The emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) and its subsequent evolution into the Internet of Everything (IoE) is a result of the rapid growth of information and communication technologies (ICT). However, implementing these technologies comes with certain obstacles, such as the limited availability of energy resources and processing power. Consequently, there is a need for energy-efficient and intelligent load-balancing models, particularly in healthcare, where real-time applications generate large volumes of data. This paper proposes a novel, energy-aware artificial intelligence (AI)-based load balancing model that employs the Chaotic Horse Ride Optimization Algorithm (CHROA) and big data analytics (BDA) for cloud-enabled IoT environments. The CHROA technique enhances the optimization capacity of the Horse Ride Optimization Algorithm (HROA) using chaotic principles. The proposed CHROA model balances the load, optimizes available energy resources using AI techniques, and is evaluated using various metrics. Experimental results show that the CHROA model outperforms existing models. For instance, while the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC), Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA), and Whale Defense Algorithm with Firefly Algorithm (WD-FA) techniques attain average throughputs of 58.247 Kbps, 59.957 Kbps, and 60.819 Kbps, respectively, the CHROA model achieves an average throughput of 70.122 Kbps. The proposed CHROA-based model presents an innovative approach to intelligent load balancing and energy optimization in cloud-enabled IoT environments. The results highlight its potential to address critical challenges and contribute to developing efficient and sustainable IoT/IoE solutions.

Deep learning is playing a major role in identifying complicated structure, and it outperforms in term of training and classification tasks in comparison to traditional algorithms. In this work, a local cloud-based solution is developed for classification of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) as MRI scans as input modality. The multi-classification is used for AD variety and is classified into four stages. In order to leverage the capabilities of the pre-trained GoogLeNet model, transfer learning is employed. The GoogLeNet model, which is pre-trained for image classification tasks, is fine-tuned for the specific purpose of multi-class AD classification. Through this process, a better accuracy of 98% is achieved. As a result, a local cloud web application for Alzheimer’s prediction is developed using the proposed architectures of GoogLeNet. This application enables doctors to remotely check for the presence of AD in patients.

Glaucoma, a leading cause of permanent blindness worldwide, necessitates early detection to prevent vision loss, a task that is challenging and time-consuming when performed manually. This study proposes an automatic glaucoma detection method on enhanced retinal images using deep learning. The system analyzes retinal images, generating masks for the optic disc and optic cup, and providing a classification for glaucoma diagnosis. We employ a U-Net architecture with a pretrained residual neural network (ResNet34) for segmentation and an EfficientNetB0 for classification. The proposed framework is tested on publicly available datasets, including ORIGA, REFUGE, RIM-ONE DL, and HRF. Our work evaluated the U-Net model with five pretrained backbones (ResNet34, ResNet50, VGG19, DenseNet121, and EfficientNetB0) and examined preprocessing effects. We optimized model training with limited data using transfer learning and data augmentation techniques. The segmentation model achieves a mean intersection over union (mIoU) value of 0.98. The classification model shows remarkable performance with 99.9% training and 100% testing accuracy on ORIGA, 99.9% training and 99% testing accuracy on RIM-ONE DL, and 98% training and 100% testing accuracy on HRF. The proposed model outperforms related works and demonstrates potential for accurate glaucoma classification and detection tasks.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been a disastrous event that has elevated several psychological issues such as depression given abrupt social changes and lack of employment. At the same time, social scientists and psychologists have gained significant interest in understanding the way people express emotions and sentiments at the time of pandemics. During the rise in COVID-19 cases with stricter lockdowns, people expressed their sentiments on social media. This offers a deep understanding of human psychology during catastrophic events. By exploiting user-generated content on social media such as Twitter, people’s thoughts and sentiments can be examined, which aids in introducing health intervention policies and awareness campaigns. The recent developments of natural language processing (NLP) and deep learning (DL) models have exposed noteworthy performance in sentiment analysis. With this in mind, this paper presents a new sunflower optimization with deep-learning-driven sentiment analysis and classification (SFODLD-SAC) on COVID-19 tweets. The presented SFODLD-SAC model focuses on the identification of people’s sentiments during the COVID-19 pandemic. To accomplish this, the SFODLD-SAC model initially preprocesses the tweets in distinct ways such as stemming, removal of stopwords, usernames, link punctuations, and numerals. In addition, the TF-IDF model is applied for the useful extraction of features from the preprocessed data. Moreover, the cascaded recurrent neural network (CRNN) model is employed to analyze and classify sentiments. Finally, the SFO algorithm is utilized to optimally adjust the hyperparameters involved in the CRNN model. The design of the SFODLD-SAC technique with the inclusion of an SFO algorithm-based hyperparameter optimizer for analyzing people’s sentiments on COVID-19 shows the novelty of this study. The simulation analysis of the SFODLD-SAC model is performed using a benchmark dataset from the Kaggle repository. Extensive, comparative results report the promising performance of the SFODLD-SAC model over recent state-of-the-art models with maximum accuracy of 99.65%.

DNA microarray technologies enable the analysis of the expression of numerous genes in an individual experiment and become an important approach in the field of medicine and biology for investing genetic function, regulation, and interaction. Microarray images can be investigated well for obtaining the contained genetic data. But is it undesirable to retain the genetic data and avoid the microarray images? Due to considerable attention to DNA microarray and several experiments being performed under distinct conditions, a massive quantity of data gets produced over the globe. In order to store and share the microarray images, effective storage and communication models are needed in a natural way. Vector quantization (VQ) is a commonly utilized tool for compressing images, which mainly aims to produce effective codebooks comprising a collection of codewords. Therefore, this paper presents a manta ray foraging optimization (MRFO) with Linde–Buzo–Gray (LBG) based microarray image compression (MRFOLBG-MIC) technique. The LBG model is commonly utilized to design local optimal codebooks to compress images. The construction of codebooks can be defined as a nondeterministic polynomial time (NP) hard problem and can be resolved by the MRFO algorithm. The codebooks produced from LBG-VQ are optimized using the MRFO algorithm to attain optimum optimal codebooks. When the codebooks are produced by the MRFOLBG-MIC algorithm, Deflate model can be applied to compress the index tables. The design of the MRFO algorithm with LBG and Deflate based index table compression demonstrate the novelty of the work. For demonstrating the enhanced compression efficacy of the MRFOLBG-MIC model, a wide-ranging experimental validation process is performed using a benchmark dataset. The experimental outcomes inferred that the MRFOLBG-MIC model accomplished superior outcomes over the other existing models.
