Smart manufacturing systems are growing based on the various requests for predicting the reliability and quality of equipment. Many machine learning techniques are being examined to that end. Another issue which considers an important part of industry is data security and management. To overcome the problems mentioned above, we applied the integrated methods of blockchain and machine learning to secure system transactions and handle a dataset to overcome the fake dataset. To manage and analyze the collected dataset, big data techniques were used. The blockchain system was implemented in the private Hyperledger Fabric platform. Similarly, the fault diagnosis prediction aspect was evaluated based on the hybrid prediction technique. The system’s quality control was evaluated based on non-linear machine learning techniques, which modeled that complex environment and found the true positive rate of the system’s quality control approach.

The emergence of biomedical sensor devices, wireless communication, and innovation in other technologies for healthcare applications result in the evolution of a new area of research that is termed as Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs). WBAN originates from Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), which are used for implementing many healthcare systems integrated with networks and wireless devices to ensure remote healthcare monitoring. WBAN is a network of wearable devices implanted in or on the human body. The main aim of WBAN is to collect the human vital signs/physiological data (like ECG, body temperature, EMG, glucose level, etc.) round-the-clock from patients that demand secure, optimal and efficient routing techniques. The efficient, secure, and reliable designing of routing protocol is a difficult task in WBAN due to its diverse characteristic and restraints, such as energy consumption and temperature-rise of implanted sensors. The two significant constraints, overheating of nodes and energy efficiency must be taken into account while designing a reliable blockchain-enabled WBAN routing protocol. The purpose of this study is to achieve stability and efficiency in the routing of WBAN through managing temperature and energy limitations. Moreover, the blockchain provides security, transparency, and lightweight solution for the interoperability of physiological data with other medical personnel in the healthcare ecosystem. In this research work, the blockchain-based Adaptive Thermal-/Energy-Aware Routing (ATEAR) protocol for WBAN is proposed. Temperature rise, energy consumption, and throughput are the evaluation metrics considered to analyze the performance of ATEAR for data transmission. In contrast, transaction throughput, latency, and resource utilization are used to investigate the outcome of the blockchain system. Hyperledger Caliper, a benchmarking tool, is used to evaluate the performance of the blockchain system in terms of CPU utilization, memory, and memory utilization. The results show that by preserving residual energy and avoiding overheated nodes as forwarders, high throughput is achieved with the ultimate increase of the network lifetime. Castalia, a simulation tool, is used to evaluate the performance of the proposed protocol, and its comparison is made with Multipath Ring Routing Protocol (MRRP), thermal-aware routing algorithm (TARA), and Shortest-Hop (SHR). Evaluation results illustrate that the proposed protocol performs significantly better in balancing of temperature (to avoid damaging heat effect on the body tissues) and energy consumption (to prevent the replacement of battery and to increase the embedded sensor node life) with efficient data transmission achieving a high throughput value.

One of the essential points of food manufacturing in the industry and shelf life of the products is to improve the food traceability system. In recent years, the food traceability mechanism has become one of the emerging blockchain applications in order to improve the anti-counterfeiting area’s quality. Many food manufacturing systems have a low level of readability, scalability, and data accuracy. Similarly, this process is complicated in the supply chain and needs a lot of time for processing. The blockchain system creates a new ontology in the traceability system supply chain to deal with these issues. In this paper, a blockchain machine learning-based food traceability system (BMLFTS) is proposed in order to combine the new extension in blockchain, Machine Learning technology (ML), and fuzzy logic traceability system that is based on the shelf life management system for manipulating perishable food. The blockchain technology in the proposed system has been developed in order to address light-weight, evaporation, warehouse transactions, or shipping time. The blockchain data flow is designed to show the extension of ML at the level of food traceability. Finally, reliable and accurate data are used in a supply chain to improve shelf life.

The growth of data production in the manufacturing industry causes the monitoring system to become an essential concept for decision-making and management. The recent powerful technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), which is sensor-based, can process suitable ways to monitor the manufacturing process. The proposed system in this research is the integration of IoT, Machine Learning (ML), and for monitoring the manufacturing system. The environmental data are collected from IoT sensors, including temperature, humidity, gyroscope, and accelerometer. The data types generated from sensors are unstructured, massive, and real-time. Various big data techniques are applied to further process of the data. The hybrid prediction model used in this system uses the Random Forest classification technique to remove the sensor data outliers and donate fault detection through the manufacturing system. The proposed system was evaluated for automotive manufacturing in South Korea. The technique applied in this system is used to secure and improve the data trust to avoid real data changes with fake data and system transactions. The results section provides the effectiveness of the proposed system compared to other approaches. Moreover, the hybrid prediction model provides an acceptable fault prediction than other inputs. The expected process from the proposed method is to enhance decision-making and reduce the faults through the manufacturing process.

The battery management system in an electric vehicle must be reliable and durable to forecast the state of charge. Considering that battery degradation is generally nonlinear, state of charge (SOC) estimation with lower degradation can be challenging. Lithium-ion batteries are highly dependent on the knowledge of aging, which is usually costly or not available online. In this paper, we suggest the state of charge estimation of lithium-ion battery systems by using an extreme gradient boosting algorithm for electric vehicles application, which acquires the nonlinear relationship model can with offline training. The extreme gradient boosting algorithm is the tree on based learning, which effectively performs and speeds. Voltage-time data used as an input of this system from the partial constant current phase; the proposed algorithm improves the accuracy of predicting the relevant. Additionally, no initial state of charge is required in our proposed method; thus, estimating the state of charge can consider each battery state.

During recent developments, cryptocurrency has become a famous key factor in financial and business opportunities. However, the cryptocurrency investment is not visible regarding the market’s inconsistent aspect and volatility of high prices. Due to the real-time prediction of prices, the previous approaches in price prediction doesn’t contain enough information and solution for forecasting the price changes. Based on the mentioned problems in cryptocurrency price prediction, we proposed a machine learning-based approach to price prediction for a financial institution. The proposed system contains the blockchain framework for secure transaction environment and Reinforcement Learning algorithm for analysis and prediction of price. The main focus of this system is on Litecoin and Monero cryptocurrencies. The results show the presented system accurate the performance of price prediction higher than another state-of-art algorithm.
