Recently, deep learning and the Internet of Things (IoT) have been widely used in the healthcare monitoring system for decision making. Disease prediction is one of the emerging applications in current practices. In the method described in this paper, lung cancer prediction is implemented using deep learning and IoT, which is a challenging task in computer-aided diagnosis (CAD). Because lung cancer is a dangerous medical disease that must be identified at a higher detection rate, disease-related information is obtained from IoT medical devices and transmitted to the server. The medical data are then processed and classified into two categories, benign and malignant, using a multi-layer CNN (ML-CNN) model. In addition, a particle swarm optimization method is used to improve the learning ability (loss and accuracy). This step uses medical data (CT scan and sensor information) based on the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). For this purpose, sensor information and image information from IoMT devices and sensors are gathered, and then classification actions are taken. The performance of the proposed technique is compared with well-known existing methods, such as the Support Vector Machine (SVM), probabilistic neural network (PNN), and conventional CNN, in terms of accuracy, precision, sensitivity, specificity, F-score, and computation time. For this purpose, two lung datasets were tested to evaluate the performance: Lung Image Database Consortium (LIDC) and Linear Imaging and Self-Scanning Sensor (LISS) datasets. Compared to alternative methods, the trial outcomes showed that the suggested technique has the potential to help the radiologist make an accurate and efficient early lung cancer diagnosis. The performance of the proposed ML-CNN was analyzed using Python, where the accuracy (2.5–10.5%) was high when compared to the number of instances, precision (2.3–9.5%) was high when compared to the number of instances, sensitivity (2.4–12.5%) was high when compared to several instances, the F-score (2–30%) was high when compared to the number of cases, the error rate (0.7–11.5%) was low compared to the number of cases, and the computation time (170 ms to 400 ms) was low compared to how many cases were computed for the proposed work, including previous known methods. The proposed ML-CNN architecture shows that this technique outperforms previous works.

The Internet of Things (IoT) has been influential in predicting major diseases in current practice. The deep learning (DL) technique is vital in monitoring and controlling the functioning of the healthcare system and ensuring an effective decision-making process. In this study, we aimed to develop a framework implementing the IoT and DL to identify lung cancer. The accurate and efficient prediction of disease is a challenging task. The proposed model deploys a DL process with a multi-layered non-local Bayes (NL Bayes) model to manage the process of early diagnosis. The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) could be useful in determining factors that could enable the effective sorting of quality values through the use of sensors and image processing techniques. We studied the proposed model by analyzing its results with regard to specific attributes such as accuracy, quality, and system process efficiency. In this study, we aimed to overcome problems in the existing process through the practical results of a computational comparison process. The proposed model provided a low error rate (2%, 5%) and an increase in the number of instance values. The experimental results led us to conclude that the proposed model can make predictions based on images with high sensitivity and better precision values compared to other specific results. The proposed model achieved the expected accuracy (81%, 95%), the expected specificity (80%, 98%), and the expected sensitivity (80%, 99%). This model is adequate for real-time health monitoring systems in the prediction of lung cancer and can enable effective decision-making with the use of DL techniques.

The research work on optimization has witnessed significant growth in the past few years, particularly within multi- and single-objective optimization algorithm areas. This study provides a comprehensive overview and critical evaluation of a wide range of optimization algorithms from conventional methods to innovative metaheuristic techniques. The methods used for analysis include bibliometric analysis, keyword analysis, and content analysis, focusing on studies from the period 2000–2023. Databases such as IEEE Xplore, SpringerLink, and ScienceDirect were extensively utilized. Our analysis reveals that while traditional algorithms like evolutionary optimization (EO) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) remain popular, newer methods like the fitness-dependent optimizer (FDO) and learner performance-based behavior (LPBB) are gaining attraction due to their adaptability and efficiency. The main conclusion emphasizes the importance of algorithmic diversity, benchmarking standards, and performance evaluation metrics, highlighting future research paths including the exploration of hybrid algorithms, use of domain-specific knowledge, and addressing scalability issues in multi-objective optimization.

Artificial neural networks play a crucial role in machine learning and there is a need to improve their performance. This paper presents FOXANN, a novel classification model that combines the recently developed Fox optimizer with ANN to solve ML problems. Fox optimizer replaces the backpropagation algorithm in ANN; optimizes synaptic weights; and achieves high classification accuracy with a minimum loss, improved model generalization, and interpretability. The performance of FOXANN is evaluated on three standard datasets: Iris Flower, Breast Cancer Wisconsin, and Wine. The results presented in this paper are derived from 100 epochs using 10-fold cross-validation, ensuring that all dataset samples are involved in both the training and validation stages. Moreover, the results show that FOXANN outperforms traditional ANN and logistic regression methods as well as other models proposed in the literature such as ABC-ANN, ABC-MNN, CROANN, and PSO-DNN, achieving a higher accuracy of 0.9969 and a lower validation loss of 0.0028. These results demonstrate that FOXANN is more effective than traditional methods and other proposed models across standard datasets. Thus, FOXANN effectively addresses the challenges in ML algorithms and improves classification performance.

This paper presents the Multi-Objective Ant Nesting Algorithm (MOANA), a novel extension of the Ant Nesting Algorithm (ANA), specifically designed to address multi-objective optimization problems (MOPs). MOANA incorporates adaptive mechanisms, such as deposition weight parameters, to balance exploration and exploitation, while a polynomial mutation strategy ensures diverse and high-quality solutions. The algorithm is evaluated on standard benchmark datasets, including ZDT functions and the IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC) 2019 multi-modal benchmarks. Comparative analysis against state-of-the-art algorithms like MOPSO, MOFDO, MODA, and NSGA-III demonstrates MOANA's superior performance in terms of convergence speed and Pareto front coverage. Furthermore, MOANA's applicability to real-world engineering optimization, such as welded beam design, showcases its ability to generate a broad range of optimal solutions, making it a practical tool for decision-makers. MOANA addresses key limitations of traditional evolutionary algorithms by improving scalability and diversity in multi-objective scenarios, positioning it as a robust solution for complex optimization tasks.

Fake review detection, often known as spam review detection, is a crucial aspect of natural language processing. It involves extracting valuable information from text documents obtained from various sources. Various methodologies, such as simple rule-based approaches, lexicon-based methods, and advanced machine learning algorithms, have been extensively employed with diverse classifiers to provide accurate detection of fake reviews. Nevertheless, review classification based on lexicons continues to face challenges in achieving high accuracies, mostly because of the need for domain-specific comprehensive dictionaries. Furthermore, machine learning-driven review detection also addresses the limitations in accuracy caused by the uncertainty of features in social data. In order To address the problem of accuracy, one effective approach is to carefully choose the most optimal set of features and minimize the number of features used. The Objective of the research paper is to select a small subset of features out of the thousands of features for accurate classification of spam review detection. Therefore, a good feature selection method is needed in order to speed up the processing rate and predictive accuracy. This paper, Harris Hawks Optimization (HHO), is utilized for feature selection in sentiment analysis tasks. The performance of the selected feature subsets was evaluated using SVM, X-GBoost, ETC classifiers. Experimental results on tweet reviews for the airline dataset demonstrated superior sentiment classification capabilities, achieving an accuracy of 0.9435% with SVM and 0.9607%, 0.9635% for X-Boost, ETC, respectively.
