Abstract The rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the industrial sector has given rise to a new term: the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The IIoT is a collection of devices, apps, and services that connect physical and virtual worlds to create smart, cost-effective, and scalable systems. Although the IIoT has been implemented and incorporated into a wide range of industrial control systems, maintaining its security and privacy remains a significant concern. In the IIoT contexts, an intrusion detection system (IDS) can be an effective security solution for ensuring data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. In this paper, we… More >

Abstract CC’s (Cloud Computing) networks are distributed and dynamic as signals appear/disappear or lose significance. MLTs (Machine learning Techniques) train datasets which sometime are inadequate in terms of sample for inferring information. A dynamic strategy, DevMLOps (Development Machine Learning Operations) used in automatic selections and tunings of MLTs result in significant performance differences. But, the scheme has many disadvantages including continuity in training, more samples and training time in feature selections and increased classification execution times. RFEs (Recursive Feature Eliminations) are computationally very expensive in its operations as it traverses through each feature without considering correlations between them. This problem can… More >

Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the emergent technologies with advanced developments in several applications like creating smart environments, enabling Industry 4.0, etc. As IoT devices operate via an inbuilt and limited power supply, the effective utilization of available energy plays a vital role in designing the IoT environment. At the same time, the communication of IoT devices in wireless mediums poses security as a challenging issue. Recently, intrusion detection systems (IDS) have paved the way to detect the presence of intrusions in the IoT environment. With this motivation, this article introduces a novel Quantum Cat Swarm Optimization… More >

Abstract In the Internet of Things (IoT) based system, the multi-level client’s requirements can be fulfilled by incorporating communication technologies with distributed homogeneous networks called ubiquitous computing systems (UCS). The UCS necessitates heterogeneity, management level, and data transmission for distributed users. Simultaneously, security remains a major issue in the IoT-driven UCS. Besides, energy-limited IoT devices need an effective clustering strategy for optimal energy utilization. The recent developments of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) concepts can be employed to effectively design intrusion detection systems (IDS) for accomplishing security in UCS. In this view, this study designs a novel Blockchain with Explainable Artificial Intelligence… More >

Abstract Data mining and analytics involve inspecting and modeling large pre-existing datasets to discover decision-making information. Precision agriculture uses data mining to advance agricultural developments. Many farmers aren’t getting the most out of their land because they don’t use precision agriculture. They harvest crops without a well-planned recommendation system. Future crop production is calculated by combining environmental conditions and management behavior, yielding numerical and categorical data. Most existing research still needs to address data preprocessing and crop categorization/classification. Furthermore, statistical analysis receives less attention, despite producing more accurate and valid results. The study was conducted on a dataset about Karnataka state,… More >

Abstract Finding clusters based on density represents a significant class of clustering algorithms. These methods can discover clusters of various shapes and sizes. The most studied algorithm in this class is the Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN). It identifies clusters by grouping the densely connected objects into one group and discarding the noise objects. It requires two input parameters: epsilon (fixed neighborhood radius) and MinPts (the lowest number of objects in epsilon). However, it can’t handle clusters of various densities since it uses a global value for epsilon. This article proposes an adaptation of the DBSCAN method so… More >

Abstract The random-value impulse noise (RVIN) detection approach in image denoising, which is dependent on manually defined detection thresholds or local window information, does not have strong generalization performance and cannot successfully cope with damaged pictures with high noise levels. The fusion of the K-means clustering approach in the noise detection stage is reviewed in this research, and the internal relationship between the flat region and the detail area of the damaged picture is thoroughly explored to suggest an unique two-stage method for gray image denoising. Based on the concept of pixel clustering and grouping, all pixels in the damaged picture… More >

Abstract A document layout can be more informative than merely a document’s visual and structural appearance. Thus, document layout analysis (DLA) is considered a necessary prerequisite for advanced processing and detailed document image analysis to be further used in several applications and different objectives. This research extends the traditional approaches of DLA and introduces the concept of semantic document layout analysis (SDLA) by proposing a novel framework for semantic layout analysis and characterization of handwritten manuscripts. The proposed SDLA approach enables the derivation of implicit information and semantic characteristics, which can be effectively utilized in dozens of practical applications for various… More >

Abstract Clustering high dimensional data is challenging as data dimensionality increases the distance between data points, resulting in sparse regions that degrade clustering performance. Subspace clustering is a common approach for processing high-dimensional data by finding relevant features for each cluster in the data space. Subspace clustering methods extend traditional clustering to account for the constraints imposed by data streams. Data streams are not only high-dimensional, but also unbounded and evolving. This necessitates the development of subspace clustering algorithms that can handle high dimensionality and adapt to the unique characteristics of data streams. Although many articles have contributed to the literature… More >
