Representatives from IEEE Indonesia Chapter and Central IEEE,

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Assalamu'alaikum Wr. Wb.
May peace and health be upon us all.

First of all, let us express our utmost gratitude to God Almighty (SWT) for His blessings and grace so that even though in this coronavirus pandemic atmosphere, we can all still participate in the third iSriti international conference. On this occasion, let me express my sincere appreciation to the Keynote Speakers: Dr. Zoohan Gani from Victoria University, Sydney Australia, and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Ahmad Hoirul Basory from King Abdul Azis University, Rabig, Makkah, Saudi Arabia for their willingness to share their brilliant ideas and insights to be presented at this conference.

Dear ladies and gentlemen,
On this occasion, as the head of STMIK AKAKOM Yogyakarta, I am saddened to state that the third ISRITI conference had to be held online, considering that the coronavirus pandemic has not ended. Even though a pandemic currently hits us, the researchers' enthusiasm is apparent in the number of research articles submitted. We received up to 262 articles from 17 countries. Around 135 articles were accepted to be readily presented online in a conference forum with the theme: Artificial Intelligence for Social Interactions. As the organizers of iSriti, we are very proud and grateful for the researchers' participation who have been willing to submit their research results to be published in this conference forum. We would also like to thank IEEE and IRSI, who have trusted and supported this conference from the very beginning. We still hope to build networks and information exchange between academics, practitioners, researchers, and the government to identify and explore issues, opportunities, and solutions to face challenges in the current era of technological disruption.

Finally, on this occasion, I would like to express my utmost gratitude to:

The distinguished keynote speakers who have been willing to share their valuable knowledge in this conference;
The third ISRITI researchers who have presented and will present their research results;
Reviewers who have carefully reviewed the articles of the researchers;
Moderators who are more than willing to lead the plenary session;
IEEE for trusting us to hold this international conference;
IRSI, which has supported the third ISRITI activities until now;
The committee that has been working hard to prepare this international conference according to plan;
Last but not least, as the organizer, I would like to sincerely apologize for any shortcomings or inconveniences during this event.

Thank you very much for your kind attention, and Wassalamu'alaium Wr. Wb.

The Chairman of STMIK AKAKOM Yogyakarta

Welcome Speech from The General Chair of The 3rd ISRITI 2020

Dear colleagues and friends.

On behalf of the organizing committee, I am delighted to welcome all participants to the 3rd International Seminar on Research of Information Technology and Intelligent Systems (ISRITI 2020). This conference is the third international conference held by STMIK Akakom Yogyakarta, Indonesia and the first to be held by STMIK Akakom in virtual form on December 10th, 2020.

In this conference, the committee decided to choose the following theme: "Artificial Intelligence for Social Interactions". This highlight was chosen because various advances in the field of AI have recently raised concerns that AI will replace various things that are the human domain. For us, AI can be used to better understand social interactions and to build machines that work more collaboratively and effectively with humans. Therefore, by highlighting that theme in ISRITI 2020, we hope we can raise awareness towards AI for social interactions.

The aim of the conference is to provide an interactive international forum for sharing and exchanging information on the latest research in the area of information technology, computer sciences, informatics, and related fields. Nearly 135 academicians, researchers, practitioners, and presenters from 17 countries (Indonesia, Malaysia, India, USA, Brazil, Australia, South Korea, Hungary, Morocco, Vietnam, Iraq, China, Thailand, Turkey, Ireland, Romania, Russia, and Saudi Arabia) gathered in this event. In total, there are 262 active papers submitted to this conference. Each paper has been reviewed with tight criteria from our invited reviewers. Based on the review result, 133 papers have been accepted, which lead to an acceptance rate of 50.76%. This conference will not be successful without extensive effort from many parties. First, I would like to thank all keynote speakers for allocating their valuable time to share their knowledge with us. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to all participants who participate in this conference. Special acknowledgement should go to the Technical Program Committee Chairs, Members, and Reviewers for their thorough and timely reviewing of the papers. We would also like to thank our sponsors: IEEE Indonesia Section and Research and Society Service Institution at STMIK Akakom. Last but not least, recognition should also go to the Local Organizing Committee members who have put enormous effort and support for this conference. At last, we hope that you have an enjoyable and inspiring moment during our conference. Thank you for your participation in ISRITI 2020.

Yogyakarta, 10 December 2020 General Chair of the 3rd ISRITI 2020
