In computer science and engineering research, soft computing is the use of inexact solutions to computationally hard tasks such as the solution of NP-complete problems, for which there is no known algorithm that can compute an exact solution in polynomial time. Soft computing differs from conventional computing in that, unlike hard computing, it is tolerant of imprecision, uncertainty, partial truth, and approximation. In effect, the role model for soft computing is the human mind. The three major components of soft computing are fuzzy logic, neural network, and probabilistic reasoning, which complement each other. Fuzzy logic is used for error analysis and neural network for knowledge learning. Probabilistic reasoning is used to solve uncertainties and chestnut problems. It is concluded that fuzzy logic can simulate the function of human processing language, and neural network and probability inference model imitate human process data, knowledge learning and reasoning process, so it can deal with multivariable and nonlinear system problem with soft computing theory. The integration of soft computing and multimedia systems is the trend especially when the deep learning arises.

The aim of this special issue is to provide a premier international platform for wide range of professions including scholars, researchers, academicians and industry researchers to discuss and present the different types of cutting-edge soft computing techniques toward multimedia data analyzing systems. The special issue is open to submit novel and high quality research contributions. We target the researchers from both the industry and academia and anticipate that this special issue will open new entrance for further research and technology improvements in this important area.
