| 2026 | Reinforcement Learning for Dynamic Optimization of Lane Change Intention Recognition for Transportation NetworksabstractAdvance driver assistance systems (ADAS) swiftly and effectively detect oncoming cars’ lanes-changing intentions in intelligent transportation, supporting decision support and safety. Current techniques fail to account for vehicle interactions and trajectory data temporal dependencies; hence this research proposes a multi-model fusion-based lane-changing intention recognition framework for intelligent transportation. Using actual vehicle trajectory data from a dataset, the suggested model is verified and contrasted with several well used baseline models. According to the experimental findings, the lane change intention detection technique can greatly increase prediction accuracy by fusing attention processes, reinforcement learning-based CRF, and vehicle interaction data. The system’s main components are input processing and lane-changing intention recognition. Vehicle trajectory data is cleaned, labelled, sliced, and one-hot encoded during input processing BiLSTM-F model detects driver lane-change intent, enhanced by incorporating attention mechanism to the Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) network, the model may give changing weights to input processing section output. This lets the model focus on lane-changing intention-affecting factors. Finally, a Reinforcement Learning-based Conditional Random Field (CRF) efficiently determines the globally optimal lane-changing intention. This field fully represents input data temporal interdependence. The model was trained and tested on the public NGSIM dataset. Validation results show it can achieve up to 97.19% accuracy and predict a vehicle’s lane change intention with 94.16% accuracy, two seconds before the actual maneuver occurs. The suggested model outperforms baseline lane-changing intention recognition models in terms of accuracy, loss performance, F1 score, and stability.

| 2025 | Federated-Learning-Based Smart Healthcare Framework for Yellow Fever DetectionabstractDeep Learning (DL) has proven to be an efficient methodology for yellow fever determination, yet privacy concerns from restricted data sharing by medical institutions compromise its performance. While existing literature has explored Federated Learning (FL) for privacy-preserving model training, this research introduces a novel FL-inspired methodology that integrates multimodal data sources of audio and visual data to identify yellow fever symptoms. This approach employs the Dynamic Integration Approach to estimate health severity, marking a significant advancement over traditional methods that typically rely on single data modalities. Comparative assessments with state-of-the-art methods demonstrate superior performance, with statistical measures showing Accuracy (98.57%), Precision (99.85%), F-Score (96.53%), and Recall (94.72%). Additionally, improved results in delay latency (11.80s) and stability (71%) highlight the approach’s efficiency. This work has broader implications for healthcare and public health systems, offering a scalable and privacy-preserving solution for epidemic monitoring. Tariq Ahamed Ahanger |

| 2025 | IoT-Inspired Healthcare-Oriented Water Quality AnalysisabstractAnalyzing groundwater is crucial for minimizing contamination and preventing health risks. Real-time water quality assessment requires evaluating multiple parameters, yet many existing methods rely on time-invariant models, which can lead to inaccuracies and inconsistencies in impurity detection. To address this, the current research proposes a hybrid system based on a Two-Actor Game-Theoretic decision model for time-sensitive water quality evaluation. A novel metric,Water Quality Measure (WQM), is introduced to quantify risk and vulnerability to human health. The framework was validated using real-time data acquired from a remote location. Experimental results demonstrate improved efficiency with Sensitivity of 94.75%, Specificity of 95.45%, and Precision of 95.56%, indicating strong predictive reliability. Additionally, it recorded low computational latency (15.62s), and high Reliability (90.18%) and Stability (75%), supporting its effectiveness for accurate and real-time water quality forecasting.

| 2025 | Blockchain-Based Secure Trust Management Scheme for Internet of Vehicles Over Cyber-Physical SystemabstractThe importance of vehicular networking technology has grown significantly with advancements in autonomous driving and intelligent transportation systems over cyber-physical systems (CPS). Due to its open-access environment, vehicular networking presents significant security problems in assuring message reliability and vehicle trustworthiness. To overcome this problem, this study proposes a framework for managing trust in cars for safe transportation in cyber-physical systems (T-CPS). This framework builds on existing blockchain-based trust management systems to address issues with scalability and ineffective consensus approaches. The framework is divided into three modules: message trust evaluation, vehicle trust update, and trust block generation and agreement. The message trust evaluation module evaluates message reliability by taking into account both direct and indirect vehicle trust over T-CPS. This assessment leads to the identification of misleading messages originating from malicious nodes. Within the T-CPS trust update module, the aim is to mitigate any malicious actions vehicles perform successfully by adjusting the level of trust assigned to each vehicle in T-CPS, which is determined by evaluating the messages received and considering the vehicle’s past behaviour. Ultimately, the effectiveness of the framework is confirmed through simulation studies. The experimental results show clear enhancements in scalability and resilience using the proposed algorithm.

| 2023 | Game-Theoretic Decision Making for Intelligent Power Consumption AnalysisabstractWith smart electricity distribution and dependable electric appliances, the revolutionary impact of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology has considerably improved the service-oriented features of the power grid industry. In the current study, a methodology for IoT-based electricity distribution for intelligent homes is described to detect power consumption efficiently. Although effective power resource allocation remains a primary issue for every power grid house, poor energy distribution has significantly influenced everyday living. The current study focuses on the effective distribution of electricity resources by power grid houses over a spatial–temporal basis. Specifically, the spatial–temporal consumption index is calculated for each home in a geographical region based on electricity usage, which enables the effective allocation of power resources. Additionally, an automated game-theoretic decision-making model is proposed to assist power grid house managers in optimizing the spatial–temporal distribution of electricity resources. For validation purposes, a simulated environment is used to monitor four smart houses for 60 days. A comparative analysis with state-of-the-art data assessment methodologies shows that the presented approach is significantly better in terms of statistical parameters of temporal delay (113.24 s), classification efficacy [precision (93.23%), sensitivity (92.34%), and specificity (92.34%)], decision-making efficiency, reliability (88.45%), and stability (72%).
