Cyberattack classification involves applying deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) models to categorize digital threats based on their features and behaviors. These models examine system logs, network traffic, or other associated data patterns to discriminate between standard activities and malicious actions. Efficient cyberattack classification is vital for on-time threat detection and response, permitting cybersecurity specialists to categorize and reduce potential risks to a system. Handling class-imbalanced data in cyberattack classification using DL is critical for achieving exact and robust models. In cybersecurity databases, instances of normal behavior frequently significantly outnumber instances of cyberattacks, foremost due to biased methods that may complete poorly on minority classes. To address this issue approaches such as oversampling the lesser class, undersampling the popular class, or using more advanced systems can be used. These plans defend that the DL technique is more complex when determining cyberattacks, so it increases complete performance and adapts the effect of the imbalance class on the classification results. This study presents a novel Hybrid Salp Swarm Algorithm with a DL Approach for Cyberattack Classification (HSSADL-CAC) technique. The HSSADL-CAC method intends to resolve class imbalance data handling with an optimum DL model for the recognition of cyberattacks. At first, the HSSADL-CAC method experiences data normalization as a pre-processing stage. The HSSADL-CAC technique uses the ADASYN approach to handle class imbalance problems. In addition, the HSSADL-CAC technique applies an HSSA-based feature selection approach. The HSSADL-CAC technique detects cyberattacks using a deep extreme learning machine (DELM) model. Finally, the hyperparameter tuning of the ELM model takes place by utilizing the beluga whale optimization (BWO) model. The performance analysis of the HSSADL-CAC technique employs a benchmark database. The comprehensive comparison research indicates the superior performance of the HSSADL-CAC technique in the cyberattack detection procedure.

The Internet of Things (IoTs) revolutionizes the consumer electronics landscape by presenting a degree of personalization and interactivity that was previously unimaginable. Interconnected devices are now familiar with user characteristics, giving custom skills that improve the user's satisfaction. Still, IoT remains to transform the consumer electronics field; security in IoT becomes critical, and it is utilized by cyber attackers to pose risks to public safety, compromise data privacy, gain unauthorized access, and even disrupt operations. Robust security measures are crucial for maintaining trust in the proliferation and adoption of interconnected technologies, mitigating those risks, protecting sensitive data, and certifying the integrity of the IoT ecosystem. An intrusion detection system (IDS) is paramount in IoT security, as it dynamically monitors device behaviours and network traffic to detect and mitigate any possible cyber threats. Using machine learning (ML) methods and anomaly detection algorithms, IDS can rapidly identify abnormal activities, unauthorized access, or malicious behaviours within the IoT ecosystem, thus preserving the integrity of interconnected devices and networks, safeguarding sensitive data, and protecting against cyber-attacks. This work presents an Improved Crayfish Optimization Algorithm with Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Deep Learning (ICOA-IT2FDL) technique for Intrusion Detection on IoT infrastructure. The main intention of the ICOA-IT2FDL technique is to utilize a hyperparameter-tuned improved deep learning (DL) method for intrusion detection, thereby improving safety in the IoT infrastructure. BC technology can be used to accomplish security among consumer electronics. The ICOA-IT2FDL technique employs a linear scaling normalization (LSN) approach for data normalization. In addition, features are selected using an improved crayfish optimization algorithm (ICOA). This is followed by the ICOA-IT2FDL technique, which applies the interval type-2 fuzzy deep belief network (IT2-FDBN) model to identify intrusions. Finally, the bald eagle search (BES) model strategy improves the intrusion recognition rate. A series of investigations is accomplished to ensure the enhanced accomplishment of the ICOA-IT2FDL model. The experimentation results specified that the ICOA-IT2FDL model shows better recognition results compared to recent models.

