results of the keyword co-occurrence and the cluster analyses were integrated, which were used to identify the current trends in these research topics and provide indications for future studies in this fast-developing areas.

The interrelations between these groups illustrate the diversity and fluidity of the research activities in AI, ML, and DL.

 

Emerging trends in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning technologies

Natural language processing (NLP) is one of the major trends we continue to see in AI (Baidoo-Anu, & Ansah, 2023; Currie, 2023; Paramesha et al., 2024c). The NLP technologies have evolved significantly with models like Open AI's GPT-4 (Fitria, 2023; Rane et al., 2024b). For example, it learns a language model based on Internet text and have since performed remarkably well both in NLP applications, such as customer service chatbots, and more specialized content generation tools. The push for more context-aware AI systems and conversational experiences isn't going to stop and we find it running a bit faster thanks to better research and large language models being integrated into all sorts of platforms. A related trend is the increase in social motivators for 'Ethical AI'. With greater prevalence of AI systems, issues around bias, transparency and accountability in AI have taken center stage (Leavy et al., 2020; Schwartz et al., 2022; Ferrara, 2023; Rane et al., 2024c). This growing list of frameworks and guidelines are a focus to commercial businesses working in AI, but also, are increasingly needing to be considered as we see more broadly how power and authority are being exercised through technology and data. This involves enforcing fairness in AI algorithms, enhancing explainability and making AI systems transparent and accountable. The ethical AI movement is an important development for establishing public trust in AI and ensuring that AI technologies serve everyone on a society-wide basis (Schwartz et al., 2022; Ferrara, 2023). Table 6.1 shows the emerging trends in AI, ML, and DL.

A notable trend in ML, automated ML (AutoML) on the rise (Singh, & Joshi, 2022). The purpose of AutoML is to tell it in very easy terms to be used by naturals who don't know ML, that applies to the entire process of applying machine study to real-world problems and makes it available for non-experts (Karmaker et al., 2021; Singh, & Joshi, 2022). This is not only due to the current push to make ML more accessible to other organizations for democratization reasons, but also because they should not need to be considered an ML expert to best utilize ML. AutoML tools take care of identifying the best models, hyperparameter tuning and deployment optimization of ML models hence minimizing the time and effort required to build effective ML solution DL - a subset of ML - is still rapidly evolving with new architectures and techniques breaking the limits of what is achievable. Transformers are one such, more efficient, neural network architecture that has shown unparalleled performance in NLP and in computer vision - a new architecture that wouldn't have been possible some years ago. Leveraging large-scale data and powerful hardware for training, these models can learn complex patterns providing state-of-the-art performance on tasks such as image recognition, language translation, and game playing. Also, increasingly lower-weight as well as edge-optimized DL models are of interest, that can be deployed on processors with lesser capabilities, which makes it possible to apply AI in realms such as the IoT, or mobile computing.

AI and ML as everyone knows are a boon but still rising even further is AI with other cutting-edge technologies such as quantum computing. Quantum computing is a promising new technology that may be able to solve complex problems faster and on a larger scale than classical computers, and its combination with AI might lead to major progress in areas such as cryptography, optimization, and drug development (Dunjko, & Briegel, 2017;

Khan, & Robles-Kelly, 2020; Umer, & Sharif, 2022; Paramesha et al., 2024d). How quantum algorithms can be injected into the ML models is being researched to solve previously uncleavable issues (Khan, & Robles-Kelly, 2020; Umer, & Sharif, 2022; Paramesha et al., 2024e). A new wave of applications taking advantage of AI is moving towards more customization. AI algorithms are customized and trained to learn from user behaviour and perform accordingly. In cases like personalized medicine, where the recommendations made by AI algorithms about the type of treatment plan that needs to be followed for a patient after an analysis of the data of the patient, or e-commerce, where recommendation to the user based on his/her behaviour to buy or not buy a particular product, these algorithms provide the results as a function of bins. AI technologies are enabling businesses to deliver personalized experiences at scale and to a degree of personalization hitherto unimaginable.

Another major trend is the role of AI in the development of autonomous systems (He et al., 2020; Rayhan, 2023). The race to develop more advanced and reliable autonomous vehicles, drones, and robotics is accelerated by AI and DL training. In short, these are technologies that allow machines to understand the world around them, make decisions based on the information available, and learn from their experiences to create safer and more efficient machines. The self-driving era of cars has made significant progress. AI and ML are changing the way industry like healthcare and patient care can be revolutionized using this. Medical images are being analysed, disease outbreaks are being predicted and treatment plans are tailored using AI algorithms. A most illustrious outlier in this line is the use of AI for drug discovery and development (Deng et al., 2022; Mak et al., 2023). ML algorithms can scan extremely large datasets to find leads for new drugs, predict the likely success of such compounds and further optimize the chemical structure of the drug, etc. These speeds up the development of new therapies and simultaneously lowers the costs making healthcare more affordable.

AI and IoT integration are a new trend (Alahi et al., 2023). When used together as AIoT, smart systems linked to the internet can gather and analyse information, driving even further actionable behaviour and decision making. This can be used in widespread sectors like smart homes, healthcare monitoring, industrial automation etc. One of the big trends in AI research these days is on improving AI model interpretability and explainability. The more complex an AI system gets, the more difficult it becomes to understand why that system takes a certain decision. To address it, researchers are coming up with ways to reveal details of the AI model that allows users to understand the logic behind the decisions made by the AI model. It matters even more in life and death cases such as healthcare and finances where AI systems need to be trusted.

 

Future research in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning technologies

Interpretability, explainability, responsibility, and understandability have been one of the central issues in ML and AI research (Arrieta, et al., 2020; Emmert‐Streib et al., 2020). The situation is becoming even more complex with the increased complexity of DL models in AI systems, and it can be unclear how they make decisions (Arrieta et al., 2020; Hassija et al., 2024). Methods for increasing the intelligibility, or transparency, of AI systems can be an area of focus for future work. It may involve developing new algorithms that generate human interpretable explanations for their predictions; this is one of the techniques to ensure trust in AI systems, especially in areas where the results are critical, such as health care, finance, or self-driven cars. Table 6.2 shows the future research in AI, ML, and DL.

Another one is Ethical AI which is a very important point of research in future (Schwartz et al., 2022; Ferrara, 2023). As AI systems proliferate, it is increasingly important that they be designed and implemented in ways that are fair, transparent, and not discriminatory. Further research into developing ethically-usable frameworks and guidelines for AI technologies are anticipated. These involve methods for bias detection and mitigation in AI systems; developing robust privacy-preserving techniques; and making sure AI systems are aligned with human values. The challenge is to fabricate AI not only potent but also reliable and congruent with the societal conventions, ethical norms.
