Histopathological images are commonly used imaging modalities for breast cancer. As manual analysis of histopathological images is difficult, automated tools utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning (DL) methods should be modelled. The recent advancements in DL approaches will be helpful in establishing maximal image classification performance in numerous application zones. This study develops an arithmetic optimization algorithm with deep-learning-based histopathological breast cancer classification (AOADL-HBCC) technique for healthcare decision making. The AOADL-HBCC technique employs noise removal based on median filtering (MF) and a contrast enhancement process. In addition, the presented AOADL-HBCC technique applies an AOA with a SqueezeNet model to derive feature vectors. Finally, a deep belief network (DBN) classifier with an Adamax hyperparameter optimizer is applied for the breast cancer classification process. In order to exhibit the enhanced breast cancer classification results of the AOADL-HBCC methodology, this comparative study states that the AOADL-HBCC technique displays better performance than other recent methodologies, with a maximum accuracy of 96.77%.

A cyber-physical system (CPS) can be referred to as a network of cyber and physical components that communicate with each other in a feedback manner. A CPS is essential for daily activities and approves critical infrastructure as it provides the base for innovative smart devices. The recent advances in the field of explainable artificial intelligence have contributed to the development of robust intrusion detection modes for CPS environments. This study develops an Explainable Artificial Intelligence Enabled Intrusion Detection Technique for Secure Cyber-Physical Systems (XAIID-SCPS). The proposed XAIID-SCPS technique mainly concentrates on the detection and classification of intrusions in the CPS platform. In the XAIID-SCPS technique, a Hybrid Enhanced Glowworm Swarm Optimization (HEGSO) algorithm is applied for feature selection purposes. For intrusion detection, the Improved Elman Neural Network (IENN) model was utilized with an Enhanced Fruitfly Optimization (EFFO) algorithm for parameter optimization. Moreover, the XAIID-SCPS technique integrates the XAI approach LIME for better understanding and explainability of the black-box method for accurate classification of intrusions. The simulation values demonstrate the promising performance of the XAIID-SCPS technique over other approaches with maximum accuracy of 98.87%.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), or drones, provided with camera sensors enable improved situational awareness of several emergency responses and disaster management applications, as they can function from remote and complex accessing regions. The UAVs can be utilized for several application areas which can hold sensitive data, which necessitates secure processing using image encryption approaches. At the same time, UAVs can be embedded in the latest technologies and deep learning (DL) models for disaster monitoring areas such as floods, collapsed buildings, or fires for faster mitigation of its impacts on the environment and human population. This study develops an Artificial Intelligence-based Secure Communication and Classification for Drone-Enabled Emergency Monitoring Systems (AISCC-DE2MS). The proposed AISCC-DE2MS technique majorly employs encryption and classification models for emergency disaster monitoring situations. The AISCC-DE2MS model follows a two-stage process: encryption and image classification. At the initial stage, the AISCC-DE2MS model employs an artificial gorilla troops optimizer (AGTO) algorithm with an ECC-Based ElGamal Encryption technique to accomplish security. For emergency situation classification, the AISCC-DE2MS model encompasses a densely connected network (DenseNet) feature extraction, penguin search optimization (PESO) based hyperparameter tuning, and long short-term memory (LSTM)-based classification. The design of the AGTO-based optimal key generation and PESO-based hyperparameter tuning demonstrate the novelty of our work. The simulation analysis of the AISCC-DE2MS model is tested using the AIDER dataset and the results demonstrate the improved performance of the AISCC-DE2MS model in terms of different measures.

Accurate and timely traffic flow prediction not just allows traffic controllers to evade traffic congestion and guarantee standard traffic functioning, it even assists travelers to take advantage of planning ahead of schedule and modifying travel routes promptly. Therefore, short-term traffic flow prediction utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) techniques has received significant attention in smart cities. This manuscript introduces an autonomous short-term traffic flow prediction using optimal hybrid deep belief network (AST2FP-OHDBN) model. The presented AST2FP-OHDBN model majorly focuses on high-precision traffic prediction in the process of making near future prediction of smart city environments. The presented AST2FP-OHDBN model initially normalizes the traffic data using min–max normalization. In addition, the HDBN model is employed for forecasting the traffic flow in the near future, and makes use of DBN with an adaptive learning step approach to enhance the convergence rate. To enhance the predictive accuracy of the DBN model, the pelican optimization algorithm (POA) is exploited as a hyperparameter optimizer, which in turn enhances the overall efficiency of the traffic flow prediction process. For assuring the enhanced predictive outcomes of the AST2FP-OHDBN algorithm, a wide-ranging experimental analysis can be executed. The experimental values reported the promising performance of the AST2FP-OHDBN method over recent state-of-the-art DL models with minimal average mean-square error of 17.19132 and root-mean-square error of 22.6634.

Owing to the development and expansion of energy-aware sensing devices and autonomous and intelligent systems, the Internet of Things (IoT) has gained remarkable growth and found uses in several day-to-day applications. However, IoT devices are highly prone to botnet attacks. To mitigate this threat, a lightweight and anomaly-based detection mechanism that can create profiles for malicious and normal actions on IoT networks could be developed. Additionally, the massive volume of data generated by IoT gadgets could be analyzed by machine learning (ML) methods. Recently, several deep learning (DL)-related mechanisms have been modeled to detect attacks on the IoT.
