<title>Energy-Aware Path Planning by Autonomous Underwater Vehicle in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks for Safer Maritime Transportation</title>

<description>Energy-Aware Path Planning by Autonomous Underwater Vehicle in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks for Safer Maritime Transportation
Acarer, Tayfun
Throughout history, maritime transportation has been preferred for international and intercontinental trade thanks to its lower cost than other transportation ways, which have a risk of ship accidents. To avoid these risks, underwater wireless sensor networks can be used as a robust and safe solution by monitoring maritime environment where energy resources are critical. Energy constraints must be solved to enable continuous data collection and communication for environmental monitoring and surveillance so they can last. Their energy limitations and battery replacement difficulties can be addressed with a path planning approach.This paper considers the energy-aware path planning problem with autonomous underwater vehicles by five commonly used approaches, namely, Ant Colony Optimization-based Approach, Particle Swarm Optimization-based Approach, Teaching Learning-based Optimization-based Approach, Genetic Algorithm-based Approach, Grey Wolf Optimizer-based Approach. Simulations show that the system converges faster and performs better with genetic algorithm than the others. This paper also considers the case where direct traveling paths between some node pairs should be avoided due to several reasons including underwater flows, too narrow places for travel, and other risks like changing temperature and pressure. To tackle this case, we propose a modified genetic algorithm, the Safety-Aware Genetic Algorithm-based Approach, that blocks the direct paths between those nodes. In this scenario, the Safety-Aware Genetic Algorithm-based approach provides just a 3% longer path than the Genetic Algorithm-based approach which is the best approach among all these approaches. This shows that the Safety-Aware Genetic Algorithm-based approach performs very robustly. With our proposed robust and energy-efficient path-planning algorithms, the data gathered by sensors can be collected very quickly with much less energy, which enables the monitoring system to respond faster for ship accidents. It also reduces total energy consumption of sensors by communicating them closely and so extends the network lifetime.

<title>Semi-Supervised Machine Learning Approaches for Thyroid Disease Prediction and its Integration With the Internet of Everything</title>
<link>https://reunir.unir.net/handle/123456789/17202</link>
<description>Semi-Supervised Machine Learning Approaches for Thyroid Disease Prediction and its Integration With the Internet of Everything
Agraz, Melih
Thyroid disorders are critical conditions that considerably affect a person’s general health, and may lead to additional health complications. Notably, these conditions often remain undetected in individuals who show "normal" results on traditional thyroid function tests. To enhance the diagnostic accuracy for thyroid disorders, such as hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, this study leveraged digital health records and explored semisupervised learning methods. We intentionally removed the labels from subjects initially categorized as "normal," incorporating them into our dataset as unlabeled data. The goal was to overcome the limitations of conventional diagnostic techniques, which may fail to detect subtle imbalances in thyroid hormones. In pursuit of this objective, we employed a combination of semi-supervised learning methods, namely FixMatch, Co-training, and self-training, in conjunction with supervised learning algorithms, specifically Naive Bayes and logistic regression. Our findings indicate that the FixMatch algorithm surpassed traditional supervised learning methods in various metrics, including accuracy (0.9054), sensitivity (0.9494), negative predictive value (0.9365), and F1 score (0.9146). Additionally, we propose a framework for integrating these diagnostic tools into the Internet of Everything (IoE) to promote early detection and facilitate improved healthcare outcomes. This research highlights the potential of semi-supervised learning techniques in the diagnosis of thyroid disorders and offers a roadmap for harnessing the IoE in healthcare advancement.

