| 2023 | Internet of things based smart application for rice leaf disease classification using optimization integrated deep maxout networkabstractSummary Rice is the major crop in India. Early prevention and timely identification of plant leaf diseases are important for increasing production. Hence, an effective sunflower earthworm algorithm and student psychology based optimization (SEWA‐SPBO) based deep maxout network is developed to classify different types of diseases in rice plant leaf. The SEWA is the combination of sunflower optimization (SFO) and earthworm algorithm (EWA). Initially, the network nodes simulated in the environment capture the plant leaf images and are routed to the sink node for disease classification. After receiving the plant images at the sink node, the image is preprocessed using a Gaussian filter. Next to preprocessing, segmentation using the black hole entropic fuzzy clustering (BHEFC) mechanism is performed. Then, data augmentation is applied to segmented image results and disease classification is done by a deep maxout network. The training of the deep maxout network is done using the proposed SEWA‐SPBO algorithm. The proposed method detects the leaf disease more accurately with limited time and shows higher accuracy. Moreover, the proposed method attains higher performance with metrics, like accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity as 93.626%, 94.626%, and 90.431%, respectively.

| 2023 | AACO: Aquila Anti-Coronavirus Optimization-Based Deep LSTM Network for Road Accident and Severity DetectionabstractGlobally, traffic accidents are of main concern because of more death rates and economic losses every year. Thus, road accident severity is the most important issue of concern, mainly in the undeveloped countries. Generally, traffic accidents result in severe human fatalities and large economic losses in real-world circumstances. Moreover, appropriate, precise prediction of traffic accidents has a high probability with regard to safeguarding public security as well as decreasing economic losses. Hence, the conventional accident prediction techniques are usually devised with statistical evaluations, which identify and evaluate the fundamental relationships among human variability, environmental aspects, traffic accidents and road geometry. However, the conventional approaches have major restrictions based on the assumptions regarding function kind and data distribution. In this paper, Aquila Anti-Coronavirus Optimization-based Deep Long Short-Term Memory (AACO-based Deep LSTM) is developed for road accident severity detection. Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient and Deep Recurrent Neural Network (DRNN) are utilized for the feature fusion process. Data augmentation method is carried out to improve the detection performance. Deep LSTM detects the road accident and its severity, where Deep LSTM is trained by the designed AACO algorithm for better performance. The developed AACO-based Deep LSTM model outperformed other existing methods with the Mean Square Error (MSE), Root-Mean-Square Error (RMSE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of 0.0145, 0.1204 and 0.075%, respectively.

| 2023 | Deep Fuzzy Clustering and Deep Residual Network for Prediction of Web Pages from Weblog Data with Fractional Order Based RankingabstractWeb page recommendation system has attracted more attention in recent decades. The web page recommendation has various characteristics than the classical recommenders. It is the process of predicting the request of the next web page that users are significantly interested while searching the web. It helps the users to find relevant pages in the field of web mining. In particular, web user may spend more time to identify expected information. To understand behavior of users and to visit the page based on their interest at a specific time, an effective web page recommendation method is developed by developed Multi-Verse Sailfish Optimization (MVSFO)-based Deep Residual network. Accordingly, proposed MVSFO is derived by the integration of Multi-Verse Optimizer (MVO) and Sailfish Optimizer (SFO), respectively. Here, the process of recommendation is carried out using weblog data and the web page image. The sequential patterns are acquired from weblog data, and the patterns are grouped with Deep fuzzy clustering based on cosine similarity. The matching process among test pattern and sequential patterns are made using Canberra distance. Here, the recommended web pages obtained from the weblog data and pages obtained from web pages image using the Deep Residual network are enable to generate the output using fractional order-based ranking. The developed scheme attained more effectiveness by the measures, such as F-measure, precision, and recall as 85.30%, 86.59%, and 86.04%, respectively for MSNBC dataset. K.

