Optimization-enabled deep learning model for disease detection in IoT platform

ABSTRACT

Nowadays, Internet of things (IoT) and IoT platforms are extensively utilized in several healthcare applications. The IoT devices produce a huge amount of data in healthcare field that can be inspected on an IoT platform. In this paper, a novel algorithm, named artificial flora optimization-based chameleon swarm algorithm (AFO-based CSA), is developed for optimal path finding. Here, data are collected by the sensors and transmitted to the base station (BS) using the proposed AFO-based CSA, which is derived by integrating artificial flora optimization (AFO) in chameleon swarm algorithm (CSA). This integration refers to the AFO-based CSA model enhancing the strengths and features of both AFO and CSA for optimal routing of medical data in IoT. Moreover, the proposed AFO-based CSA algorithm considers factors such as energy, delay, and distance for the effectual routing of data. At BS, prediction is conducted, followed by stages, like pre-processing, feature dimension reduction, adopting Pearson’s correlation, and disease detection, done by recurrent neural network, which is trained by the proposed AFO-based CSA. Experimental result exhibited that the performance of the proposed AFO-based CSA is superior to competitive approaches based on the energy consumption (0.538 J), accuracy (0.950), sensitivity (0.965), and specificity (0.937).