<description>Constructing the Public Opinion Crisis Prediction Model Using CNN and LSTM Techniques Based on Social Network Mining
Yan, Lou; Ren, Zhipeng; Zhang, Yong; Tao, Zhonghui; Zhao, Yizu
This research endeavors to address the persistent dissemination of public opinion within social networks, mitigate the propagation of inappropriate content on these platforms, and enhance the overall service quality of social networks. To achieve these objectives, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) techniques are employed in this research to develop a predictive model for anticipating public opinion crises in social network mining. This model furnishes users with a valuable reference for subsequent decisionmaking processes. The initial phase of this research involves the collection of user behavior data from social networks using IoT technologies, serving as the basis for extensive big data analysis and neural network research. Subsequently, a social network text categorization model is constructed by amalgamating the Convolutional Neural Network-Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) architecture, elucidating the training procedures of deep learning methodologies within CNN and LSTM networks. The effectiveness of this approach is subsequently validated through comparisons with other deep learning techniques. Based on the obtained results and findings, the CNN-LSTM model demonstrates a noteworthy accuracy rate of 92.19% and an exceptionally low loss value of 0.4075. Of particular significance is the classification accuracy of the CNN-LSTM algorithm within social network datasets, which surpasses that of alternative algorithms, including CNN (by 6.31%), LSTM (by 4.43%), RNN (by 3.51%), Transformer (by 40.29%), and Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) (by 4.49%). This underscores the effectiveness of the CNN-LSTM algorithm in the realm of social network text classification.

<description>The Human Motion Behavior Recognition by Deep Learning Approach and the Internet of Things
Li, Hui; Liu, Huayang; Zhao, Wei; Liu, Hao
This paper is dedicated to exploring the practical implementation of deep learning and Internet of Things (IoT) technology within systems designed for recognizing human motion behavior. It places a particular emphasis on evaluating performance in complex environments, aiming to mitigate challenges such as poor robustness and high computational workload encountered in conventional human motion behavior recognition approaches by employing Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). The primary focus is on enhancing the performance of human motion behavior recognition systems for real-world scenarios, optimizing them for real-time accuracy, and enhancing their suitability for practical applications. Specifically, the paper investigates human motion behavior recognition using CNN, where the parameters of the CNN model are fine-tuned to improve recognition performance. The paper commences by delineating the process and methodology employed for human motion recognition, followed by an in-depth exploration of the CNN model's application in recognizing human motion behavior. To acquire data depicting human motion behavior in authentic settings, the Internet of Things (IoT) is utilized for extracting relevant information from the living environment. The dataset chosen for human motion behavior recognition is the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) database. The analysis demonstrates that the network training loss function reaches a minimum value of 0.0001. Leveraging the trained CNN model, the recognition accuracy for human motion behavior achieves peak performance, registering an average accuracy of 94.41%. Notably, the recognition accuracy for static motion behavior generally exceeds that for dynamic motion behavior across different models. The CNN-based human motion behavior recognition method exhibits promising results in both static and dynamic behavior recognition scenarios. Furthermore, the paper advocates for the use of IoT in collecting human motion behavior data in real-world living environments, contributing to the advancement of human motion behavior recognition technology and its application in diverse domains such as intelligent surveillance and health management. The research findings carry significant implications for furthering the development of human motion behavior recognition technology and enhancing its applications in areas such as intelligent surveillance and health management.

<title>Enhancing Tennis Serve Scoring Efficiency: An AI Deep Learning Approach</title>
<link>https://reunir.unir.net/handle/123456789/17174</link>
<description>Enhancing Tennis Serve Scoring Efficiency: An AI Deep Learning Approach
Liu, Jing-Wei
The playing field of a tennis competition is a dynamic and complex formative environment given the following preliminary knowledge: (a) the basic technical, tactical, situational, and special types of shots used by the opponent; (b) the hitting area of the tennis player; (c) the place of service; (d) the ball drop position; and (d) batting efficiency and other related information that may improve the chances of victory. In this study, we propose an AI classification model for tennis serve scores. Using a deep learning algorithm, the model automatically tracks and classifies the serve scores of professional tennis players from video data. We first defined the players’ techniques, volleys, and placements of strokes and serves. Subsequently, we defined the referee's tennis terms and the voice in deciding on a serve score. Finally, we developed a deep learning model to automatically classify the serving position, landing position, and use of tennis techniques. The methodology was applied in the context of 10 matches played by Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. The proposed deep learning algorithm achieved a 98.27% accuracy in the automatic classification of serve scores, revealing that Nadal outscored Federer by 2.1% in terms of serve-scoring efficiency. These results are expected to facilitate the automatic comparison and classification of shots in future studies, enabling coaches to adjust tactics in a timely manner and thereby improve the chances of winning.