Sleep habits are strongly related to health behaviors, with sleep quality serving as a major health indicator. Current approaches for evaluating sleep quality, namely polysomnography and questionnaires, are often time-consuming, costly, or invasive. Thus, there is a pressing need for a more convenient, nonintrusive, and cost-effective method. The applications of deep learning (DL) in sleep quality prediction represent a groundbreaking technique for addressing sleep-related disorders. In this aspect, the article offers the design of a Modified Bald Eagle Search Algorithm with Deep Learning-Driven Sleep Quality Prediction (MBES-DLSQP) for Healthcare Monitoring Systems. The MBES-DLSQP technique combines the strengths of a DL model with a hyperparameter tuning strategy to provide precise sleep quality predictions. At the primary stage, the MBES-DLSQP technique undergoes data pre-processing. Besides, the MBES-DLSQP technique uses a stacked sparse autoencoder (SSAE)-based prediction model, which can extract and encode high-dimensional sleep data. The MBES-DLSQP incorporates MBESA-based hyperparameter tuning which assures its optimal configurations to further boost the efficiency of the SSAE model. The experimental outcome of the MBES-DLSQP algorithm is tested on the sleep dataset from the Kaggle repository. The experimental value infers that the MBES-DLSQP technique shows promising performance in sleep quality prediction with a maximum accuracy of 98.33%.

The Federated learning (FL) technique resolves the issue of training machine learning (ML) techniques on distributed networks, including the huge volume of modern smart devices. FL clients frequently use Wi-Fi and have to interact in unstable network surroundings. However, as the present FL aggregation approaches receive and send a large number of weights, accuracy can be decreased considerably in unstable network surroundings. Therefore, this study presents a Quantum with Metaheuristics Algorithm Based Minimization of Communication Costs in Federated Learning (QMAMCC-FL) technique. The presented QMAMCC-FL technique is designed a federated hybrid convolutional neural network with a gated recurrent unit (HCNN-GRU) model with a quantum Aquila optimization (QAO) algorithm. The QMAMCC-FL technique upgrades the global model via weight collection of the learned model, which is commonly used in FL. The proposed model can be employed to increase the performance of network communication and reduce the size of data transmitted from clients to servers such as smartphones and tablets. The experimental analysis of the QMAMCC-FL approach is tested, and the outcomes show better performance over other existing models.

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a rapidly developing technology, and RFID sensors have become important components in many common technology applications.

The textile and apparel industry is one of the biggest competitive industries in the world. Nowadays, industry 4.0 concepts put pressures on textile and apparel companies to integrate advanced technologies. Consequently, Business Intelligence (BI) systems are diffusing rapidly to process large data sets to harness the true value of smart technologies. Regardless of its potentials, most textile and apparel companies are lagging and hesitating to adopt this credible innovation in the presence of a high failure rate (70%-80%) especially in developing countries. To achieve the successful adoption of BI systems, statistical assessment is required to better understand this complex phenomenon. Therefore, a BI system model based on Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) is developed to evaluate the role of potential determinants pertaining to the users, technology, organization, and environment. Data were collected using a survey with self-administered questionnaires from decision-makers with authoritative designations in the textile and apparel industry, academia, and software companies. Influential relationships among critical determinants were assessed and validated by using Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) approach. The results of this study would contribute to the success of costly BI system projects and will motivate the industry experts to potentially assign investments for the BI projects in the developing countries to sustain in the competitive markets.

Cannibalism is ubiquitous in natural communities and has the tendency to change the functional connection among prey-predator interactions. Keeping in view the inclusion of prey cannibalism, a novel discrete nonlinear predator-prey model is proposed. Asymptotic stability is carried out around biologically feasible equilibria of proposed model. Center manifold theorem and bifurcation theory of normal form ensure the existence of bifurcation in the system. Our study reveals that periodic outbreaks may result due to incorporation of cannibalism in prey population and this periodic outbreak is limited to prey population only without leaving an effect on predation. In order to control these periodic oscillations in prey population density and other bifurcating and fluctuating behavior of the system, various chaos control strategies are implemented. Ultimately, some extensive numerical simulations are elaborated to demonstrate the effectiveness of our acquired analytical and theoretical results.

