Internet of Things (IoT) devices usage is increasing exponentially with the spread of the internet. With the increasing capacity of data on IoT devices, these devices are becoming venerable to malware attacks; therefore, malware detection becomes an important issue in IoT devices. An effective, reliable, and time-efficient mechanism is required for the identification of sophisticated malware. Researchers have proposed multiple methods for malware detection in recent years, however, accurate detection remains a challenge. We propose a deep learning-based ensemble classification method for the detection of malware in IoT devices. It uses a three steps approach; in the first step, data is preprocessed using scaling, normalization, and de-noising, whereas in the second step, features are selected and one hot encoding is applied followed by the ensemble classifier based on CNN and LSTM outputs for detection of malware. We have compared results with the state-of-the-art methods and our proposed method outperforms the existing methods on standard datasets with an average accuracy of 99.5%.

The high data rates detail that internet-connected devices have been increasing exponentially. Cognitive radio (CR) is an auspicious technology used to address the resource shortage issue in wireless IoT networks. Resource optimization is considered a non-convex and nondeterministic polynomial (NP) complete problem within CR-based Internet of Things (IoT) networks (CR-IoT). Moreover, the combined optimization of conflicting objectives is a challenging issue in CR-IoT networks. In this paper, energy efficiency (EE) and spectral efficiency (SE) are considered as conflicting optimization objectives. This research work proposed a hybrid tabu search-based stimulated algorithm (HTSA) in order to achieve Pareto optimality between EE and SE. In addition, the fuzzy-based decision is employed to achieve better Pareto optimality. The performance of the proposed HTSA approach is analyzed using different resource allocation parameters and validated through simulation results.

Automatic Text Summarization (ATS) is gaining attention because a large volume of data is being generated at an exponential rate. Due to easy internet availability globally, a large amount of data is being generated from social networking websites, news websites and blog websites. Manual summarization is time consuming, and it is difficult to read and summarize a large amount of content. Automatic text summarization is the solution to deal with this problem. This study proposed two automatic text summarization models which are Genetic Algorithm with Hierarchical Clustering (GA-HC) and Particle Swarm Optimization with Hierarchical Clustering (PSO-HC). The proposed models use a word embedding model with Hierarchal Clustering Algorithm to group sentences conveying almost same meaning. Modified GA and adaptive PSO based sentence ranking models are proposed for text summary in news text documents. Simulations are conducted and compared with other understudied algorithms to evaluate the performance of proposed methodology. Simulations results validate the superior performance of the proposed methodology.
