Abstract In the evolving landscape of the smart grid (SG), the integration of non-organic multiple access (NOMA) technology has emerged as a pivotal strategy for enhancing spectral efficiency and energy management. However, the open nature of wireless channels in SG raises significant concerns regarding the confidentiality of critical control messages, especially when broadcasted from a neighborhood gateway (NG) to smart meters (SMs). This paper introduces a novel approach based on reinforcement learning (RL) to fortify the performance of secrecy. Motivated by the need for efficient and effective training of the fully connected layers in the RL… More >

Abstract To enhance the diversity and distribution uniformity of initial population, as well as to avoid local extrema in the Chimp Optimization Algorithm (CHOA), this paper improves the CHOA based on chaos initialization and Cauchy mutation. First, Sin chaos is introduced to improve the random population initialization scheme of the CHOA, which not only guarantees the diversity of the population, but also enhances the distribution uniformity of the initial population. Next, Cauchy mutation is added to optimize the global search ability of the CHOA in the process of position (threshold) updating to avoid the CHOA falling More >

Abstract Cloud computing provides a diverse and adaptable resource pool over the internet, allowing users to tap into various resources as needed. It has been seen as a robust solution to relevant challenges. A significant delay can hamper the performance of IoT-enabled cloud platforms. However, efficient task scheduling can lower the cloud infrastructure’s energy consumption, thus maximizing the service provider’s revenue by decreasing user job processing times. The proposed Modified Chimp-Whale Optimization Algorithm called Modified Chimp-Whale Optimization Algorithm (MCWOA), combines elements of the Chimp Optimization Algorithm (COA) and the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA). To enhance MCWOA’s… More >

Abstract Feature Selection (FS) is an important problem that involves selecting the most informative subset of features from a dataset to improve classification accuracy. However, due to the high dimensionality and complexity of the dataset, most optimization algorithms for feature selection suffer from a balance issue during the search process. Therefore, the present paper proposes a hybrid Sine-Cosine Chimp Optimization Algorithm (SCChOA) to address the feature selection problem. In this approach, firstly, a multi-cycle iterative strategy is designed to better combine the Sine-Cosine Algorithm (SCA) and the Chimp Optimization Algorithm (ChOA), enabling a more effective search… More >

Abstract Data mining plays a crucial role in extracting meaningful knowledge from large-scale data repositories, such as data warehouses and databases. Association rule mining, a fundamental process in data mining, involves discovering correlations, patterns, and causal structures within datasets. In the healthcare domain, association rules offer valuable opportunities for building knowledge bases, enabling intelligent diagnoses, and extracting invaluable information rapidly. This paper presents a novel approach called the Machine Learning based Association Rule Mining and Classification for Healthcare Data Management System (MLARMC-HDMS). The MLARMC-HDMS technique integrates classification and association rule mining (ARM) processes. Initially, the chimp… More >

Abstract Eye state classification acts as a vital part of the biomedical sector, for instance, smart home device control, drowsy driving recognition, and so on. The modifications in the cognitive levels can be reflected via transforming the electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. The deep learning (DL) models automated extract the features and often showcased improved outcomes over the conventional classification model in the recognition processes. This paper presents an Ensemble Deep Learning with Chimp Optimization Algorithm for EEG Eye State Classification (EDLCOA-ESC). The proposed EDLCOA-ESC technique involves min-max normalization approach as a pre-processing step. Besides, wavelet packet decomposition More >

Abstract The Covid-19 outbreak has an unprecedented effects on people's daily lives throughout the world, causing immense stress amongst individuals owing to enhanced psychological disorders like depression, stress, and anxiety. Researchers have used social media data to detect behaviour changes in individuals with depression, postpartum changes and stress detection since it reveals critical aspects of mental and emotional diseases. Considerable efforts have been made to examine the psychological health of people which have limited performance in accuracy and demand increased training time. To conquer such issues, this paper proposes an efficient depression detection framework named Improved… More >

Abstract Early diagnosis and detection are important tasks in controlling the spread of COVID-19. A number of Deep Learning techniques has been established by researchers to detect the presence of COVID-19 using CT scan images and X-rays. However, these methods suffer from biased results and inaccurate detection of the disease. So, the current research article developed Oppositional-based Chimp Optimization Algorithm and Deep Dense Convolutional Neural Network (OCOA-DDCNN) for COVID-19 prediction using CT images in IoT environment. The proposed methodology works on the basis of two stages such as pre-processing and prediction. Initially, CT scan images generated… More >
