As one of the series of academic events celebrating the 65th anniversary of the establishment of the Control Engineering discipline at the South China University of Technology, The 10th IEEE Symposium on Complex Systems and Cybernetics & The 5th IEEE Symposium on Artificial Intelligence was successfully held on the afternoon of December 21st. The forum was jointly organized by the IEEE CSS Guangzhou Chapter, IEEE SMC Guangzhou Chapter, the School of Computer Science and Engineering, and the School of Automation Science and Engineering at the South China University of Technology, in collaboration with the TCCT Committee on Stochastic Systems and Control. The School of Automation Science and Engineering hosted the event, with the School of Automation at the Guangdong University of Petrochemical Technology and the Shanghai Qimei Information Technology Center as co-organizers.

This forum invited renowned experts and scholars from domestic and international institutions, including Professor C. L. Philip Chen, an IEEE Fellow from South China University of Technology, Professor Fuchun Sun, an IEEE Fellow from Tsinghua University, Professor Derong Liu, an IEEE Fellow from Southern University of Science and Technology, Professor Chenggui Yuan from Swansea University (UK), Professor Aiguo Wu from Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen), and Professor Shilu Dai from South China University of Technology. They shared their latest discoveries, research findings, and relevant insights. The opening ceremony was presided over by Professor Feiqi Deng from South China University of Technology.
