MERIT Scientific Publications: Open Access Knowledge

MERIT Scientific Publications: Open Access Knowledge in AI, Cybersecurity & IoT – Explore the Work of Our Experts

The MERIT project has now a dedicated Scientific Publications page gathering work from MERIT members in the project’s target domains of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Cybersecurity and the Internet of Things (IoT). This collection highlights research led by MERIT experts (project partners) during the first three years of the project and makes it easy for you to explore open access outputs supporting Europe’s digital transformation.

What you’ll find

The MERIT Scientific Publications page offers a structured overview of Journal articles, conference papers and other scientific outputs, some of which are authored by MERIT members (that includes previous and current members of MERIT). The content is organized to help you quickly identify relevant work across:

Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Cybersecurity
Internet of Things (IoT)

Whenever possible, publications are available in open access, meaning you can directly read, download and reuse the results in your own research, teaching or professional practice.

AI: Data, Health, Robotics and Responsible Innovation

In the AI section, you will find research covering:

Data-driven methods and machine learning applications
AI for health, medicine and digital pathology
Robotics, autonomous systems and computer vision
Metrics, evaluation and responsible AI practices

These works showcase how MERIT experts are advancing trustworthy and explainable AI across different sectors while contributing tools, datasets and methods to the wider community.

Cybersecurity: Trust, Protection and Skills

The Cybersecurity section focuses on how MERIT partners are addressing security challenges in an increasingly connected world, including:

Digital identity and trust services
Malware, intrusion and threat detection
Protection of critical systems and infrastructures
Cybersecurity education, skills development and workforce readiness

Through these publications, MERIT supports secure digital ecosystems and contributes to the development of cyber-aware professionals across Europe.

IoT: From Smart Systems to Edge and Beyond

The IoT section brings together work on intelligent, interconnected systems, such as:

IoT architectures and edge/5G-enabled applications
Autonomous and cyber-physical systems
Smart environments, buildings and cities
Sensing, monitoring and data-driven services in industry and society

This research illustrates how MERIT partners combine IoT, AI and advanced communications to enable more efficient, sustainable and resilient solutions.

Open Access as a Core MERIT Value

Across all three domains, the MERIT Scientific Publications page reflects the project’s commitment to:

Open science and knowledge sharing
High-quality, reviewed research
Practical impact for education, industry and policy

By making publications as openly accessible as possible, MERIT supports transparent, reusable and collaborative digital innovation.
