Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are wireless networks of automotive nodes. Among the strategies used in VANETs to increase network connectivity are broadcast scheduling, data aggregation, and vehicular node clustering. In the context of extremely high node mobility and ambiguous vehicle distribution (on the road), VANETs degrade in flexibility and quick topology, facing significant issues such as network physical layout construction and unstable connections. These challenges make it difficult for vehicle communication to be robust, reliable, and scalable, especially in urban traffic networks. Numerous research investigations have revealed a nearly optimal solution to various VANET difficulties through the application of techniques derived from nature and evolution. On the other hand, as key productivity sectors continue to demand more energy, sustainable and efficient ways of using non-renewable resources continue to be developed. With the help of information and communication technologies (ICT), parameter tuning approaches can reduce accident rates, improve mobility, and mitigate environmental impacts. In this article, we explore evolutionary algorithms to mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), as well as vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). A discussion of three major categories of optimization is provided throughout the paper. There are several significant research works presented regarding parameter tuning in cluster formation, routing, and scheduling of broadcasts. Toward the end of the review, key challenges in VANET and MANET research are identified.

Introduction: The identification and monitoring of benign moles and skin cancers leads to a challenging task because of the usual standard significant skin patches. Actually, the skin lesions vary very little in their look and only limited amount of information is available. There are seven fundamental types of skin cancer like Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC), Melanoma and Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) whereas Melanoma is the highly risky which has low survival rate. Objective: This work classifies skin lesions with the help of Convolution Neural Network and the images are trained end-to-end. A dataset comprised of 10000 clinical images were trained using Convolution Neural Network (CNN). Materials and Methods: The skin cancer identification process is generally separated into two basic components, image pre-processing which includes classification of images and removing the duplicate images and sharpening, which resizes the skin image. This work discusses a methodology to segment the high-level skin lesion and identification of malignancy more accurately with the help of deep learning: 1) Construction of a neural network, which detects the edge of a huge lesion accurately; 2) Designing model that can run on mobile phones. The model designed a transfer learning which is based deep on neural network and the fine turning that supports to attain high prediction accuracy. Results: The dataset comprises of a total of 10,000 images stored in two folders. The information about the data is stored in a data frame. Total 10000 dermoscopic images contains 374 melanoma images, 254 seborrheic keratosis images and 1372 nevus images. Using transfer learning validation loss, Top-2 accuracy and Top-3 accuracy have been calculated. The result has been compared with the different models. Conclusions: The proposed system can categorize healthy skin lesions, eczema, acne, malignant and benign skin lesions. The proposed work investigates the attributes acquired by the deep convolutional neural network. The attributes are extracted and the datasets were divided into seven different categories. Based on that categories the data was trained and validated. Based on the calculation the validation loss, top-2 accuracy, top-3 accuracy was calculated.
Over the past few decades, the prevalence of chronic illnesses in humans associated with high blood sugar has dramatically increased. Such a disease is referred to medically as diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus can be categorized into three types, namely types 1, 2, and 3. When beta cells do not secrete enough insulin, type 1 diabetes develops. When beta cells create insulin, but the body is unable to use it, type 2 diabetes results. The last category is called gestational diabetes or type 3. This happens during the trimesters of pregnancy in women. Gestational diabetes, however, disappears automatically after childbirth or may continue to develop into type 2 diabetes. To improve their treatment strategies and facilitate healthcare, an automated information system to diagnose diabetes mellitus is required. In this context, this paper presents a novel system of classification of the three types of diabetes mellitus using a multi-layer neural network no-prop algorithm. The algorithm uses two major phases in the information system: the training phase and the testing phase. In each phase, the relevant attributes are identified using the attribute-selection process, and the neural network is trained individually in a multi-layer manner, starting with normal and type 1 diabetes, then normal and type 2 diabetes, and finally healthy and gestational diabetes. Classification is made more effective by the architecture of the multi-layer neural network. To provide experimental analysis and performances of diabetes diagnoses in terms of sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy, a confusion matrix is developed. The maximum specificity and sensitivity values of 0.95 and 0.97 are attained by this suggested multi-layer neural network. With an accuracy score of 97% for the categorization of diabetes mellitus, this proposed model outperforms other models, demonstrating that it is a workable and efficient approach.
