In the context of the Internet of Things (IoT), Tiny Machine Learning (TinyML) and Big Data, enhanced by Edge Artificial Intelligence, are essential for effectively managing the extensive data produced by numerous connected devices. Our study introduces a set of TinyML algorithms designed and developed to improve Big Data management in large-scale IoT systems. These algorithms, named TinyCleanEDF, EdgeClusterML, CompressEdgeML, CacheEdgeML, and TinyHybridSenseQ, operate together to enhance data processing, storage, and quality control in IoT networks, utilizing the capabilities of Edge AI. In particular, TinyCleanEDF applies federated learning for Edge-based data cleaning and anomaly detection. EdgeClusterML combines reinforcement learning with self-organizing maps for effective data clustering. CompressEdgeML uses neural networks for adaptive data compression. CacheEdgeML employs predictive analytics for smart data caching, and TinyHybridSenseQ concentrates on data quality evaluation and hybrid storage strategies. Our experimental evaluation of the proposed techniques includes executing all the algorithms in various numbers of Raspberry Pi devices ranging from one to ten. The experimental results are promising as we outperform similar methods across various evaluation metrics. Ultimately, we anticipate that the proposed algorithms offer a comprehensive and efficient approach to managing the complexities of IoT, Big Data, and Edge AI.
In this study, we introduce FLIBD, a novel strategy for managing Internet of Things (IoT) Big Data, intricately designed to ensure privacy preservation across extensive system networks. By utilising Federated Learning (FL), Apache Spark, and Federated AI Technology Enabler (FATE), we skilfully investigated the complicated area of IoT data management while simultaneously reinforcing privacy across broad network configurations. Our FLIBD architecture was thoughtfully designed to safeguard data and model privacy through a synergistic integration of distributed model training and secure model consolidation. Notably, we delved into an in-depth examination of adversarial activities within federated learning contexts. The Federated Adversarial Attack for Multi-Task Learning (FAAMT) was thoroughly assessed, unmasking its proficiency in showcasing and exploiting vulnerabilities across various federated learning approaches. Moreover, we offer an incisive evaluation of numerous federated learning defence mechanisms, including Romoa and RFA, in the scope of the FAAMT. Utilising well-defined evaluation metrics and analytical processes, our study demonstrated a resilient framework suitable for managing IoT Big Data across widespread deployments, while concurrently presenting a solid contribution to the progression and discussion surrounding defensive methodologies within the federated learning and IoT areas.
In this study, we analyze the performance of the machine learning operators in Apache Spark MLlib for K-Means, Random Forest Regression, and Word2Vec. We used a multi-node Spark cluster along with collected detailed execution metrics computed from the data of diverse datasets and parameter settings. The data were used to train predictive models that had up to 98% accuracy in forecasting performance. By building actionable predictive models, our research provides a unique treatment for key hyperparameter tuning, scalability, and real-time resource allocation challenges. Specifically, the practical value of traditional models in optimizing Apache Spark MLlib workflows was shown, achieving up to 30% resource savings and a 25% reduction in processing time. These models enable system optimization, reduce the amount of computational overheads, and boost the overall performance of big data applications. Ultimately, this work not only closes significant gaps in predictive performance modeling, but also paves the way for real-time analytics over a distributed environment.
In this work, we present a principled framework for the deployment of Large Language Models (LLMs) in enterprise big data management across digital governance, marketing, and accounting domains. Unlike conventional predictive applications, our approach integrates LLMs as auditable, sector-adaptive components that robustly and directly enhance data curation, lineage, and regulatory compliance. The study contributes (i) a systematic evaluation of seven LLM-enabled functions—including schema mapping, entity resolution, and document extraction—that directly improve data quality and operational governance; (ii) a distributed architecture that deploys Apache Spark orchestration with Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling to achieve quantifiable uncertainty and reproducible audit trails; and (iii) a cross-sector analysis demonstrating robust semantic accuracy, compliance management, and explainable outputs suited to diverse assurance requirements. Empirical evaluations reveal that the proposed architecture persistently attains elevated mapping precision, resilient multimodal feature extraction, and consistent human supervision. These characteristics collectively reinforce the integrity, accountability, and transparency of information ecosystems, particularly within compliance-driven organizational settings.

The mode is a fundamental descriptive statistic in data analysis, signifying the most frequent element within a dataset. The range mode query (RMQ) problem expands upon this concept by preprocessing an array A containing n natural numbers. This allows for the swift determination of the mode within any subarray A[a..b], thus optimizing the computation of the mode for a multitude of range queries. The efficacy of this process bears considerable importance in data analytics and retrieval across diverse platforms, including but not limited to online shopping experiences and financial auditing systems. This study is dedicated to exploring and benchmarking different algorithms and data structures designed to tackle the RMQ problem. The goal is to not only address the theoretical aspects of RMQ but also to provide practical solutions that can be applied in real-world scenarios, such as the optimization of an online shopping platform’s understanding of customer preferences, enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of data retrieval in large datasets.
