Wireless sensor network (WSN) performs monitoring of each aspect of the area of interest by detecting the surrounding physical phenomena with sensor nodes and transferring the information to the gateway through the corresponding system. Several researcher workers have introduced localization methods to accomplish high accuracy of localization. An intelligent optimization technique has attracted various researcher workers due to its advantages such as strong optimization capability and few parameters to optimize the localization performance of the DV-Hop method. Sink node localization (NL) using metaheuristics in WSN includes applying optimization techniques inspired by human behavior or natural phenomena to define the geographical coordinates of the sink nodes within the network coverage region. WSNs can accomplish better localization performance, especially in dynamic or complex environments, improving the efficiency and reliability of network management and data transmission by leveraging metaheuristics. In this view, this manuscript develops a Dung Beetle Optimization based Sink Node Localization Approach (DBO-SNLA) for WSN. In the DBO-SNLA technique, the DBO algorithm involved is based on the social behavior of dung beetle populations and is developed with five updated rules to assist in finding high-quality solutions. In addition, the DBO-SNLA technique addresses the issues of defining the sink node location with lowest localization error once the data between the nodes is transferred wirelessly. Finally, the localization errors are calculated and the location of the different unknown nodes is computed. A detailed set of simulation takes place to examine the performance of the DBO-SNLA technique. The empirical analysis stated the betterment of the DBO-SNLA method than other techniques

Cardiovascular diseases detection or diagnosis on appropriate time is crucial to avoid health complications. In this study, an advanced procedure for classifying changes in the blood pressure has been used analyzing the wave-forms inside the arterial system where such variation can occur due to improper timing in intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) control. Inaccurate pressure extends with probable injury can be caused by improper timing in the heart valve in both pumping and compression of the balloon. This investigation focuses on accurately recognizing and classifying any irregularities in the artery wave-forms in IABP in the blood pressure initiated by mistiming. Accumulated blood pressure records are used for the progression of providing information to IABP trainer. The wave-forms require pre-handling employing image digitizing software to acquire automated identifications. Any undesirable image features have been removed using Wavelet in MATLAB software. Afterward, such features can be employed to develop a technique for arrangement depending on neural networks. The artificial neural network technique has used marked data to properly detect irregularities in wave-forms in vascular blood pressure due to improper IABP timing. As a result, the validation has proved to appropriately recognize and classify such anomalies, denoting a considerable prospect to improve patient protection with an efficacy of treatment in the area of cardiovascular prescription.

Reducing the influence of significant noise signal components on the obtained raw ECG signal is essential for precise identification of cardiac arrhythmias (CA), which frequently present as irregularities in heart rate or rhythm. Preprocessing is used to remove noise signals and baseline drift from the ECG wave that is recorded using the internet of things (IoT). After that, the denoised signal is subjected to dimensionality reduction and feature extraction. In order to determine whether classification method is more effective in detecting cardiac arrhythmias, this study compares two methods: an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system and artificial feed-forward neural networks trained with the back-propagation learning algorithm. An Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System analyses ICA features obtained by non-parametric power spectral estimates, and an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) classifier uses the ECG signal's morphological and statistical aspects to identify patterns. The creation of artificial feed-forward neural networks provides a rich framework for studying the Back Propagation Algorithm. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and positive predictiveivity are some of the performance characteristics that are thoroughly examined. An overall accuracy of 97.79%, sensitivity of 99.82%, specificity of 99.68%, and positive predictivity of 98.58% were seen in the results of the Artificial Neural Feed Forward Network (ANFFN). The Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) outperforms these metrics with an astounding overall accuracy of 99.62%, specificity of 98.63%, and positive predictivity of 99.46%. With a classification accuracy of 99.82%, ANFIS demonstrates to be the most effective classifier for identifying cardiac arrhythmias.

These days, diabetes is an incurable disease, with millions of people suffering from it worldwide. Several variables namely lack of education, crowded living conditions, obesity and improper diet are among the causes of this recent upsurge in diabetes cases. They are identified by the name of infections induced by bacteria or viruses, harmful compounds in food, autoimmune reactions, obesity, unhealthy lifestyles, and pollution in the environment. Excessive and sight-threatening diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common retinal micro-vascular dysfunction that is characterized by the occurrence of a disorder of retinal blood vessels resulting in impaired vision. The IoT-based work is conducted in this work on the machine learning (ML) techniques, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). The classification of diabetic retinopathy is a topic that is under research. The range of activities of the processes of downsampling, labelling, image flattening, and format conversion is all within the dataset preparation process. An advanced prognosis model is designed which follows a combination of two machine learning techniques such as SVM and KNN. This approach classifies the images of diabetic retinopathy into five segments (subclasses), thus facilitating in-depth analysis. Our solution proposal in this case is a superior one because of its higher classification accuracy and faster processing speed as the findings showed. The robustness and accuracy that the SVM is known for are ensured by the convergence of the KNN to the SVM. The paper also proves a close linkage of clinical symptoms and blood sugar readings to an algorithmic DM prediction system that is based on IoT and ML approaches. This is another advantage of this method that it outperforms the existing classification methods. Amongst all the classifiers that we used in this project, the KNN ML classifier turned out to be the most accurate one with an accuracy rate of 93%. It was found that the algorithm performed with a 79% accuracy rate after tough testing and training and it was consistently providing number one quality DM predictions.

