Guest Editorial Special Issue on the 2022 International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering

We are pleased to present this Special Issue of IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering (TASE), featuring 12 extended articles selected from the technical program of the 2022 IEEE International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE 2022). CASE 2022 was primarily held in Mexico City from August 20 to 24, 2022, with a concurrent satellite site in Chengdu, China. As an offspring of TASE, CASE is the flagship conference of the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society, providing a premier international forum for automation researchers and practitioners to present and discuss their work. CASE 2022 marks the first time that the conference was held in Latin America, a significant milestone for both local and international researchers, academics, and practitioners. CASE 2022 is also the first time to have a satellite site besides the main event and venue in the COVID-19 pandemic era. The theme of CASE 2022 is Artificial Intelligence (AI) Automation.
