Abstract

The longevity of the network and the lack of resources are the main problems within the WSN. Minimizing energy dissipation and optimizing the lifespan of the WSN network are real challenges in the design of WSN routing protocols. Load balanced clustering increases the reliability of the system and enhances coordination between different nodes within the network. WSN is one of the main technologies dedicated to the detection, sensing, and monitoring of physical phenomena of the environment. For illustration, detection, and measurement of vibration, pressure, temperature, and sound. The WSN can be integrated into many domains, like street parking systems, smart roads, and industrial. This paper examines the efficiency of our two proposed clustering algorithms: Fuzzy C-means based hierarchical routing approach for homogeneous WSN (F-LEACH) and fuzzy distributed energy efficient clustering algorithm (F-DEEC) through a detailed comparison of WSN performance parameters such as the instability and stability duration, lifetime of the network, number of cluster heads per round and the number of alive nodes. The fuzzy C-means based on hierarchical routing approach is based on fuzzy C-means and low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) protocol. The fuzzy distributed energy efficient clustering algorithm is based on fuzzy C-means and design of a distributed energy efficient clustering (DEEC) protocol. The technical capability of each protocol is measured according to the studied parameters.

Abstract

Wireless sensor networks have become an emerging research area due to their importance in the present industrial application. The enlargement of network lifetime is the major limitation in WSN. Several routing protocols study the extension of lifespan in WSN. Routing protocols significantly influence on the global of energy consumption for sensors in WSN. It is essential to correct the energy efficiency performance of routing protocol in order to improve the lifetime. The protocols based on clustering are the most routing protocols in WSN to reduce energy consumption. The protocols dedicate to WSN have demonstrated their limitation in expanding the lifetime of the network. In this paper, we present Hybrid SEP protocol : Multi-zonal Fuzzy logic heterogeneous Clustering based on Stable Election Protocol (FMZ-SEP). The FMZ-SEP characterizes by four parameters: WSN segmentation (splitting the WSN into the triangle zones ), the Subtractive Clustering Method to determine a correct number of clusters, the FCM and the SEP protocol. The FMZ-SEP prolong the stability period and extend the lifetime. The simulation results point out that the stability period of FMZ-SEP. FMZ-SEP protocol outperforms of MZ-SEP, FSEP and SEP protocol by improving the network lifetime and the stability period.

Abstract

In the rapidly evolving landscape of financial transactions, the detection of fraudulent activities remains a critical challenge for financial institutions worldwide. This study introduces a novel bidirectional encoder representation from transformers (BERT)–long short-term memory (LSTM) hybrid model that integrates both textual and numerical data to enhance credit card fraud detection. Leveraging BERT for deep contextual embeddings and LSTM for sequence analysis, the model provides a comprehensive approach that surpasses traditional fraud detection systems primarily based on numerical analysis. On the validation set, the model achieved a recall of 100% and an accuracy of 99.11%, highlighting strong effectiveness in identifying fraudulent transactions under class imbalance. Through rigorous evaluation, the model demonstrated exceptional accuracy and reliability, promising improvements in fraud detection and mitigation. This paper details the development and validation of the hybrid model, emphasizing its use of mixed data types to capture complex patterns in transaction data. The results indicate a new frontier in fraud detection by combining natural language processing (NLP) and sequential data analysis to create a robust solution for real-world applications, supporting the security and integrity of financial systems globally.

Abstract

This study uses the open university learning analytics dataset (OULAD) to cluster student performance data to improve personalized learning. Three main aspects are the focus of the analysis: instructional involvement, behavior, and demographics. To create significant, comprehensible student profiles, the clustering algorithms k-means, k-modes, and k-prototypes were used for each dimension independently. In order to forecast student categories from input features, supervised classification models, such as support vector machines (SVMs) and random forests, were trained using these profiles as targets. Accuracy, F1-score, and cross-validation were used to assess the categorization models' performance. The outcomes demonstrate how well unsupervised and supervised learning strategies may be combined for adaptive learning. These profiles serve as a foundation for the future design of a multi-agent virtual reality (VR)-learning environment. In this envisioned system, specialized agents would handle behavioral adaptation, demographic personalization, and pedagogical coordination, offering a personalized learning experience tailored to each learner’s profile.