| 2022 | Adaptive partitioning-based copy-move image forgery detection using optimal enabled deep neuro-fuzzy networkabstractAbstract The emergence of photo editing applications, like Adobe Photoshop, has manipulated the operation of digital images into a simple task. However, these manipulations of images misrepresent the content of the original image for misleading the public. Various copy move forgery detection techniques are developed, but these show less robustness on the image with noise and blurring. This article develops an optimization‐driven deep learning technique for image forgery detection. The purpose is to develop a copy‐move image forgery detection technique using a deep neuro‐fuzzy network and a newly developed optimization algorithm. Here, adaptive partitioning is adapted using a rectangular search for splitting the image into different parts. In addition, the features like local Gabor XOR pattern and Texton features are extracted from the partition. Furthermore, the forgery is detected using the deep neuro‐fuzzy network. Finally, the deep neuro‐fuzzy network training is performed using the proposed multi‐verse invasive weed optimization (MVIWO) technique. The proposed MVIWO method will be newly designed by integrating the multi‐verse optimizer and invasive weed optimization technique. Thus, the copy‐move image forgery detection is effectively performed using the proposed MVIWO‐based deep neuro‐fuzzy network. The developed MVIWO‐based deep neuro‐fuzzy network offers superior performance with the highest specificity of 93.54%, highest accuracy of 94.01%, and highest sensitivity of 97.75%. M.

| 2022 | Ransomware recognition in blockchain network using water moth flame optimization-aware DRNNabstractAbstract The emergence of networking systems and quick deployment of applications cause huge increase in cybercrimes which involves various applications like phishing, hacking, and malware propagation. However, the Ransomware techniques utilize certain device which may lead to undesirable properties which might shrink the paying‐victim pool. This paper devises a new method, namely Water Moth Flame optimization (WMFO) and deep recurrent neural network (Deep RNN) for determining Ransomware. Here, Deep RNN training is done with WMFO, and is developed by combining Moth Flame optimization (MFO) and Water wave optimization (WWO). Moreover, features are mined with opcodes and by finding term frequency‐inverse document frequency (TF‐IDF) amongst individual features. Moreover, Probabilistic Principal Component Analysis (PPCA) is adapted to choose significant features. These features are adapted in Deep RNN for classification, wherein the proposed WMFO is employed to produce optimum weights. The WMFO offered enhanced performance with elevated accuracy of 95.025%, sensitivity of 95%, and specificity of 96%. G. NaliniPriya, Balajee Maram, Chittibabu Priya, Cristin Rajan |

| 2022 | Gray wolf-student psychology optimization-based deep long short term memory for survival prediction using cancer gene-expression dataabstractSummary Oncology treatment accuracy relies on providing information from a variety of sources to have a accurate assessment of a patient's health status and prediction. With the advancement in medical field, accurate prediction allows prescription of more effective treatments and customized medical services to individual patient's. Next generation sequencing has put pressure on cancer researchers in recent years by giving doctors access to vast amounts of data from RNA‐seq high‐throughput fields. Effectual survival prediction can save patient's life from threatening at earlier stage. In addition, traditional techniques of gene expression datasets failed to trade off balance among huge genes and low number of samples available, thereby resulting low level of survival prediction rate. Therefore, this research proposes an efficient model for survival prediction of cancer patients using proposed gray wolf‐student psychology optimization‐based deep long short term memory (GW‐SPO based deep LSTM). The proposed GW‐SPO is derived by incorporating gray wolf optimization (GWO) and student psychology based optimization (SPBO). However, survival prediction is performed effectively using deep LSTM and network classifier is trained using proposed GW‐SPO. Nevertheless, proposed GW‐SPO has achieved superior results with minimum RMSE of 0.325, and minimum prediction error of 0.110 for analysis with cluster size of 5.

| 2022 | Deep maxout network for lung cancer detection using optimization algorithm in smart Internet of ThingsabstractSummary The Internet of Things (IoT) has appreciably influenced the technology world in the context of interconnectivity, interoperability, and connectivity using smart objects, connected sensors, devices, data, and appliances. The IoT technology has mainly impacted the global economy, and it extends from industry to different application scenarios, like the healthcare system. This research designed anti‐corona virus‐Henry gas solubility optimization‐based deep maxout network (ACV‐HGSO based deep maxout network) for lung cancer detection with medical data in a smart IoT environment. The proposed algorithm ACV‐HGSO is designed by incorporating anti‐corona virus optimization (ACVO) and Henry gas solubility optimization (HGSO). The nodes simulated in the smart IoT framework can transfer the patient medical information to sink through optimal routing in such a way that the best path is selected using a multi‐objective fractional artificial bee colony algorithm with the help of fitness measure. The routing process is deployed for transferring the medical data collected from the nodes to the sink, where detection of disease is done using the proposed method. The noise exists in medical data is removed and processed effectively for increasing the detection performance. The dimension‐reduced features are more probable in reducing the complexity issues. The created approach achieves improved testing accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity as 0.910, 0.914, and 0.912, respectively.

