The Internet of Things has been instrumental in bringing about several advancements and innovations in the domain of healthcare. Healthcare professionals are essentially life savers when it comes to handling emergency cases such as accidents, heart attacks, etc. Only the patient’s vital parameters generally characterize emergency cases, and the doctors must wait for additional details for a wholesome diagnosis. As a result, the treatment processes and procedures sometimes get hastened and, in turn, put the patients’ lives at risk. It would always be helpful for doctors to be equipped with the medical requirements in advance for deciding the right course of action, thereby increasing the scope and chances of recovery. In this work, Multi-Model IoT (MMIoT) devices are deployed to monitor and collect health data from different body parts simultaneously. The healthcare data comprises signals and imagery captured from the MMIoT devices. Both the U-Net model and LSTM model are used to analyze the data automatically. The data processing is carried out by the server connected to the MMIoT network. All the medical IoT devices experimented with in this work are interconnected using a potential 5G network for optimal data transmission. The output obtained from the U-Net and the LSTM are channelized through a dense layer to classify the health anomalies accurately. It would not only facilitate but also educate medical professionals to handle unseen and typical cases in the future confidently. It can improve the overall quality of treatment and save lives with the best available resources.

With the advancement of technology and time, people have always sought to solve problems in the most efficient and quickest way possible. Since the introduction of the cloud computing environment along with many different sub-substructures such as task schedulers, resource allocators, resource monitors, and others, various algorithms have been proposed to improve the performance of the individual unit or structure used in the cloud environment. The cloud is a vast virtual environment with the capability to solve any task provided by the user. Therefore, new algorithms are introduced with the aim to improve the process and consume less time to evaluate the process. One of the most important sections of cloud computing is that of the task scheduler, which is responsible for scheduling tasks to each of the virtual machines in such a way that the time taken to execute the process is less and the efficiency of the execution is high. Thus, this paper plans to propose an ideal and optimal task scheduling algorithm that is tested and compared with other existing algorithms in terms of efficiency, makespan, and cost parameters, that is, this paper tries to explain and solves the scheduling problem using an improved meta-heuristic algorithm called the Hybrid Weighted Ant Colony Optimization (HWACO) algorithm, which is an advanced form of the already present Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm. The outcomes found by using the proposed HWACO has more benefits, that is, the objective for reaching the convergence in a short period of time was accomplished; thus, the projected model outdid the other orthodox algorithms such as Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), Quantum-Based Avian Navigation Optimizer Algorithm (QANA), Modified-Transfer-Function-Based Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (MTF-BPSO), MIN-MIN Algorithm (MM), and First-Come-First-Serve (FCFS), making the proposed algorithm an optimal task scheduling algorithm.

Internet of Health Things plays a vital role in day-to-day life by providing electronic healthcare services and has the capacity to increase the quality of patient care. Internet of Health Things (IoHT) devices and applications have been growing rapidly in recent years, becoming extensively vulnerable to cyber-attacks since the devices are small and heterogeneous. In addition, it is doubly significant when IoHT involves devices used in healthcare domain. Consequently, it is essential to develop a resilient cyber-attack detection system in the Internet of Health Things environment for mitigating the security risks and preventing Internet of Health Things devices from becoming exposed to cyber-attacks. Artificial intelligence plays a primary role in anomaly detection. In this paper, a deep neural network-based cyber-attack detection system is built by employing artificial intelligence on latest ECU-IoHT dataset to uncover cyber-attacks in Internet of Health Things environment. The proposed deep neural network system achieves average higher performance accuracy of 99.85%, an average area under receiver operator characteristic curve 0.99 and the false positive rate is 0.01. It is evident from the experimental result that the proposed system attains higher detection rate than the existing methods.

In today’s digital world, and in light of the growing pandemic, many yoga instructors opt to teach online. However, even after learning or being trained by the best sources available, such as videos, blogs, journals, or essays, there is no live tracking available to the user to see if he or she is holding poses appropriately, which can lead to body posture issues and health issues later in life. Existing technology can assist in this regard; however, beginner-level yoga practitioners have no means of knowing whether their position is good or poor without the instructor’s help. As a result, the automatic assessment of yoga postures is proposed for yoga posture recognition, which can alert practitioners by using the Y_PN-MSSD model, in which Pose-Net and Mobile-Net SSD (together named as TFlite Movenet) play a major role. The Pose-Net layer takes care of the feature point detection, while the mobile-net SSD layer performs human detection in each frame. The model is categorized into three stages. Initially, there is the data collection/preparation stage, where the yoga postures are captured from four users as well as an open-source dataset with seven yoga poses. Then, by using these collected data, the model undergoes training where the feature extraction takes place by connecting key points of the human body. Finally, the yoga posture is recognized and the model assists the user through yoga poses by live-tracking them, as well as correcting them on the fly with 99.88% accuracy. Comparatively, this model outperforms the performance of the Pose-Net CNN model. As a result, the model can be used as a starting point for creating a system that will help humans practice yoga with the help of a clever, inexpensive, and impressive virtual yoga trainer.