<title>Evaluating the Impact of Pumping on Groundwater Level Prediction in the Chuoshui River Alluvial Fan Using Artificial Intelligence Techniques</title>
<link>https://reunir.unir.net/handle/123456789/16569</link>
<description>Evaluating the Impact of Pumping on Groundwater Level Prediction in the Chuoshui River Alluvial Fan Using Artificial Intelligence Techniques
Su, Yu-Sheng; Hu, Yu-Cheng; Wu, Yun-Chin; Lo, Ching-Teng
Over the past decade, excessive groundwater extraction has been the leading cause of land subsidence in Taiwan's Chuoshui River Alluvial Fan (CRAF) area. To effectively manage and monitor groundwater resources, assessing the effects of varying seasonal groundwater extraction on groundwater levels is necessary. This study focuses on the CRAF in Taiwan. We applied three artificial intelligence techniques for three predictive models: multiple linear regression (MLR), support vector regression (SVR), and Long Short-Term Memory Networks (LSTM). Each prediction model evaluated the extraction rate, considering temporal and spatial correlations. The study aimed to predict groundwater level variations by comparing the results of different models. This study used groundwater level and extraction data from the CRAF area in Taiwan. The dataset we constructed was the input variable for predicting groundwater level variations. The experimental results show that the LSTM method is the most suitable and stable deep learning model for predicting groundwater level variations in the CRAF, Taiwan, followed by the SVR method and finally the MLR method. Additionally, when considering different distances and depths of pumping data at groundwater level monitoring stations, it was found that the Guosheng and Hexing groundwater level monitoring stations are best predicted using pumping data within a distance of 20 kilometers and a depth of 20 meters.

<description>What Drives IoT-Based Smart Pet Appliances Usage Intention? The Perspective of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology Model
Chen, Chia-Chen; Lin, Chia-Pei
The advancement of IOT (Internet of Things) has facilitated the development of smart pet appliances, and the market for these products has growing rapidly, this study seeks to identify key factors for pet owner adoption of “smart” pet appliances. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) a wellestablished model in the field of IOT research is used as the main framework, integrating brand trust, perceived value and perceived enjoyment as the basis for hypothesis formulation and testing based on data collected through questionnaires distributed through online social platforms. Reliability analysis, validity analysis and structural equation model analysis were carried out through confirmatory factor analysis to test the variables and research hypotheses. Results for the UTAUT indicate that effort expectancy has a direct impact on performance expectancy, while performance expectancy, effort expectancy and facilitating condition all have a positive impact on intention. While social influence does not directly or significantly affect use intention, it can indirectly affect intention through perceived value and perceived enjoyment. Brand trust does not have a significant impact on use intention, but can indirectly affect use intention through perceived value. This study further compares user age and number of smart pet home appliances owned to better understand the impact of demographic factors. Findings indicate that, for users under the age of 30, effort expectancy has no significant impact on use intention, while brand trust has no significant impact on perceived value among users over 30. Among the research results based on age as a basis, the impact of hardships in the ethnic group in the age of 30 is not significant, nor do facilitating conditions or perceived value have significant impact on use intention. For users with one smart pet device at home, neither favorable conditions not perceived value have significant impact on use intention, while for users with two smart pet devices, perceived enjoyment does not significantly impact use intention. These finding have potential reference value for future related research in the IOT or smart pet home appliance research field.
