Abstract: Growing older is a phenomenon that is associated with increasingly complex health situations as a result of the coexistence of several chronic diseases. As a result, there is a downward tendency in both older people and their caretakers’ quality of life, which frequently results in frailty. There are numerous solutions available to treat the issue, which primarily affects older people. The basic and most popular imaging method for predicting cognitive impairment is magnetic resonance imaging. Furthermore, few of the earlier models had a definite level of accuracy when diagnosing the condition. Further, there is a critical need to put in …place a stronger, more reliable approach to precise prediction. When compared to other procedures, using magnetic resonance images to predict cognitive decline is the safest and most straightforward. The advanced concept for a better optimized strategy to predict cognitive impairment at an early stage is presented in this research. The hybrid krill herd and grey wolf optimization method is offered as a solution to address the challenges in locating the impacted area. In a short amount of time, a significant number of MRI images are analyzed, and the results show a more precise or higher rate of recognition. Show more

Abstract: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have gained significant attention in recent years due to their wide range of applications, such as environmental monitoring, smart agriculture, and structural health monitoring. With the increasing volume of data generated by WSNs, efficient data analytics techniques are crucial for improving the overall performance and reducing energy consumption. This paper presents a novel distributed data analytics approach for WSNs using fuzzy logic-based machine learning. The proposed method combines the advantages of fuzzy logic for handling uncertainty and imprecision with the adaptability of machine learning techniques. It enables sensor nodes to process and analyze data locally, reducing …the need for data transmission and consequently saving energy. Furthermore, this approach enhances data accuracy and fault tolerance by incorporating the fusion of heterogeneous sensor data. The proposed technique is evaluated on a series of real-world and synthetic datasets, demonstrating its effectiveness in improving the overall network performance, energy efficiency, and fault tolerance.

Abstract: The rapid expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) applications and the increasing complexity of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have created a critical need for efficient load balancing strategies. This paper proposes a dynamic load balancing approach for IoT-enabled WSNs using a fuzzy logic-based control mechanism. The proposed method aims to optimize energy consumption, reduce latency, and enhance network lifetime by intelligently distributing the workload among sensor nodes. The fuzzy logic controller takes into account various parameters, such as energy levels, communication distances, and node density, to make adaptive load balancing decisions. The control mechanism allocates tasks to the most suitable …nodes, ensuring efficient utilization of resources and preventing overloading of individual nodes. Simulations are conducted in diverse network scenarios to validate the performance of the proposed approach. Results demonstrate significant improvements in energy efficiency, latency reduction, and overall network lifetime compared to traditional load balancing techniques. The fuzzy logic-based control mechanism proves to be a promising solution for addressing the dynamic and resource-constrained nature of IoT-enabled WSNs, paving the way for more robust and resilient networks in various IoT applications.

Abstract: Containerized data centers (CDCs) have experienced rapid growth in recent years, owing to their modular and scalable nature. However, ensuring reliability and early fault detection in these complex systems is critical. This paper presents a novel Fuzzy Logic-based Fault Detection (FLFD) framework for CDCs using Digital Twins (DTs). The proposed approach employs DTs to create accurate virtual representations of the CDCs, which enable real-time monitoring and analysis of the physical systems. This paper focuses on three main aspects: (1) the development of a comprehensive DT model for CDCs, (2) the design and implementation of a FLFD algorithm, and (3) the …validation of the proposed approach through extensive simulations and real-world case studies. The FLFD algorithm leverages fuzzy logic principles to identify and localize faults in the system, thereby enhancing the overall fault detection accuracy and reducing false alarms. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework, with significant improvements in fault detection performance and system reliability. The FLFD approach offers a promising solution for proactive maintenance and management in containerized data centers, paving the way for more efficient and resilient operations. Show more

Abstract: In this study, we investigate the viability of applying fuzzy reinforcement learning (FRL) to Internet of Things-based robots for purposes of autonomous navigation and collision avoidance. The proposed approach utilises FRL, IoT, and a sensor network to give the robot the ability to learn from its environment and act in accordance with those policies. The authors used FRL to train a mobile robot with wheels to move around and avoid obstacles, and then they put the robot through its paces in a virtual world. Results showed that the FRL-based technique improved the robot’s navigation and collision avoidance performance compared to …traditional rule-based approaches. The results of this study indicate that FRL may be a viable technique for enabling autonomous navigation and obstacle avoidance in IoT-based robotics. Show more