Antibiotics have received a lot of attention as promising contaminants because of their ecotoxicological and long-term chemical stability in the atmosphere. Antibiotic adsorption on carbon-based materials (CBMs) such as charcoal and activated carbon has been identified as mainly effective for treating the wastewater strategies. Machine learning (ML) approaches were used to create generalized computation methods for tetracycline (TC) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) adsorption in CBMs in this investigation. In the existing system, random forest and ANN methods were used for TC and SMX for predicting the quantities of antibiotics in the CBMs. For reducing the antibiotics from the industrial wastewater, the broadcast efforts of the experiments are a little complicated. In the proposed method, Gaussian process regression (GPR), active learning (AL), and ANN are used for predicting the antibiotic levels in the industrial wastewater. Below a variety of environmental parameters (e.g., warmth, solution pH) and adsorbent varieties, the created Ml algorithms outperformed classic isotherm models in conditions of generalisation. To evaluate TC and SMX adsorption on CBMs, we used comparative significance investigation and partial trust plots based on ML models. The proposed GPR reduces the antibiotics in wastewater; minimal experimental screening and the comparative significance and partial trust plot help in the treatment of wastewater.

Purification of polluted water and return back to the agriculture field is the wastewater treatment for plants. Contaminated water causes illness and health emergencies of public. Also, health risk due release of toxic contaminants brings problem to all living beings. At present, sensors are used in waste water treatment and transfer data via internet of things (IoT). Prediction of wastewater quality content which is presence of total nitrogen (T-N) and total phosphorous (T-P) elements, chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical demand (BOD), and total suspended solids (TSS) is associated with eutrophication that should be prevented. This may leads to algal bloom and spoils aquatic life which is consumed by human. The presence of nitrogen and phosphorous elements is in the content of wastewater, and these elements are associated with eutrophication which should be prevented. Adsorption of T-N and T-P activated carbon was predictable as one of the most promising methods for wastewater treatment. Many research works have been done. The issues are inefficiency in the prediction of wastewater treatment. To overcome this issue, this paper proposed fusion of B-KNN with the ELM algorithm that is used. The accuracy of the BKNN-ELM algorithm in classification of water quality status produced the highest accuracy of the highest accuracy which is K=9 and k=10 with rate of accuracy which is 93.56%, and the lowest accuracy is K=1 of 65.34%. Experiment evaluation shows that a total suspended solid predicted by proposed model is 91 with accuracy of 93%. The relative error rate of prediction is 12.03 which is lesser than existing models.

Activated carbon is one of the most highly proven adsorbents for organic chemicals from wastewater. It acts as a filter and adsorbs various chemicals from the wastewater. It has large pore size and strong adsorptive capacity. The quality of wastewater is generally determined by chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), total suspended solids (TSSs), total phosphorus (TP), and total nitrogen (TN). Wastewater contaminant measurement is significant for saving aquatic life and reusing treated water. Adsorption of contaminants that contribute for wastewater quality indicators uses machine learning algorithm for prediction. Many research works have been done, and the issues are inefficiency and time consuming in the adsorption of contaminants by activated carbon in wastewater management. To overcome these issues, this paper introduces hybrid technique of Voting-Based Extreme Learning Machine with sine cosine algorithm (VELM-SCA). The accuracy of VELM-SCA algorithm in classification of water quality status produced improved accuracy is 0.97.

The temperature of nanoparticles boosted with the viscosity parameter while a declining pattern of temperature is noted for the thermal Biot number. The skin friction coefficient periodically increases with the viscosity vector and couple stress parameter.

Cloud cryptography is the art of converting plain text into an unreadable format, which protects data and prevents the data from being misused by the attacker. Different researchers designed various Caesar cipher algorithms for data security. With the help of these algorithms, the data can be converted into a nonreadable format, but the data cannot be completely secured. In this paper, data security is provided in different phases. Firstly, data are secured through a bit-reversing mechanism in which those replace the actual values with no relation to the original data. Then the four-bit values are added at the beginning and end of bits using a salting mechanism to interlink the salting and existing bit-values and hide the original data. A Caesar cipher value is obtained by applying the Caesar cipher algorithm to the resulting bits. The Caesar cipher algorithm is used to implement number-of-shifting on the obtained values. An efficient cipher matrix algorithm is then developed in which different rules are designed to encrypt the data. Afterward, a secure cipher value is obtained by implementing Cipher XORation rules on the result obtained and the user-defined key. In the end, the proposed algorithm is compared with various papers. It identifies how much better the proposed algorithm performs than all the previous algorithms and how much the attack rate can be reduced if this algorithm is used for data security.

Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) including machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) models has been commonly employed for the automated disease diagnosis process. AI in biological and biomedical imaging is an emerging area and will be a future trend in the field. At the same time, biomedical images can be used for the classification of Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) diseases. RA is an autoimmune illness that affects the musculoskeletal system causing systemic, inflammatory and chronic effects. The disease frequently becomes progressive and decreases physical function, causing articular damage, suffering, and fatigue. After a time, RA causes harm to the cartilage of the joints and bones, weakens the tendons and joints, and finally causes joint destruction. Sensors (thermal infrared camera sensor, accelerometers and wearable sensors) are more commonly employed to collect data for RA. This study develops an Automated Rheumatoid Arthritis Classification using an Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm with Deep Learning (ARAC-AOADL) model. The goal of the presented ARAC-AOADL technique lies in the classification of health disorders depending upon RA and orthopaedics. Primarily, the presented ARAC-AOADL technique pre-processes the input images by median filtering (MF) technique. Then, the ARAC-AOADL technique uses AOA with an enhanced capsule network (ECN) model to produce feature vectors. For RA classification, the ARAC-AOADL technique uses a multi-kernel extreme learning machine (MKELM) model. The experimental result analysis of the ARAC-AOADL technique on a benchmark dataset reported a maximum accuracy of 98.57%. Therefore, the ARAC-AOADL technique can be employed for accurate and timely RA classification.

This paper aims to develop a new mobile robot path planning algorithm, called generalized laser simulator (GLS), for navigating autonomously mobile robots in the presence of static and dynamic obstacles. This algorithm enables a mobile robot to identify a feasible path while finding the target and avoiding obstacles while moving in complex regions. An optimal path between the start and target point is found by forming a wave of points in all directions towards the target position considering target minimum and border maximum distance principles. The algorithm will select the minimum path from the candidate points to target while avoiding obstacles. The obstacle borders are regarded as the environment’s borders for static obstacle avoidance. However, once dynamic obstacles appear in front of the GLS waves, the system detects them as new dynamic obstacle borders. Several experiments were carried out to validate the effectiveness and practicality of the GLS algorithm, including path-planning experiments in the presence of obstacles in a complex dynamic environment. The findings indicate that the robot could successfully find the correct path while avoiding obstacles. The proposed method is compared to other popular methods in terms of speed and path length in both real and simulated environments. According to the results, the GLS algorithm outperformed the original laser simulator (LS) method in path and success rate. With application of the all-direction border scan, it outperforms the A-star (A*) and PRM algorithms and provides safer and shorter paths. Furthermore, the path planning approach was validated for local planning in simulation and real-world tests, in which the proposed method produced the best path compared to the original LS algorithm.

The presence of buoyancy parameters enhanced nanofluid temperature, concentration and microorganisms profiles. The obtained theoretical observation reveal applications in industrial, engineering and thermal processes which heat transfer involved. The claimed results are useful to improve the cooling and heating processes, energy generation, thermal devices, solar systems, manufacturing processes etc.

Object detection is a computer vision based technique which is used to detect instances of semantic objects of a particular class in digital images and videos. Crowd density analysis is one of the commonly utilized applications of object detection. Since crowd density classification techniques face challenges like non-uniform density, occlusion, inter-scene, and intra-scene deviations, convolutional neural network (CNN) models are useful. This paper presents a Metaheuristics with Deep Transfer Learning Enabled Intelligent Crowd Density Detection and Classification (MDTL-ICDDC) model for video surveillance systems. The proposed MDTL-ICDDC technique mostly concentrates on the effective identification and classification of crowd density on video surveillance systems. In order to achieve this, the MDTL-ICDDC model primarily leverages a Salp Swarm Algorithm (SSA) with NASNetLarge model as a feature extraction in which the hyperparameter tuning process is performed by the SSA. Furthermore, a weighted extreme learning machine (WELM) method was utilized for crowd density and classification process. Finally, the krill swarm algorithm (KSA) is applied for an effective parameter optimization process and thereby improves the classification results. The experimental validation of the MDTL-ICDDC approach was carried out with a benchmark dataset, and the outcomes are examined under several aspects. The experimental values indicated that the MDTL-ICDDC system has accomplished enhanced performance over other models such as Gabor, BoW-SRP, Bow-LBP, GLCM-SVM, GoogleNet, and VGGNet.
