The advent of Internet-of-Things (IoT) technology has ushered in a new era of unprecedented interconnectivity, by transforming our living space into a dynamic ecosystem. The challenging part of this is the security risk it poses on the network. Due to the vulnerabilities that are usually associated with smart devices, integrating them within the smart home ecosystem presents significant concern for the need of preserving data privacy, network traffic classification, and proper management of trusted devices. Various techniques have been employed in the development of Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) to safeguard the network against the evolving nature of attack deployed by cyber-criminals. This paper presents an Adaptive Hybrid Case-Based Neuro-Fuzzy System (HCBNFS) technique to the development of a robust and efficient Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (IDPS). The HCBNFS technique deploys the CBR as a detection engine to easily detect already known traffic patterns on the network, while the NFIS was deployed as a tuning factor to the reverse phase of the CBR to further investigate unknown traffic to the detection engines case-base. Five network packet features were selected as input variables to the proposed model. These features are the source IP, destination IP, source port, destination port, and network protocol. The model was trained using the CIC-IoT2022 dataset. For this study, the CIC-IoT2002 and a synthetic dataset were used for both testing and evaluating the performance of the system. The experimental results of the system using the CIC-IoT2022 dataset achieved 99% accuracy rate in intrusion detection, and recorded 99.5% for precision, recall, and F1-Score. The empirical evaluation of the proposed model validates its effectiveness and contributes towards the development of a more robust intrusion detection and prevention system. By enhancing data confidentiality, privacy, and security, the model represents a significant step forward in the safeguarding IoT-based smart home network against cyber-criminals.

The adoption of blockchains to effectively manage medical services is fast becoming popular for professional use and in patient-centered applications. Electronic medical records are highly sensitive with user-privacy data online with clinical services that relate to patients’ diagnosis and treatments. The features of these medical records necessitate their availability, accessibility, agility, confidentiality and security. These have been demystified with the birth of the blockchain technology that seeks to proffer platforms and application services devoted to dependability and reliability amongst other features. Thus, we propose a blockchain health information framework for healthcare facilities. Our ensemble yields a permissioned blockchain using a hyper-fabric ledger. Using this state of technology on a peer-to-peer blockchain with various actors to include patient, practitioners and other users playing the roles of the creation, retrieval and storage of medical data for a patient to aid interoperability, our ensemble produce a query response time of 0.56 secs and https response time of 0.42 secs for 2500-users, and 0.78 secs and 0.63 secs respectively for 7500-users.

Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) are powerful machine learning models that can be deployed on mobile devices. However, VAEs are often deployed on resource-constrained mobile platforms, resulting in a high computational overhead. In this study, we present a novel framework, called the Miniaturizing Variations Auto Encoder (mVAE), to overcome the computational constraints associated with VAE deployment on mobile platforms. By leveraging advanced miniaturization techniques and integrating Amortized Stochastic Variational Inference (ASVI), this framework unlocks the full potential of VAE models in the mobile realm. Through extensive experiments and performance analysis, we aim to demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the m VAE framework in enabling the deployment of sophisticated machine learning applications on mobile systems. The findings of this study not only contribute to the advancement of mobile computing but also pave the way for a wide range of practical applications, empowering mobile users with powerful AI capabilities. Overall, this research contributes not only to theoretical foundations but also provides practical insights into implementation, addressing the need for efficient machine learning systems in mobile computing environments.

The research introduces a novel approach, Depth-based Extended Isolation Forest Feature Importance (DEIFFI), to enhance the interpretability of Extended Isolation Forest (EIF) algorithm in anomaly detection (AD). Anomaly detection is critical for identifying rare and significant deviations from norm in data. However, understanding the reasons behind classifying instances as anomalies poses a challenge. DEIFFI addresses this challenge by providing valuable insights, empowering users of EIF-based AD to conduct thorough root cause analysis. A noteworthy feature of DEIFFI is its capacity to improve interpretability without imposing heavy computational burdens. This is crucial for real world applications requiring efficient AD, particularly in situations demanding real-time decision-making. DEIFFI achieves remarkable results with low computational costs, making it an appealing option for practical implementations. With an accuracy of 0.914 and 0.942, precision of 0.607 and 0.64, recall of 0.773 and 0.96, and an F1 score of 0.68 and 0.768 on real and synthetic datasets, respectively. DEIFFI provides interpretable insights alongside competitive performance metrics, solidifying its suitability for real-time decision support. Importantly, DEIFFI contributes to AD by enhancing interpretability and assisting in unsupervised feature selection. This dual capability highlights practical utility of DEIFFI, improving EIF’s capabilities and extending its applicability across diverse AD scenarios.

Decentralized, secure platform that aids in managing loan operations is the loan management system that uses blockchain technology. Through the use of blockchain`s distributed ledger technology, security, immutability, and transparency are guaranteed. The loan lifecycle may be managed with this system in an open and effective manner, from the point of loan application to loan payback. Every stage of the loan application process is documented on the blockchain, resulting in an irreversible and permanent record of all transactions. The loan management system automates a number of loan-related tasks, including loan application, credit evaluation, approval, and disbursal, by using smart contracts. This guarantees more accuracy and transparency, gets rid of the need for middlemen, and shortens processing times.