This paper provides two different methods to diagnose osteoporosis in women; the first method is the fractal analysis evaluated by CBCT at two bone locations (the mandible and the second cervical vertebrae) to see if there is any correlation between the two. At the same time, the second method is deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs). One hundred eighty-eight patients' mandibular CBCT images were used, and DCNN models based on the ResNet-101 framework were employed. Dual X-ray absorptiometry of the hip and lumbar spine revealed that 139 of the 188 postmenopausal women tested had osteoporosis, whereas 49 had average bone mineral density. The second cervical vertebra and the mandible were selected as locations of interest for FD analysis on the CBCT images. Measurement accuracy, both within and between observers' agreements, and correlations between two data sets were all calculated. To evaluate osteoporosis, we used a segmented, three-phase approach. Stage 1 was devoted to the identification of mandibular bone slices. In Stage 2, the coordinates for the mandible's cross-sectional views were established, and Stage 3 calculated the thickness of the mandible bone, emphasizing osteoporotic variations. The average FD values within the interest area of the mandible were significantly lower in people with osteoporosis than in those with average bone mineral density. At the same time, the two groups had no significant difference in FD values at the second cervical vertebra. For the mandibular site, areas beneath the curve were 0.644 (P = 0.008), while the area under the curve for the vertebral site was 0.531 (P = 0.720). DCNN training in the first stage yielded an astounding 98.85% training accuracy, the second stage decreased L1 loss to a meager 1.02 pixels, and the bone thickness computation method used in the last stage had a mean squared error of 0. 8377. We concluded that FD was underutilized even though it distinguished between women with normal BMD and those with osteoporosis in the mandibular area. Additionally, even with small mandibular CBCT datasets, the results show the value of a modular transfer learning approach for osteoporosis detection.

Brain tumor classification using medical images is crucial for identification and therapy. However, brain tumors are complex and vary, making grouping them difficult. This work demonstrates a novel transfer learning method for brain tumor classification. We employ trained Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) models and data enrichment approaches to extract meaningful information from medical images. We want to fine-tune the models built on our dataset to uncover hierarchical patterns that distinguish tumor types. Through data enrichment, the training sample becomes more diverse and richer, making the model more generic and robust. Our team's extensive testing and research have shown that the suggested procedure can identify brain tumors. Our machine-learning approach performs better than others in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and precision. Our technique improves brain tumor categorization and assures accurate clinical diagnosis. Automated testing systems are one way for physicians to assist patients in selecting the best course of treatment. Researchers may improve classification performance by incorporating modern imaging technology or topic-specific data. The Internet of Things, or IoT, is helping to drive the development of complex real-time data collection, processing, and sharing systems. These technological advancements have transformed medical imaging. This graphic depicts a cutting-edge transfer learning system that may be able to identify brain cancer from medical photos. This technology has the potential to enhance data collection and processing via the Internet of Things. Data augmentation and pre-trained convolutional neural networks may help to extract interpretable medical images. The Internet of Things improved the model's flexibility, resilience, and utility. We achieved this by expanding the training data set. Rapid categorization advancements have made clinical diagnosis more efficient. Classification, deep learning, medical imaging, machine learning, transfer learning, tumor detection, and image analysis all relate to this topic.

Deep Learning, or DL for short, is an emerging subfield within the larger discipline of machine learning in today's world. The study being conducted in this area is progressing at an immediate stride, and the discoveries are contributing to the progression of technology. Deep learning (DL) methods were developed with the intention of developing a general-purpose learning method that would enable the gradual learning of characteristics at multiple levels without relying on human-engineered features. This was the goal of deep learning. Because of this, the system is able to acquire intricate purposes and directly map input to output by making use of the data that it has acquired which is based on Internet of things (IoTs). This study places an emphasis on the application of CNN (Convolutional Neural Networks), which are a subcategory of DNN (Deep Neural Networks), and it develops an efficient layered CNN for the classification of ECG arrhythmias. Even while FC-ANNs (Fully Connected Artificial Neural Networks), which are sometimes referred to as Multilayer-Perceptron networks, are effective in categorising ECG arrhythmias, the optimization process for many classification networks takes a significant amount of time in terms of computation. In addition, the features extracted by engineers are what define the accuracy of the categorization of ECG arrhythmias. An improved CNN based filtering, feature abstraction, and classification prototypical is established in order to conduct an accurate analysis of an electrocardiogram (ECG). When measured against ANN, the performance was found to have an accuracy rating of 99.6%. Consequently, the CNN model that was suggested is useful to doctors in arriving at the definitive diagnosis of AFL (atrial flutter), AFIB (atrial fibrillation), VFL (ventricular flutter), and VT (ventricular tachycardia). It includes denoising, feature extraction, and categorization as part of its functionality.