Abstract: Industry experts are motivated to collect, collate, and analyse historical data in the legal sector in attempt to predict court case outcomes as the amount of historical data available in this field has increased over time. But using judicial data to predict and defend court judgements is no simple undertaking. Using Machine Learning (ML) models and traditional approaches for categorical feature encoding, previous research on predicting court outcomes using limited experimental datasets produced a number of unexpected predictions. The paper proposes an ensemble model combining Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), attention mechanism and eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGB) algorithm. This model is …primarily based on a self-attention network, which could simultaneously capture linguistic relationships over lengthy sequences like RNN (Recurrent Neural Network) and is nevertheless speedy to train like CNN. C-XGB can obtain accuracy that surpasses the state-of-art model on numerous classification/prediction tasks simultaneously as being twice as speedy to train. The proposed C-XGB model is designed to process the documents hierarchically and calculates the attention weights. Two convolutional layers are used to calculate the attention weights, one at the word level and another at the sentence level. And finally, at the last layer, the XGB algorithm predicts the input case file’s outcome. The experimental results shows that the proposed model outperforms the existing model with 4.67% improvement in accuracy value. Show more

Abstract: The term “educational data mining” refers to a field of study where information from academic environments is predicted using data mining, machine learning, and statistics. Education is the act of giving or receiving knowledge to or from someone who is formally studying and developing a natural talent. Over time, scholars have used data mining techniques to uncover hidden information in educational statistics and other external elements. This study suggests a unique method for analysing academic student performance that is based on data mining and machine learning. Here, the input is gathered as a dataset of student academic performance and is …processed for normalisation and noise reduction. Then, using the Boltzmann deep learning model coupled with linear kernel principal component analysis, this data’s characteristics were retrieved and chosen. Based on weights, information gain, and the Gini index, the characteristics are assessed and optimised. Following the selection of the pertinent data, conditional random field-based probabilistic clustering model is performed using RNN-based training, and the academic performance of the students is then examined using voting classifiers and sparse features. Experimental results are carried out for students academic performance dataset based on subjects in terms of training accuracy, validation accuracy, mean average precision, mean square error and correlation evaluation. Proposed technique attained accuracy of 96%, precision of 95%, Correlation Evaluation of 92% . Show more

Abstract: A plant disease that attacks the leaf causes significant yield and market value losses. A professional plant pathologist should be able to visually identify the disease by looking at the affected plant leaves, but this is unlikely to result in a more accurate diagnosis. Disease symptoms should be immediately recognisable in order to stop the spread of the illness. To find plant diseases, steps should be taken using computer assisted technologies. Numerous methods for identifying plant diseases using machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) have been developed and tested in numerous studies. Machine learning has the disadvantages of having …a small dataset, taking longer, and requiring more time for results interpretation. Deep learning is suggested as a solution to this. This study compares the effectiveness of both ML&DL for plant leaf disease identification with more recent investigations. The common deep learning technique involves utilising the Krill Herd Optimisation Algorithm (KHO) to segment images and the Speeded up Robust Features (SURF) to extract the images. The Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) then chooses the features. Then, a Deep Belief Network (DBN) can be used to classify the chosen image. Multiple diseases can be identified on the same leaf using this method. This study demonstrates that deep learning outperforms machine learning in terms of results. The outcome demonstrates that the deep learning method is superior for the diagnosis of plant disease when there is sufficient data available. Using this technique, the validity and consistency were also examined. Show more

Abstract: Cloud computing is a new technology that provides services to customers anywhere, anytime, under varying conditions and managed by a third-party cloud provider. Even though cloud computing has progressed a lot, some attacks still happen. The recent anomalous and signature attacks use clever strategies such as low-rate attacks and attacking as an authenticated user. In this paper, a novel Attack Detection and Prevention (ADAPT) method is proposed to overcome this issue. The proposed system consists of three stages. An Intrusion Detection System is initially used to check whether there is an attack or not by comparing the IP address in …the Blacklist IP Database. If an attack occurs, the IP address will be added to the Blacklist IP database and blocked. The second stage uses Bi-directional LSTM and Bi-directional GRU to check the anomalous and signature attack. In the third stage, classified output is sent to reinforcement learning, if any attack occurs the IP address is added to the blacklist IP database otherwise the packets are forwarded to the user. The proposed ADAPT technique achieves a higher accuracy range than existing techniques. Show more

Abstract: The rapid advancement of communication and information technology has led to the expansion and blossoming of digital music. Recently, music feature extraction and classification have emerged as a research hotspot due to the difficulty of quickly and accurately retrieving the music that consumers are looking for from a large volume of music repositories. Traditional approaches to music classification rely heavily on a wide variety of synthetically produced aural features. In this research, we propose a novel approach to selecting the musical genre from user playlists by using a classification and feature selection machine learning model. To filter, normalise, and eliminate …missing variables, we collect information on the playlist’s music genre and user history. The characteristics of this data are then selected using a convolutional belief transfer Gaussian model (CBTG) and a fuzzy recurrent adversarial encoder neural network (FRAENN). The experimental examination of a number of music genre selection datasets includes measures of training accuracy, mean average precision, F-1 score, root mean squared error (RMSE), and area under the curve (AUC). Results show that this model can both create a respectable classification result and extract valuable feature representation of songs using a wide variety of criteria. Show more