| 2022 | CPRO: Competitive Poor and Rich Optimizer-Enabled Deep Learning Model and Holoentropy Weighted-Power K-Means Clustering for Brain Tumor Classification Using MRIabstractA brain tumor is a collection of irregular and needless cell development in the brain region, and it is considered a life-threatening disease. Therefore, early level segmentation and brain tumor detection with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is more important to save the patient’s life. Moreover, MRI is more effective in identifying patients with brain tumors since the recognition of this modality is moderately larger than considering other imaging modalities. The classification of brain tumors is the most important, difficult task in medical imaging systems because of size, appearance and shape variations. In this paper, Competitive Poor and Rich Optimization (CPRO)-based Deep Quantum Neural Network (Deep QNN) is proposed for brain tumor classification. Additionally, the pre-processing process assists in eradicating noises and uses image intensity to eliminate the artifacts. The significant features are extracted from pre-processed image to perform a productive classification process. The Deep QNN classifier is employed for classifying the brain tumor regions. Besides, the Deep QNN classifier is trained by the developed CPRO approach, which is newly designed by integrating Poor and Rich Optimization (PRO) and Competitive Swarm Optimizer (CSO). The developed brain tumor detection model outperformed other existing models with accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of 94.44%, 97.60% and 93.78%. V.

| 2022 | DeepJoint Segmentation-based Lung Segmentation and Hybrid Optimization-Enabled Deep Learning for Lung Nodule ClassificationabstractLung cancer is an aggressive disease among all cancer-based diseases, because of causing huge mortality in humans. Thus, earlier discovery is a basic task for diagnosing lung cancer and it helps increase the survival rate. Computed tomography (CT) is a powerful imaging technique used to discover lung cancer. However, it is time-consuming for examining each CT image. This paper develops an optimized deep model for classifying the lung nodules. Here, the pre-processing is done using Region of Interest (ROI) extraction and adaptive Wiener filter. The segmentation is done using the DeepJoint model wherein distance is computed with a congruence coefficient for extracting the segments. The nodule identification is done by a grid-based scheme. The features such as Global Binary Pattern (GBP), Texton features, statistical features, perimeter and area, barycenter difference, number of slices, short axis and long axis and volume are considered. The lung nodule classification is done to classify part solid, solid nodules and ground-glass opacity (GGO) using Deep Residual Network (DRN), which is trained by the proposed Shuffled Shepard Sine–Cosine Algorithm (SSSCA). The developed SSSCA is generated by the integration of the Sine–Cosine Algorithm (SCA) and Shuffled Shepard Optimization Algorithm (SSOA). The proposed SSSCA-based DRN outperformed with the highest testing accuracy of 92.5%, sensitivity of 93.2%, specificity of 83.7% and [Formula: see text]-score of 81.5%. P. Chinniah, Balajee Maram, P.

| 2022 | MVPO Predictor: Deep Learning-Based Tumor Classification and Survival Prediction of Brain Tumor Patients with MRI Using Multi-Verse Political OptimizerabstractBrain tumor is a severe nervous disorder that causes damage to health and often leads to death. Therefore, it is significant to classify the brain tumor at an early stage as it increases the survival rate of patients. One of the commonly employed imaging modalities for brain tumor classification is Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). However, it is relatively complex to perform the brain tumor classification process due to the variations of type, shape, size and tumor location. To overcome such issues and classify the tumor more accurately, a deep learning classifier named Deep Maxout network is developed to classify the tumor into different grades. Based on the classification result, the features connected with the tumor grades are effectively acquired to make the survival prediction process. Deep learning is an effective and robust classifier model employed to perform the tumor classification or detection process with the MRI modality. Here, the survival prediction of tumor patients is carried out by the Deep Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) classifier. Accordingly, the proposed method achieved higher performance using accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and prediction error with the values of 0.9434, 0.9324, 0.9202 and 0.0579. R. Rajeswari, G.
