The Tactile Internet (TI) is a logical transition of the Internet, which has progressed from a static, text-based Internet to a multimedia mobile Internet and finally to a Consumer Internet of Things (IoT). The major requirement of any TI applications is low latency, fast transit intervals, high availability, and a high level of security. For instance, latency requirement in Human to Machine (H2M) interactions may vary from < 10 ms up to tens of milliseconds and round-trip latency of 1 ms. This necessitates tactile applications close to end users to minimize delays. Edge Computing (EC) is a resource-rich decentralized platform that offers cloud computing functionalities at cellular base stations near users, saving energy and time on backhaul transmission to cloud servers. In a typical network security architecture of TI, the network administrator establishes network security policies, which segregate network traffic. However, deploying EC at the Internet edge places a strain on network management policies, making them subject to attacks such as Denial-of-Service (DoS), which can harm EC and produce unnecessary network traffic. This type of attack is restricted to EC nodes and has little effect on the backhaul network (such as cloud computing), which is more secure. Therefore, with the growing number of attack vectors, it is essential to develop security solutions for EC to enable computing-based TI applications secure and give application developers more alternatives. The Convergence of Cloud, EC, AI, and blockchain can potentially tackle major shortcomings of TI-driven Consumer IoT, its adoption is still in its infancy, suffering from various issues, such as lack of consensus towards any reference models or best practices.
触觉互联网(TI)是互联网的逻辑过渡,它从静态、基于文本的互联网发展到多媒体移动互联网,最后发展到消费物联网(IoT)。任何 TI 应用的主要要求都是低延迟、快速传输间隔、高可用性和高安全性。例如,人机(H2M)交互的延迟要求可能从 10 毫秒到几十毫秒不等,往返延迟可达 1 毫秒。这就要求触觉应用靠近终端用户,以尽量减少延迟。边缘计算(EC)是一种资源丰富的分散式平台,可在用户附近的蜂窝基站提供云计算功能,从而节省向云服务器回程传输的能源和时间。在典型的 TI 网络安全架构中,网络管理员建立网络安全策略,隔离网络流量。然而,在互联网边缘部署 EC 会给网络管理策略带来压力,使其受到拒绝服务(DoS)等攻击,从而损害 EC 并产生不必要的网络流量。这类攻击仅限于 EC 节点,对更安全的回程网络(如云计算)影响不大。因此,随着攻击载体的日益增多,必须为 EC 开发安全解决方案,以确保基于计算的 TI 应用安全,并为应用开发人员提供更多选择。云、EC、人工智能和区块链的融合有可能解决 TI 驱动的消费类物联网的主要缺点,但其应用仍处于起步阶段,存在各种问题,例如缺乏对任何参考模型或最佳实践的共识。

Intelligent data processing harnesses the power of learning, analytics, and automated data insight extraction to guide managers through decision making, which emerged as imperative tools in computer science and information processing. However, the huge amount and complexity of the data acquired pose great challenges for processing and analysis. A graph is made up of nodes - real-life entities, like health care providers (HCPs), Integrated Delivery Networks (IDNs), and products - that can be connected to signify relationships. This model can represent real-world relationships much more clearly than relational databases that have rigid schemas. Leading consumer applications, like LinkedIn and Facebook, utilize graphs to easily identify and visualize complex relationships in a simple interface. This technology is an elegant, powerful way to solve complex data problems.

Consumer electronics are electronic equipment intended for everyday use, and they constitute a part of the wider electronics industry including devices and services used for entertainment, communications and recreation. In practice, consumer electronics use digital technologies to enhance performance and well-being in realworld applications, such as traffic surveillance elements, online retailing, automatic driving systems, fashion and apparel industry, et al., where the information in these applications usually comes through multimedia data. For example, the videos in traffic surveillance contain both acoustic and visual signals; the online product in online retailing app or website include both image, video, text and even acoustic information; the sensory perceptions typically used in automatic driving system may need extensive multi-media data from multichannel inputs in visual, auditory and motor pathways. Thereby, how to characterize the property of multimedia data so that it can be managed to enable different learning tasks of various applications in consumer electronics, is of great importance. This requires researchers to develop robust models to classify, retrieve and understand multi-media information in these real-world applications.

Consumer electronics are electronic equipment intended for everyday use, and they constitute a part of the wider electronics industry including devices and services used for entertainment, communications and recreation. In practice, consumer electronics use digital technologies to enhance performance in real-world applications, such as AI-generated content, chatbot, online retailing, automatic driving systems, fashion and apparel industry, etc., where the information in these applications usually generate a significant amount of high-quality data for creation of digital content, Semantic Comprehension or data generation and augmentation, etc. Recently, Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) has been gaining significant attention from society. For example, ChatGPT is a language model developed by OpenAI for building chatbot, which can efficiently understand and respond to human language in a logical and meaningful way. In addition, DALL-E-2 is another state-of-the-art GAI model, which is capable of creating unique and high-quality images from textual descriptions in a few minutes. In general, GAI techniques, as opposed to being created by human authors, is to automate the creation of large amounts of content such as images, music, and natural language, etc. Therefore, how to develop robust models for generative AI in this field of consumer electronics is of great importance.
消费电子产品是供日常使用的电子设备,是更广泛的电子产业的一部分,包括用于娱乐、通信和休闲的设备和服务。在实践中,消费电子产品利用数字技术来增强现实世界应用中的性能,如人工智能生成的内容、聊天机器人、在线零售、自动驾驶系统、时尚和服装行业等,这些应用中的信息通常会产生大量高质量数据,用于创建数字内容、语义理解或数据生成和增强等。最近,生成式人工智能(GAI)受到了社会的广泛关注。例如,ChatGPT 是 OpenAI 为构建聊天机器人而开发的一种语言模型,它可以高效地理解人类语言,并对其做出有逻辑、有意义的回应。此外,DALL-E-2 是另一种最先进的 GAI 模型,它能够在几分钟内根据文本描述创建独特而高质量的图像。一般来说,GAI 技术与由人类作者创建的技术不同,它可以自动创建大量内容,如图像、音乐和自然语言等。因此,如何在消费电子产品这一领域为生成式人工智能开发稳健的模型就显得尤为重要。

This is an era of the prevalence of multimedia, an era of a community of shared future in cyberspace. In the last few years, the number of available multimedia and multimodal applications increased at a fastest step also thanks to the availability of several multimedia editing tools. This has opened the way to more powerful and human-friendly devices and applications that use multimedia data. As Internet technology continues to evolve, the sharing of multimedia information between people has become more frequent, but it has also exacerbated privacy risks. Further, Internet of Multimedia Things (IoMT), which are hidden inside everyday multimedia objects that surround us and help us in many smart applications, are becoming the dominant technologies in tele-healthcare, homes, mobile phones, intelligent devices and instruments, and consumer multimedia electronic. To make modern life easier, consumer electronic equipment is widely used to transmit multimedia information in many fields, such as academia, social media, healthcare, business, and industry. However, secure multimedia and multimodal data transmission are new challenges for many professionals and researchers. Therefore, it is of great research significance and application value to design and propose a secure system for multimedia data for consumer’s electronic applications. The guest editorial team believes that the articles included in this special section will be convenient security and privacy solutions of multimedia and multimodal data for consumer’s electronic applications.
