Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are a cornerstone of modern Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure, enabling seamless data collection and communication for many IoT applications. However, the deployment of WSNs in remote or inaccessible locations poses significant challenges in terms of energy efficiency and secure communication. Sensor nodes, with their limited battery capacities, require innovative strategies to minimize energy consumption while maintaining robust network performance. Additionally, ensuring secure data transmission is critical for safeguarding the integrity and confidentiality of IoT systems. Despite various advancements, existing methods often fail to strike an optimal balance between energy efficiency and quality of service (QoS), either depleting limited energy resources or compromising network performance. This paper introduces a novel framework that integrates double reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) into WSNs to enhance energy efficiency while ensuring secure communication. To jointly optimize both RIS phase shift matrices, we employ a fuzzy deep reinforcement learning (FDRL) framework that integrates reinforcement learning (RL) with fuzzy logic and long short-term memory (LSTM)-based architecture. The RL component learns optimal actions by iteratively interacting with the environment and updating Q-values based on a reward function that prioritizes both energy efficiency and secure communication. The LSTM captures temporal dependencies in the system state, allowing the model to make more informed predictions about future network conditions, while the fuzzy logic layer manages uncertainties by using optimized membership functions and rule-based inference. To explore the search space efficiently and identify optimal parameter configurations, we use the advantage of the multi-objective artificial bee colony (MOABC) algorithm as an optimization strategy to fine-tune the hyperparameters of the FDRL framework while simultaneously optimizing the membership functions of the fuzzy logic system to improve decision-making accuracy under uncertain conditions. The MOABC algorithm enhances convergence speed and ensures the adaptability of the proposed framework in dynamically changing environments. This framework dynamically adjusts the RIS phase shift matrices, ensuring robust adaptability under varying environmental conditions and maximizing energy efficiency and secure data throughput. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed FDRL-based double RIS framework under different system configurations, demonstrating significant improvements in energy efficiency and secrecy rate compared to existing methods. Specifically, quantitative analysis demonstrates that the FDRL framework improves energy efficiency by 35.4%, the secrecy rate by 29.7%, and RSMA by 27.5%, compared to the second-best approach. Additionally, the model achieves an R² score improvement of 12.3%, confirming its superior predictive accuracy.

Elevated levels of fine particulate matter (PM_2.5) in the atmosphere present substantial risks to human health and welfare. The accurate assessment of PM_2.5 concentrations plays a pivotal role in facilitating prompt responses by pertinent regulatory bodies to mitigate air pollution. Additionally, it furnishes indispensable information for epidemiological studies concentrating on PM_2.5 exposure. In recent years, predictive models based on deep learning (DL) have offered promise in improving the accuracy and efficiency of air quality forecasts when compared to other approaches. Long short-term memory (LSTM) networks have proven to be effective in time series forecasting tasks, including air pollution prediction. However, optimizing LSTM models for enhanced accuracy and efficiency remains an ongoing research area. In this paper, we propose a novel approach that integrates the novel binary chimp optimization algorithm (BChOA) with LSTM networks to optimize air pollution prediction models. The proposed BChOA, inspired by the social behavior of chimpanzees, provides a powerful optimization technique to fine-tune the LSTM architecture and optimize its parameters. The evaluation of the results is performed using cross-validation methods such as the coefficient of determination ($R^2$), accuracy, the root mean square error (RMSE), and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Additionally, the performance of the BChOA-LSTM model is compared against eight DL architectures. Experimental evaluations using real-world air pollution data demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed BChOA-based LSTM model compared to traditional LSTM models and other optimization algorithms. The BChOA-LSTM model achieved the highest accuracy of 96.41% on the validation datasets, making it the most successful approach. The results show that the BChOA-LSTM architecture performs better than the other architectures in terms of the $R^2$ convergence curve, RMSE, and accuracy.
